Cat Deeley admits to being 'rubbish' TV presenter – 'But no one's watching'

The TV star recently returned to British screens as the permanent host of This Morning alongside Good Morning Britain star Ben Shephard, taking over from previous hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield. Ben was forced to tell Cat to 'listen and stop talking' during one recent segment.

Cat, now 47, wrote in The Big Issue's Letter To My Younger Self column: "People forget, when we started SM:TV we were rubbish. And nobody watched it at all." "So we had this amazing luxury, where we were all learning together. And because we were surrounded by a brilliant crew it came together, there was a lovely chemistry between myself and Ant and Dec.Cat – who's married to TV presenter Patrick Kielty – went gone on to forge a career across the pond, being nominated for multiple Primetime Emmys since for her hosting on So You Think You Can Dance.

"I mean, I never went to America when I was a kid. I never went to Disneyland or anything like that, I'd never even seen it before. And when I did go, I never made a great proclamation: 'I'm going to crack America.' A relationship had just ended and I just fancied a fun adventure. It did feel crazy at times."
