GOOD Morning Britain presenter Susanna Reid did what many fail to achieve by leaving Piers Morgan completely gobsmacked after she spoke fluent Dutch on today's show.

The mum-of-three, 48, revealed her secret language skills during one of her co-host's rants about football.

Piers, 54, was telling viewers about comments from Liverpool footballer Virgil van Dijk regarding an interview the ace had done at the Ballon d'Or footie awards last night.

The anchor had said his comments were "disrespectful" on his Twitter account, and shared Virgil's tweeted reply.

Talking about the chat, Piers said: "The trouble is its all in Dutch, so no one has been able to watch the whole interview or even understand it."

Mixing up his words, he added: "So we are going to have to try and find a Dutch supporting Liverpool fan," to which Susanna corrected him with: "Or a Dutch speaking Liverpool fan would be handy."

Piers continued to plead viewers to check out the clip and seemingly over-rode Susanna as she began talking in the different language.

When he realised she wasn't speaking English he stopped in his tracks, and turned to face her.

Looking bemused, he twiddled his pen as she continued, before frowning at the camera in confusion.

He exclaimed: "What?" before entertainment host Richard Arnold asked: "Do you speak a little Dutch?"

She replied: "Yes, a little Dutch," before giggling and adding: "Thank you very much."

Fans were equally impressed, with one writing on Twitter: "Another cracking start to the day with @GMB @susannareid100 speaking better dutch than Steve McClaren."

Another put: "Amazing Susanna, speaking in Dutch, that's fantastic, myself can only sing one song in German and words one to ten in French, that's all."
