CAROL KIRKWOOD, BBC Breakfast weather forecaster, opened up about why she felt "loathed" to go to fellow meteorologist Michael Fish's birthday get together.
Carol Kirkwood, 58, revealed she felt "loathed to go" to her fellow weather presenter Michael Fish's birthday party one year and the tale as to why is rather tragic. The reluctancy stemmed from trauma, as the BBC star confessed she had been having a tough day.

Appearing on Bill Turnbull's new podcast Paws and Claws, self-confessed cat lover Carol, explained that the day she was due to celebrate her friend's birthday was the same day her beloved cat went missing.

She told listeners the upsetting story of how Angus left and never came back.

"We looked everywhere for him, we called him and nothing," she said, after revealing she realised something was wrong after he didn't run out to greet her like he usually did.

"We were going to Michael Fish's birthday party that night but I was loathed to go because there was no sign of Angus," she admitted.
