Charlotte Hawkins has taken to social media to share some "exciting" news with fans.

The Good Morning Britain star logged into Instagram account on Saturday (July 19) to announce that she's filmed an episode of BBC's The Weakest Link.

She shared a series of snaps from behind-the-scenes of the iconic quiz show which will air later this year.

Charlotte filmed alongside the likes of Coronation Street actress Sue Cleaver, Strictly Come Dancing's Nicola Adams and comedian Josh Widdecombe.

She captiined her post: "Some exciting filming - taking part in The Weakest Link! Just a bit terrifying... you'll have to watch later in the year to see how we all did! #weakestlink #quizshow #quiz."

Her post was quickly inundated with messages from fans, with one writing: Great photos and looking fab."

Another added: "You are absolutely brilliant Charlotte Hawkins." A third person said: "Probably smashed it."

A fourth social media user said: "I'd say you did alright looking at that pic."

It comes after Charlotte issued an apology to a Good Morning Britain guest live on air after she became emotional during an interview.

During Tuesday's (July 15) show, Charlotte and co-host Richard Madeley spoke to a man called Tristan, who recently lost his wife to breast cancer.

Before her death, Dr Susan Michaelis campaigned for there to be research into lobular breast cancer, after living with the disease for 14 years.

While speaking to Tristan on the show, it seemed as though Charlotte was overcome with emotion as the interview wrapped up.

Tristan commented: "Thank you to all the women who have this disease, for giving it some airtime." Richard replied: "Oh, it's you that deserves the thanks."

Charlotte added: "Thank you for coming in when this has only just happened, and you know, I know that obviously, you were supremely proud of her and everything she was doing."

However, as the ITV star was speaking, it was clear she was getting emotional as her voice started to break, holding back tears.

She continued: "I know she would be so proud of you continuing this fight. Sorry, it's one of things that have effected a lot of people this morning."

Tristan told the two presenters that the Lobular Moon Shot Project is the most politically supported campaign there is and he won't stop until the money is given to the researchers.

His wife, who sadly passed away earlier this month, founded the Lobular Moon Shot Project back in 2023 to try and raise £20m in funding to go into research for the biology of invasive lobular breast cancer.

Good Morning Britain airs weekdays on ITV1 and ITVX at 6am
