GMB host Ben Shephard took to Twitter to share two pictures of Nick’s leaving breakfast.

In one, Ben was seen smiling alongside Nick and Susanna. In the other, Ben had swapped out Susanna and replaced her with Loraine.

He said: “Just had a lovely breakfast celebration of one of our amazing team who’s sadly leaving us. He will be missed by us all but fondly remembered.”

Ben then tagged Nick and the rest of the gang, saying: “Thanks @daytimefilm as @reallorraine + @susannareid100 I’m sure will agree, you are one in a million.”

‘We’ll miss you’

Ben also posted the picture on Instagram, calling Nick a “film guru”. He added: “Lovely morning, lots of smiles and memories. Good luck Nick, we’ll miss you.”

It’s not clear where Nick is heading off to work.

Ben’s last Instagram grid post was for an altogether sadder goodbye as he reflected on the death of Derek Draper. Ben has been supporting his friend Kate Garraway as she grieves her beloved husband.
