Susanna Reid has opened up about her close bond with her former Good Morning Britain co-host Piers Morgan as she revealed he still watches the show.
The TV presenter, 53, had credited the journalist, 59, for making her a 'better and tougher broadcaster' as she explained how they are still personally connected.
Speaking on their friendship during an interview with The Mirror, Susanna said: 'I am still friends with Piers. We were doing a story about potholes last week. I got a text from Piers saying: "You are currently filming in the car park next to my home in Sussex. I can tell you personally what the potholes are like."
'So he still watches and tells me what he thinks. And, look, we are personally still very connected. He played a massive part in our show's success. I've got a huge amount to thank him for. He made me a better broadcaster. He toughened me up. I didn't just go on air and spar with the guests, I sparred with Piers.'
Piers left the show in 2021 after the presenter and ITV decided to part ways following a row over comments he made about Meghan Markle.

However, Susanna insisted she has no plans to follow her former colleague out of the door and admitted she would stay on the show until they no longer wanted her.
She said: 'I love it. Honestly, there is no better job in broadcasting. Every day, you turn up at the same time and finish at the same time. But what happens between 6am and 9am is always different. It's so dynamic. You feel like you've had a workout every morning. You can do anything once you've presented Good Morning Britain.'
It comes after Susanna admitted that she was 'worried about Ofcom' an episode of Good Morning Britain in March. The presenter made the comments after making an on-air blunder while doing the news bulletins.
On the show discussion turned to who would be the next James Bond after reports emerged that Aaron Taylor-Johnson is now the front runner for the role.
After reporting the claims Ranvir Singh said of Aaron: 'I don't think I've seen any of his films!'
Susanna them quipped: 'I've seen Kick-Em' - referring to Aaron's appearance in the 2010 film Kick-Ass.
'That's not that name of the film!' a shocked Ranvir then replied after Susanna censored herself.
'I know,' Susanna then said, before adding: 'I'm just worried about Ofcom!'

Later on during the chat, Susanna added: 'I'll tell you who will be relieved about this Bond news - Idris Elba. He's asked about playing Bond in every interview he does.'
Aaron 'has been formally offered the opportunity to play James Bond', putting an end to months of speculation regarding Daniel Craig's successor.
The actor, 33, is yet to officially accept the role, but should he do so he will become only the seventh actor to play the iconic British secret agent since the franchise launched in 1962.
A recent poll suggested Idris Elba was still the public's number one choice for the role, despite being 51 - old for a Bond candidate - and already ruling himself out of the running in order to focus on his crime drama, Luther.
But Aaron, who is known for his roles in Nocturnal Animals, Kick-Ass, Nowhere Boy and Avengers: Age of Ultron, has landed the coveted part, reports The Sun.
A source said: 'Bond is Aaron's job, should he wish to accept it. The formal offer is on the table and they are waiting to hear back.

'As far as Eon is concerned, Aaron is going to sign his contract in the coming days and they can start preparing for the big announcement.'
Responding to the rumours that he could step into Bond's shoes last week, Aaron played coy, telling Numero: 'I find it charming and wonderful that people see me in that role. I take it as a great compliment.'
He began acting as a child and has seen his career go from strength to strength, with three huge film appearance this year alone.
Aaron will be starring as a famous action star who goes missing in The Fall Guy, opposite Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.
And he will also be appearing in the hotly anticipated remake of 1922 gothic horror Nosferatu, directed by Robert Eggers and featuring a star-studded cast, including Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp and Willem Dafoe.
But Aaron's biggest upcoming role will see him rejoin the superhero universe, as he will be playing the titular role in Kraven the Hunter, the fifth film in Sony's Spider-Man Universe.
He also has been nominated for two BAFTAs and previously won Best Supporting Actor at the Golden Globes for Nocturnal Animals.

The Bullet Train star's name has been in the running for Bond for a while now, alongside fellow A-list contenders like Tom Hardy, Henry Cavill and recent Oscar-winner Cillian Murphy.
In October last year, the Mail exclusively revealed that Aaron was the 'one to beat' to take the iconic role, while Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan was looking likely to helm the next film in the franchise.
The insider said: 'Aaron Taylor-Johnson is currently the hot favorite to step into the iconic role, he's the first choice for Barbara Broccoli – he is the one to beat.'
They added of Christopher: 'He is extremely interested in doing something very different with the franchise. If he can get his way with producers, then he is all for it.'
