BBC Breakfast host Naga Munchetty says 'big mistake' as co-star makes blunder

host could not resist commenting as she playfully pointed out her co-star Sarah Dawkins had made an amusing mishap during a live report.

Naga, who is a keen runner, and her co-star Charlie Stayt had been busy discussing the impressive statistics after the hobby of long distance running had proved to be way more popular than it ever had before.

They had disclosed on the programme that the London Marathon had already seen over one million people register to take part in the 2026 event, proving that the sport had caught the attention of more people than ever before.

Sarah, had been reporting live from central London, hoping to give an insight into why the sport had gained significant take up in recent times.

She had joined the Runners and Stunners Run Club, who were "gearing up and doing their stretches before a run through the city," and wanted to understand the hype.

After speaking to a number of participants, she returned to the hosts back in the studio, as Naga highlighted a blunder she had made.

Naga said: "Sarah, did you take your trainers?" The host added: "Are you joining in?" After a brief moment of pause, Sarah confirmed: "Erm might have left those at home this morning... Sorry Naga."

Back in the studio, Naga let out a huge sigh as she said: "Big mistake," before thanking Sarah for her live report.

Meanwhile, away from the cameras, Naga opened up in an interview with the Times about maintaining relationships with co-stars revealing her on-screen friendships may not be as they seem.

Naga, who stars alongside Charlie on the iconic red sofa said: "Oh you can fake it, of course you can." She went on to comment: "You wrestle with egos all the time, in front and behind the camera. Know your worth."

Yesterday, Naga was flooded with support from BBC Breakfast fans following a "brave" health admission.

Naga, who recently launched her book, It's Probably Nothing, lived in pain for 32 years before being diagnosed with adenomyosis.

Alongside an extract from her latest interview, Naga shared an update with her followers on social media following her book release.

"I am delighted to be featured in the Sunday Times with my book, It's Probably Nothing," she wrote.

"This interview was published on Sunday, and highlights my own experience and what I have learned from those of the many incredible women, their loved ones, and professionals who contributed to this book.

"Here is a preview of the interview in the @sundaytimesmagazine @thetimes, and an extract from my book that lands next week on May 8th."

She added: "I hope you will enjoy this, and share it with anyone you think might need it and appreciate it."

In the comments section, one fan wrote: "Incredible book. And you are a Wonder Woman for being so generous in sharing your story."

"Good move, Naga. My daughter-in-law had a hysterectomy, and she is not free of symptoms. Make sure plenty of people know," a second penned.

While TV personality Vicky Pattison simply commented: "What a woman."
