Naga Munchetty apologises to BBC Breakfast co-star Carol Kirkwood live on air after ‘sinister’ comment

Naga Munchetty apologised to weatherwoman Carol Kirkwood live on Thursday’s episode of BBC Breakfast after admitting to making a ‘sinister’ comment.

The TV star, 50, returned to screens to present the morning programme alongside her co-star Charlie Stayt, 62. 

With just an hour to go until the episode wrapped up, Carol, 63, then featured to inform viewers with what to expect from the weather. 

The weather lady explained that Friday will start with rain, but some areas could reach as high as 25 degrees.

After wrapping up the segment, Naga said: ‘I’m liking your numbers Carol.’

‘Thank you Naga,’ Carol said back with a smile on her face. 

Charlie couldn’t contain his emotion and burst into laughter back in the studio. 

Naga said: ‘That sounded sinister, didn’t it?’

Carol replied: ‘It did. I don’t know what is coming next!’

Naga cheekily said back: ‘Ah well we have another hour together. We shall see.  See you later!’

Carol put her hand on her face as the presenters giggled away in the studio. 

Naga and Charlie present BBC Breakfast Thursday to Saturday while Jon Kay, 55, and Sally Nugent, 53, host the programme every Monday to Wednesday. 

Sundays are usually presented by step-in hosts. 

With just an hour to go until the episode wrapped up, Carol returned once more to inform viewers with what to expect from the weather

Earlier this month, Naga opened up about the  years of experiencing ‘extreme pain’ after being a victim of ‘medical misogyny’ on Lorraine.  

She appeared on the ITV show to chat to step-in host Christine Lampard, 46, about her condition and her new book.

Naga was diagnosed with adenomyosis in November 2022, but had been suffering with symptoms since the age of 15, but felt as if she wasn’t being listened to and it took 32 years for her to get a diagnosis.

Adenomyosis, which affects one in ten women in the UK, occurs where the lining of the uterus starts growing into the muscle in the wall of the womb. 

On Wednesday, Naga took to Instagram to celebrate her appearance at Hay Festival in Hay-on-Wye, Wales. 

The star shared some snaps on her account and said: ‘Last weekend, almost 1,700 people joined me at @hayfestival to discuss women’s health and my new book, It’s Probably Nothing.

‘It was an insightful and pᴀssionate discussion on why women’s pain and symptoms have historically been ignored, and what we can do to advocate for ourselves in the healthcare system.

‘Thank you to everyone who came to the event, and @hayfestival for having me. 

‘It’s Probably Nothing is now available online, in all good bookshops, and in ebook and audiobook.’

Many rushed to the comments section to share the love. 

One said: ‘Fantastic book and such great advocacy, Naga.’

‘You were awesome.’ ‘Amazing.’ 

BBC Breakfast airs on BBC from 6am.
