TV host Piers Morgan celebrated his birthday today live on Good Morning Britain (March 30).
His co-host Charlotte Hawkins gave him a birthday card, designed by her five-year-old daughter Ella Rose.
The adorable card showed a detailed drawing of Piers at his desk, with especially large hair.
Due to current coronavirus measures, Piers Morgan was not expecting many cards.
He admitted Ella Rose’s was his only birthday card this year and he was extremely grateful.
Piers went on to say: “Even my mother texted to say me she’s not getting me a present.
“Lockdown is not an excuse!”
Happy Birthday @piersmorgan! I obviously can’t get to a card shop at the moment so enlisted the help of my 5 year-old Ella-Rose. I did tell her the head should be bigger but I think she nailed the hair… 😂🥳 pic.twitter.com/qU0Dr6UbLp
