Kate Garraway faces backlash over Jonathan Ross defence on GMB

Kate Garraway has faced criticism from Good Morning Britain viewers after describing Jonathan Ross’s response to past jokes involving David Walliams as courageous

During Thursday’s discussion, Baroness Ayesha Hazarika challenged the suggestion that Ross was unaware of allegations surrounding Walliams and convicted comedian Russell Brand

She pointed to a resurfaced comedy clip containing jokes about sexual violence and young women

Viewers argued that Garraway’s choice of language was inappropriate, particularly as Ross has acknowledged the old material was tasteless while distancing himself from the men’s alleged conduct.
