This Morning hosts announce guest is getting married
During Thursday's episode of This Morning, host Craig Doyle paused the show for a heartwarming moment. Craig and his co-host Josie Gibson were chatting with individuals affected by the recent riots' fallout.
Liverpool's community was rocked when a beloved local library and hub was set ablaze, prompting Alex McCormick to spearhead a fundraising campaign, amassing £200,000 for repairs.
In the midst of their conversation with the 27-year-old activist, Craig steered the discussion in a celebratory direction.
He excitedly interjected: "We're celebrating the feel-good on This Morning today, Alex, we're celebrating a real feel-good this weekend. A little birdy tells me you're getting married in a couple of days, is this right?", reports the Mirror.
A bashful Alex confirmed her impending nuptials, saying: "Yes, I am on Sunday!"

Josie expressed amazement at Alex's dedication to her community service despite her approaching wedding.
The presenter remarked: "You've got all this to sort out before your wedding on Sunday?! Sorry, this has happened at this time for you."
But Alex appeared unfazed, responded: "No, you know what, luckily the wedding was nice and organised anyway."
She added: "This has been a really nice, positive week in the run-up to the wedding, seeing how communities come together, I wouldn't have it any other way."
Josie, in agreement, emphasised the power of community during challenging times. She told Craig: "When we come together, we make great things happen!"
As their chat with Alex came to a close, Craig swiftly wished her well for her upcoming Sunday nuptials, telling the 27-year-old: "Have a great day!"
Over the past few days, ITV viewers have seen Josie and Craig take the helm as regular hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard enjoy their summer break.
The new duo has been a hit with the audience, with many calling for them to become the permanent faces of the show.
One viewer remarked: "Can we just have Craig and Josie, Alison and Dermot to host #thismorning permanently."
Another fan suggested: "Should make Craig and Josie permanent."
A third viewer shared: "Really like Craig and Josie partnership .. it's been refreshing having different people again these past couple of weeks ..much better than Ben and Cat."
While another added: "Love Josie and Craig on #ThisMorning, so much wit and warmth."
However, next week will see a change as Rylan Clark joins Josie to present the ITV show.
This Morning continues weekdays on ITV from 10am.
