Charlotte had already stepped in for Matthew Allwright on his Channel 5 show last Friday. Now she has taken on an even bigger presenting role while Jeremy is away.
Alongside her long running role on Good Morning Britain, Charlotte also previously co-hosted Sky’s breakfast programme Sunrise with Eamonn Holmes.
A source told The Sun that Charlotte will continue working for ITV, but is enjoying the chance to “push herself”.
The insider added: “It’s a great step for Charlotte and shows just how much she is valued at 5 and trusted to step in when needed.
“She’s a huge talent and there is lots of exciting things coming up for her.”
Charlotte will continue hosting The Jeremy Vine Show on Tuesday and Wednesday this week.
Show producers ITN told TVGuide that Jeremy is on holiday. Isabel Webster will then take over presenting duties on Thursday and Friday until his return.
