BBC Morning Live host Helen Skelton gushed over her co-star Gethin Jones in a wholesome social media post.
Last Friday (March 21), Helen, 41, and Gethin, 47, helped raise £34 million for Comic Relief for its 40th anniversary. The firm friends participated in the Wheely Big Challenge, in which they roller-skated nonstop for 24 hours.

After completing their mission, which saw Gethin suffer a nasty accident, Helen reminisced over their challenge with a sweet Instagram post.
In her upload, the former Strictly star shared clips of herself and Gethin skating. However, it was her caption that stood out with fans.
“Still not over it. Sorry…. Humbled by your generosity and so impressed the @bbcmorninglive team pulled this off,” Helen wrote.
“Raised over a million for some charities that lift all of our communities. Celebrated some unbelievably selfless people and their work. Broadcast live for around 26 hours. Shone a light on volunteers who deserve the credit. True privilege to be part of.”
