Ed Balls has come under fire from Good Morning Britain viewers this morning after calling his co-star Charlotte Hawkins "podgy" in her first This Morning appearance. During Tuesday's show, GMB shared a throwback clip of Charlotte making her first This Morning cameo as a model decades prior.
"I think you've aged beautifully," he said. "I would say you look younger now than then, back then you looked a bit more podgy." An outraged Charlotte responded: "Podgy? We'll have words after this."
