At the end of 2021, after a decade in breakfast years as Good Morning Britain’s political editor, Ranvir Singh had hit a wall.
‘It was such an intense time in politics. I was at the White House, in Brussels every week for Brexit, there was the Jeremy Corbyn thing with Momentum [the left-wing organisation that supported the former labour leader]. Trump was tweeting every single day, I was in Helsinki one day, I’d be in Austria the next day. There was so much happening and I had a bit of a burnout,’ admits Ranvir.
‘I loved every second of it, but I thought, “I don’t think I can do another winter of it.” It was quite an intense platform and I loved it, but I had come to the end of my daily joy of covering that level of politics in that much detail.’
Feeling ‘very lucky’ that her ITV bosses were ‘willing to listen’ to her hunger for professional change, Ranvir, 45 – who left her radio and TV presenting job at the BBC before joining ITV’s Daybreak, which became Good Morning Britain, in September 2012 – subsequently moved on from her political duties. She is now a regular host on GMB as well as Lorraine, often covering for presenter Lorraine Kelly when she’s away on holiday. Then in October last year, Ranvir became the host of ITV’s new daytime quiz show Riddiculous, which returns for a second series in early 2024.
