BC Morning Live host Helen Skelton recently gushed over her co-star Gethin Jones in a wholesome social media post.
Last month (March 21), Helen, 41, and Gethin, 47, helped raise £34 million for Comic Relief for its 40th anniversary. The firm friends participated in the Wheely Big Challenge, in which they roller-skated nonstop for 24 hours.

Helen Skelton expresses her ‘love’ for Gethin Jones
After completing their mission, which saw Gethin suffer a nasty accident, Helen reminisced over their challenge with a sweet Instagram post.
In her upload, the former Strictly star – on screen currently with Easter on the Farm – shared clips of herself and Gethin skating. However, it was her caption that stood out with fans.
“Still not over it. Sorry…. Humbled by your generosity and so impressed the @bbcmorninglive team pulled this off,” Helen wrote.
“Raised over a million for some charities that lift all of our communities. Celebrated some unbelievably selfless people and their work. Broadcast live for around 26 hours. Shone a light on volunteers who deserve the credit. True privilege to be part of.”

Gushing about her “dear” skating partner, Helen praised Gethin, referring to him as “some man”.
You’re a legend and I am beyond grateful to have you by my side.
She continued: “I don’t publicly say often enough how much love and respect I have for you my friend because I assume it is well known, but for the record you’re a legend and I am beyond grateful to have you by my side on the rink, the sofa and beyond. I can gush he doesn’t read beyond one paragraph on an insta post.”
