The journalists host the show every Thursday to Saturday.

But in the week – they rival Good Morning Britain which is fronted by former BBC host Susanna Reid.

Now the pair have broken their silence about the competition between both shows and ‘revealed what they really think.

“I think competition is great,” Charlie told Radio Times.

“I don’t think any morning TV programme is arrogant enough to think the whole audience only wants to see them. But we stick to our ethos, and it resonates with our audience.”

Naga also added: “We are all journalists trying to facilitate the telling of a story. Good luck to them.”

BBC Breakfast’s ratings are much higher than those on Good Morning Britain.

Susanna previously presented on the famous red sofa from 2003 to 2014 before moving on to host the ITV news show.

Naga also hit back at BBC viewers who often criticise her outfit choices on the show.

She revealed that she buys her own clothes to present the show and this leads viewers to comment on what she wears.

The star also shared how she often gets comments on her hair – as she is the only woman with short hair on the show.
