BBC Breakfast host Naga Munchetty was forced to apologise today after laughing at a guest's joke about being diagnosed with cancer.
The presenter was joined on the morning show by cancer survivor Laura Nuttall, her mum Nicola and her sister Gracie.
The family were on the show to discuss her journey and the proud achievement of graduating from university with a 2:1.
However, Naga was left embarrassed and quickly apologised after laughing at the guest's quip about her cancer battle.
The three women sat alongside Naga and Charlie Stayt on the red sofa and explained the highs and lows they experienced before and during her diagnosis.
"It was horrible," Gracie explained, touching on how far her sister had come and the close bond they had.

"It was literally the worst moment ever, but to watch her go up on those stairs and get to graduate makes everything worth it."
The sisters were noticeably emotional during the interview, as Naga asked: "Are you two much closer now?"
Without a thought, Gracie exclaimed: "Yeah," before Naga continued: "Were you properly like butting heads before?"
"We were really competitive and it just sort of all changed," added Gracie as Laura chimed in: "The dynamic changed."

Profusely apologising, she added: "I'm so sorry, I can't believe I am roaring, but that was very funny."
