Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid have long had a love-hate on-screen relationship.
But on Wednesday’s Good Morning Britain all kinds of lines were crossed as they described kissing and holding hands.
It was part of a racy segment on fan-fiction after Susanna admitted she Googled “Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid fan fiction” during a taxi journey.
Just minutes into the show, Susanna admitted she’d been chatting to a friend on Tuesday night about E.L. James, who has wrote sexy fan-fiction.
Piers, 53, added: “Susanna sent me this breathless WhatsApp message, very overexcited.”
The 47-year-old explained: “This opened a whole new world to me yesterday. Apparently, if you’re a fan of characters in films or books, people go online and write fantasy stories about them. And I said to my friend, ‘Does that happen to anybody you’re a fan of? And she said, ‘Yes, it probably happens with you and Piers.’
“So of course in the cab on the way home, I Googled Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid fan fiction.”
“And what did we find, Susanna?” Piers asked, amused.
The pair described a few different stories about them, including one called “The Lonely Road” where Piers has “a secret”.
Susanna interrupted, saying: “Let’s get to the one called Love and Hate.”
Charlotte Hawkins added: “Yeah, that’s the juicy one! You’ve got to read it in the right way.”
The dad-of-four told viewers: “It’s so close to home, it’s almost painful.”

In a deep voice, the mum-of-two described: “I feel Piers whispering slowly in my ear.” Real-life Piers leaned in to recreate the line as she moved away, shrieking: “Nooo, it’s fiction!”
He continued reading: “Whilst on air, Susanna felt Piers wrap his fingers round hers under the desk.
“They glanced at each, both blushing slightly. Well, so much for secrecy, right?”
He continued reading: “Susanna calls Piers, ‘Snugglebear’, and tells him: ‘You look so handsome, cutie pie’.”
Real-life Susanna shrieked again: “It’s fiction,” as she gagged and pretended to be sick.
He continued reading: “‘You’re mine, Reid’, I kiss her lips. ‘Susanna, we could have thousands of little Piers running around’. ‘See you tomorrow darling,’ she says as she leans her chest against his and says, ‘Bye baby.’
