GMB's Richard Madeley reveals horrifying injury live on air after falling over on holiday in France

GOOD Morning Britain anchor Richard Madeley sparked fan concern after returning to the ITV series with a hugely painful injury. The former This Morning anchor, 69, was back on-screen alongside Susanna Reid, 54, for Monday's episode. 6 Richard Madeley sparked concern with his appearance on Good Morning Britain on Monday Credit: Rex 6 The 68-year-old anchor was seen wearing a cast Credit: ITV 6 He told how he has a double fracture of the wrist Credit: ITV Yet fans of the early-morning show were left worried after noting the broadcaster was clad with a huge cast on his right arm. The white plaster support could be seen peeking out of Richard's smart black suit as he fronted Good Morning Britain from his regular spot on the desk. Others also noted his voice sounded husky and "digitised" amid his injury woe, which he outlined at the top of the show. Susanna said: "Richard you better explain," to which he replied: "I thought you were going to say did I have a good break!" read more gmb After the pair giggled, he continued: "It's a double fracture of the wrist. "I was walking quite quickly down a steep pavement in France on Friday, and the pavement was loose. "It flipped up and it flipped me forward and I thought am I going to win or will gravity win? "And gravity won and I hit the ground hard. Most read in News TV "So yeah I've got a double fracture and we'll see how it goes." After issuing a supportive "aww," Susanna then quizzed: Is it sore at the moment?" Richard Madeley was facing GMB axe before crunch talks as another HUGE star 'is set to leave ITV' amid cuts bloodbath The brave host said: "I'm not discussing the pain threshold we just don't think about pain." One ITV viewer took to X to write: "Awww Madeley has an owie." A second put: "Is Richard channeling his inner Keith lemon this morning with his bandage?" The Sun has gone to GMB for comment.

TOUGH TIME The injury comes amid a rough time for Richard and a slew of ITV broadcasters. It comes amid a huge shake up of the daytime TV offering at the channel. We were first to report how In May, sources say Richard was told his contract, worth a reported £300,000 a year, would not be renewed on current terms when it expires in December. He hit back and negotiated a new deal with bosses — but it will mean a significant cut in his hours and pay. A source said: 'This one has really rocked the ITV corridors because Richard is such a big name and a legend of daytime telly. it became apparent Richard had a meeting with the network's most senior bosses and he's now being kept on in a more part-time role. 'He's got himself back on the show — but his hours are significantly cut.' Richard made an unexpected return to daytime telly in 2021 after Piers Morgan left GMB in a row over Harry and Meghan. He had co-hosted ITV's This Morning with wife Judy Finnigan for 13 years from 1988 to 2001. They had been the golden couple of daytime telly and it was thought both were happy to enjoy retirement at their homes in London and Cornwall. But He quickly established himself as a popular face on the breakfast show, building up a warm rapport with his co-host and taking on the main male anchor role. TV SHAKE UP Former MP Ed is set to be kept on, despite some viewers criticising the show for having a conflict of interest when he has been interviewing his former Labour political colleagues. Ed, who became a presenter on the GMB rota in 2022, has been pulled out of the studio in recent months when there is an interview with his wife, Home Secretary ITV bosses announced that Lorraine, shown on weekdays from 9am to 10am, would GMB will also be extended. 6 Susanna asked her co-host if he was in pain Credit: ITV 6 He soldiered on with the day job Credit: ITV 6 It has been a tough time for Richard and GMB as a whole of late Credit: Rex

Katie Price declares 'Jordan is back' as old alter-ego helps up bag lucrative AI deal

Katie Price is officially bringing back her old alter-ego Jordan while becoming the first British celebrity to trademark an artificial intelligence version of herself. The 47-year-old reality TV star has signed a deal with American firm OhChat, which describes itself as "the leading platform to live out your uncensored dreams through AI-powered text, voice and images." As part of the agreement, the mum-of-five had to record 30 phrases to say so that the company could develop an AI version of her. Promotional videos shared on social media including YouTube and Instagram show Jordan - her former glamour modelling persona - saying in a voice similar to Katie's: "It's Jordan here. No more looking at those cheeky mags." After confirming that the launch date is tomorrow, June 9, she promises fans: "You can have me all for yourself." The launch comes months after rumours began spreading that Katie was hoping to revive Jordan in a bid to emulate the early days of her career when she was best known for topless modelling.

She told The Sun : "Jordan's back and now I'm in competition with Jordan. I love it and they've really captured my voice and personality - you see me moving and everything. It's scarily weird but fascinating." Katie added: "I couldn't be more excited to bring back the iconic Jordan, someone who I hold near and dear to my heart, and who my fans have been asking to see again. From my digital twin styling to its tone of voice, I wanted to be involved every step of the way to create the most authentic experience possible for my fans. Jordan is back, and my fans will absolutely love this." Promotional videos have been shared online (Image: katieprice/ohchatai/instagram) Meanwhile, a source told the newspaper that using AI allows Katie to "go back in time and bring back Jordan." The insider explained that she owns copyright but the deal allows her image to be used for anything from TV shows to OnlyFans - but she doesn't need to do it by herself, as it's all done for her. According to the source, Kate is also planning to do a photoshoot standing next to Jordan - and even do a TV special where she interviews her alter ego. Describing the new business venture, the insider said it is "all really exciting, if a bit surreal." We reported on rumours that Katie was looking to revive Jordan in a bid to regain her fortune back in September 2024. The former model was a prominent figure in the UK's glamour scene in the 1990s, amassing an estimated £45million fortune. However, her career and finances have declined in recent years, with Katie being declared bankrupt twice.

A source told The Sun last year: "Katie is desperate to go back to the glory days and is convinced a return to her glamour modelling roots will make it happen." However, the insider added: "But she doesn't seem to understand that times have changed and there isn't an audience for Jordan these days." In the 1990s and early 2000s, Katie appeared on the covers of various magazines, including Loaded, Maxim, FHM, and American Playboy. She "retired" the Jordan persona after meeting her first husband, Peter Andre , in the I'm a Celebrity jungle in 2004. Katie shifted her focus to launching novels, beauty products, fragrances and electricals. After three divorces, Katie has found it challenging to sustain a career that once saw everything she touched turn into gold. In 2019, Katie was first declared bankrupt, owing creditors £3.2million, and then again last year due to an unpaid tax bill of £760,000. Her Mucky Mansion near Horsham, West Sussex, was repossessed after she failed to meet mortgage repayments, and she has been instructed to pay 40 per cent of her earnings to creditors.
