Dan Walker has slammed ‘morons’ on Twitter who have been trolling his former co-star.
BBC Breakfast star Nina Warhurst is the business and consumer presenter of the show – but unfortunately has fallen prey to trolls.

Ignore them. Your worth is not measured by this sort of guff.
You’re brilliant at your job, great to work with and you always look classy.
Got to go… need to spend an hour with the glute machine. https://t.co/uGW2zr835J
