GOOD Morning Britain's Ranvir Singh was left red-faced today as she was video called by her eight-year-old son live on air.

"My son's nearly nine," said Ranvir.

"It's not the physicality of the work, it's the brain work. You think you've switched off at 9pm, but in your head you're still figuring out everything."

Host Susanna Reid agreed, adding: "Childcare, school arrangements, homework... all of that stuff.

"Obviously lots of dads do that too, that's not exclusively women's work. But the domestic work does tend to fall on women."

"Sorry I feel like I've brought my entire domestic life into the studio this morning."

She joked: "Might as well do a bit of ironing while I'm here."

The presenters had been discussing former Prime Minister David Cameron's wife Samantha revealing he liked employing women because they are perfectionists who “work harder” than men.
