Carol Kirkwood opened up about her health earlier this week after appearing to struggle with a hoarse voice. The weather presenter revealed that she has been suffering from a lingering cough after her BBC Breakfast co-star Sally Nugent pointed out her cracked voice during Tuesday's show. "Your voice nearly lasted to the very end there, Carol, well done!" said Sally, prompting Carol to say: "I know.
It's this pesky 100-day cough . It just keeps giving. It won't go.
" "Well get better soon," responded the host. Thankfully, Carol managed to make it through Tuesday's programme and by Thursday morning, gave a reassuring answer when host Charlie Stayt asked how she was. The update came after Charlie and his co-star Naga Munchetty reported on A-level exam results day and discussed options for students who aren't happy with their grades.
As their interview with careers advisor Mark Anderson and Ben Rowland, the chief executive of the Association for Employment and Learning Providers, came to an end, Naga reassured young viewers that they are not defined by their exam results. Reiterating Mark's advice, she said: " There is a lot more to you than your exam results . You are not defined by them.
It will be ok." Bringing Carol into the conversation, Charlie asked the weather presenter: "How about you, Carol? How are you?" Carol responded: " I'm very well, thank you, Charlie . I hope you are too.
" It's been an exciting time for Carol in recent months. Not only did she wed her partner Stev.
