This Morning host Craig Doyle made a personal announcement about his mum on Wednesday

This Morning star Craig Doyle received a heart-warming show of support from his co-host Rochelle Humes on Wednesday (May 28) as he shared news of his mother being in hospital.

On today’s episode of the popular ITV show, Craig and Rochelle delivered the latest updates from the UK and around the world.

Following a chat with Deirdre Sanders about the upcoming phone-in segment on in-law issues, Craig took a moment to send his best to his mum in hospital.

Deirdre said: “We’re here to help with any in-law problem,” prompting Craig to jest: “Don’t know what she’s talking about. My in-laws are perfect, morning Dorothy.”

Craig quickly added: “Can I say hello to my mum who’s in hospital. Hello mum, how are you? Have you got the sound up? Good girl,” reports Wales Online.

Rochelle chimed in with a warm message: “Hello mum! Hope you’re good. Love her.”

The duo were filling in for regular hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard, who are taking a break during the half-term holiday. Earlier in the week, Paddy McGuinness and Alison Hammond had taken the reins.

At the beginning of today’s programme, Rochelle praised Craig for his achievement in last month’s London Marathon.

“You’re stuck with Craig and I today, sorry about that,” she said, before turning to Craig: “How are you? I’ve not seen you for a little while and we’ve got a lot to catch up on.

“Since I’ve last seen you, you’ve taken on a big challenge and absolutely nailed it… The London Marathon.”

A photo was then displayed showing Craig proudly posing with his medal, alongside EastEnders icon Adam Woodyatt and TV host Jenni Falconer.

“Ah fantastic! [Jenni] had to have her knee up because it was sweaty day, let’s just say,” Craig shared about the marathon experience.

“I haven’t done one in about 20 years and I thought I was the same as I was 20 years ago, I’m definitely not. It was really, really tough, so congratulations to all of you who finished the marathon… I was slow, I enjoyed it, the crowds were unbelievable.”

In other segments of today’s programme, Craig and Rochelle spoke to renowned opera singer Lesley Garrett, who revealed her private struggle with cancer.

Additionally, Race Across the World contestants Fin and Sioned stopped by the studio to discuss the latest developments in the popular BBC travel show, while Sharon Marshall delivered the latest soap news directly from the set of Emmerdale.
