Susanna quickly stepped in to rectify Richard's mistake, and the presenter promptly apologised to Gareth before carrying on with their chat.

In other parts of the programme, showbiz editor shared the delightful news that Peppa Pig's mum has welcomed her newest piglet, reports .

Richard announced that Daddy Pig had shared the joyous news with him at 5.30am, just before the ITV daytime show began.

He then disclosed that the little one is named Evie, a charming addition to the family.

Last month, the sex of Peppa's mum's unborn piglet was revealed, and Mummy Pig's news first broke on back in February.

At that time, Richard reported live that Mummy Pig, who does "very important work" on her computer, and Daddy Pig, who "takes big numbers, transmutes them and calculates their load-bearing tangents", were expecting another baby this summer.

Mummy Pig and Daddy Pig, already the doting parents to Peppa, aged four, and two year old George, have made an exciting announcement. Following the news, Susanna queried: "Do you know the weight?".

Richard responded: "I don't know the weight, I thought it might be a little bit invasive to ask at this stage."

To which Susanna retorted: "People always ask the weight."

Richard then quipped: "I was nearly 10 pounds, you can imagine, it was all head because I've always had a smurf like body."

As they concluded the breaking news segment, Richard announced: "Great news and we will catch up with Daddy Pig next week."
