Kate Garraway asks 'what's happening' as live GMB news report thrown into chaos
Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway was left asking 'what's happening' as a live report was thrown into chaos on Thursday
Kate Garraway found herself battling distractions on Thursday's Good Morning Britain when a live news report went unexpectedly off-script.
During the latest instalment, Kate, 58, spoke to Chief Correspondent for Good Morning Britain, Richard Gaisford, live from Istanbul.
They were talking about the reports that Russian President Vladimir Putin won't be travelling to Turkey for peace talks with Ukraine, despite calls from President Zelensky for him to attend.
During the serious broadcast, however, a group of seagulls began to disrupt the segment as they loudly squawked and made dramatic dives towards Richard.
Kate was compelled to say: "Fascinating report as always Richard on a very serious subject but I can't help but be slightly distracted.
"Do you have a bag of chips hidden by your feet or something? As you appear to be dive bombed, what's happening with the seagulls?", reports Devon Live.
Richard then clarified: "I'm on a rooftop here, overlooking The Blue Mosque, and yes people are feeding the seagulls.
"So many TikTokers, Instagrammers, surrounding me here Kate while I try to talk about something just a little more serious."
Ever professional, Kate replied: "Thank you very much indeed, professional as always!".
It comes hot on the heels of confirmation that Kate will participate in The Celebrity Traitors, lining up alongside other stars such as Jonathan Ross and Stephen Fry - to name a few.
Only last month, rumours of Kate joining the show emerged, particularly as she took some time away from her usual spot on Good Morning Britain.
During a cheeky segment on Good Morning Britain in April, the presenters were musing over rumours swirling about The Celebrity Traitors' potential cast list.
Showbiz reporter Melvin Odoom joked: "None of us have been able to get hold of Kate on the phone to confirm or deny this but I don't know about you guys, but I'm very suspicious and it makes me even more suspicious."
His banter led Susanna Reid to quip: "She'll make an excellent Traitor if we can't even get hold of her!" which prompted Melvin to suggest: "I think you need to send her a message right now!" with Susanna playfully hitting back: "She'll neither confirm nor deny, I'm sure!" as Melvin pushed: "Let's do it anyway!"
Rising to the challenge, co-host Richard Madeley didn't hesitate to grab his phone and ping Kate a text live on air.
With Melvin eager for an update, questioning "Have you done it?" Richard replied, "Yeah...", and later grilled further by Melvin asking: "Nothing yet?"

Kate makes hands-on visit to examine museum's exhibits
Kate visited the new V&A East Storehouse in London's Stratford to learn about its 'order an object' system where paintings, furniture, books and sculptures can be requested and a room set aside for viewing with staff. With a keen interest in the arts and a love of the natural world, she choose a number of items themed around nature, a large William Morris samples book, rolls of ornate textiles and a musical instrument for the private moment. The Princess of Wales with (left to right) Oriole Cullen, the senior fashion and textiles curator, and Kate Parsons, the director of collections care and access, with a 19th Century riding habit (Eddie Mulholland/Daily Telegraph/PA) More than 500,000 creative works, from individual items to whole collections like the Glastonbury festival archive, are stored at the site, the majority of the V&A's collection. Kate, patron of the V&A, told its deputy director and chief operating officer Tim Reeve 'it's so eclectic' as they stood in a huge space housing objects around them adding: 'It's all part of the process of displaying and curating.' The princess wore a smart trouser suit for the visit to the storehouse in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and wore stiletto heels despite the attraction's website advising on flat shoes as the 'metal grid flooring is not suitable for stilettos or kitten heels'. Mr Reeve said later about Kate: 'It's clear today she really loves the idea of what we're trying to do, show that back-of-house world and to be a member of the public seeing that behind-the-scenes experience is what this is about. 'She's obviously fortunate to see quite a bit of the back-of-house world, but I think she really understood today that she was sharing it with the public, everyone is seeing the same space, everyone has that privileged access to our collection.' The Princess of Wales in the photography studio (Eddie Mulholland/Daily Telegraph/PA) Commenting on the items Kate had asked to be shown, he added: 'I did have a look at what was laid out, and some amazing things as always, an amazing musical instrument, there's lots of stuff that's related to nature. 'One of the things I saw that she'll be super interested in is this big William Morris fabric sample book, it's an enormous thing and you can sort of flick through.' Items stored at the site include a drum kit used by Keith Moon, former drummer with The Who, examples of Queen Elizabeth II's dresses designed by Norman Hartnell, and from September David Bowie's archive, donated by his estate, will be available. She began her visit by viewing with V&A director Tristram Hunt a table, wardrobe and corner cupboard designed by art historian and artist Roger Fry, who influenced the Bloomsbury artists, and made by his Omega Workshops. Later Kate put on a purple rubber glove to handle a 19th century female riding habit – skirt, waistcoat and jacket – and marvelled at its red colour as she touched its lining and was also shown an Alexander McQueen dress coat. The Princess of Wales is shown around the V&A East Storehouse (Eddie Mulholland/Daily Telegraph) Photographer Sarah Duncan talked Kate through the process of taking an image of ballet shoes worn by Alicia Markova, when she danced the lead role in the 1934 production of Giselle, and was told 'you want scratches to shine' as the image would document the item. In another part of the building, the princess chatted to Christina Juan, lecturer and head of the Philippines department at the School of Oriental and African Studies, who happened to be in the room next to Kate's private viewing and was examining delicate fabrics from the Philippines. The lecturer was studying turban scarves from the 1850s and said later: 'I told her they were made from banana leaves. She was just surprised at the sheerness of the cloth and asked was it still made.' She said about the process of seeing the items: 'It's amazing I can just go online and order – it's very easy, like ordering an Uber.'
