Richard Madeley Shaves Off New Beard on TV

Richard Madeley, the 68-year-old presenter of Good Morning Britain, attracted attention for his new facial hair during the December 9 episode of the show, prompting a viewer poll where 66% voted against keeping the beard. Despite some fans praising his look on social media, Richard ultimately decided to shave it off before the show's end. His new look was first revealed at The Royal Foundation Carol Service, where he appeared dapper in a black coat and navy trousers alongside his wife, Judy Finnigan. The event, hosted by the Princess of Wales, focused on empathy and community kindness. Recently, Richard disclosed that he and Judy sleep in separate beds when he presents the show to avoid disturbing her sleep. Their long-standing relationship has been a topic of interest, especially since they met in the 1980s while working at ITV.
