She then told viewers after pausing and taking a deep breath: “This is going to be tough.”

Producers then cut out of the weather and muted Kimberley’s microphone as the Sky News logo flashed up on screen.

Announcing her departure, over the weekend, she said: “I’m leaving Sky News and heading off on a new adventure.

“More info on that to come – but please join me for #Breakfast tomorrow and mid-morning on Monday for my last shifts.

“And please do send pictures of where you’re watching from.”
