Last Wednesday she appeared briefly on GMB to apologize for not being on air.

Reid said, “I’m fine, I just can’t talk.”

“I do not know what happened). I don’t know if it was the heat wave that ignited my vocal cords?”

“It’s funny because last night was the NTAs and when I got in my taxi to leave the driver said you’re the very first person to leave the NTAs, you’re obviously not partying!?”

“And of course I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, so there’s absolutely no reason why I can understand that I’ve lost my voice.”

“I’m really sorry, all I can do is apologize, but thank you Charlotte for stepping in. I didn’t do anything for three hours to do this to our wonderful viewers.”
