Chaos at Good Morning Britain: Susanna Reid and Ed Balls Forced to Flee UK in Shock US Election Shake-Up

In a dramatic last-minute twist, Good Morning Britain has been thrown into chaos as beloved presenters Susanna Reid and Ed Balls announced they are being whisked away from the UK in a high-stakes shake-up that kicks off Tuesday morning.

The pair dropped the bombshell live on air during Monday’s episode, confirming that they’ve been ordered to “grab their bags and go” — jetting straight to Washington D.C. to front ITV’s special US Election coverage.

As America prepares to decide its next leader — with Kamala Harris and Donald Trump vying for control of the White House — Good Morning Britain is tearing up its usual format to deliver rolling coverage from the heart of the action.

At the end of Monday’s show, Ed Balls turned to Susanna and declared: “Susanna, grab your bags — we’re about to go.”

The 53-year-old news veteran added with a knowing smile: “Tune into Good Morning Britain tomorrow — live from Washington.”

No Sleep, No Comfort — Just Breaking News

Speaking to the Radio Times ahead of their whirlwind trip, Susanna revealed:
“Ed and I are flying straight out to Washington D.C. after Monday’s show.

We’ll be soaking up the atmosphere and presenting the results programme on Wednesday morning.”

She added bluntly: “It’ll be one of those weeks where sleep takes a backseat.

When you’re covering a story like this, the adrenaline just takes over.

There’s no time to rest.”

Strictly Come Dancing Scandal Casts a Shadow

The timing couldn’t be more intense for Susanna, who only days ago broke her silence on the Strictly Come Dancing bullying probe that has rocked the BBC.

Reflecting on her 2013 experience on the show — where she reached the final with partner Kevin Clifton — Susanna told The Times:
“I had such a great experience with him.

But it’s like being on a different planet, because everything sparkles — so it’s a shame when it doesn’t for other people.”

She added pointedly: “If people have had a bad experience, it absolutely needs to be addressed.”

Cold Distance from ITV Colleagues

Susanna also didn’t hold back when asked about working near ITV’s controversial This Morning set — still reeling from the Phillip Schofield scandal.

When questioned about Schofield’s recent survival show on Channel 5, Susanna cut straight to the point:
“I didn’t watch it.

And I don’t know him.”

Her blunt response highlights the frosty distance many at ITV are keeping from Schofield following his shock exit in May 2023, after admitting to an inappropriate relationship with a much younger colleague.

A Week of High Drama Ahead

As America heads to the polls and the world waits with bated breath, Good Morning Britain is preparing for one of its most ambitious broadcasts yet.

No script.

No comfort.

No sleep.

Just breaking news, raw emotion — and perhaps the most unpredictable US election night in modern history.

Susanna Reid and Ed Balls are ready.
