ITV This Morning fans slam Ashley James over 'out of touch' heating comment

During Thursday's edition of This Morning, Ashley James and Nick Ferrari appeared on the show to talk about the current weather forecast.

TM: Ashley says she's heating on after cold summer weather

This Morning fans have criticised Ashley James after she made a comment about turning her heating on due to the cold weather. The presenter and model said that she's turned on her "Dyson heater" as temperatures plummeted this week.

The nation has experienced a very cold start to summer, due to air moving in from the Arctic. It is a massive contrast to last year when the UK experienced the hottest June on record.

Speaking about the cold, Ashley mentioned that she has put her children back in winter pyjamas and she has also "turned on her Dyson heater." This sparked fury with fans online who immediately picked up on the comment.

One person moaned on X: "Don’t mind me, darling, I was just cranking up my Dyson heater! #ThisMorning." A second person said: "Why did she have to say “Dyson heater” not just heater #Thismorning."

A third person also typed: "Got to be dyson," as another viewer commented online: "she had to mention her heater was a dyson one didn't she."

On Wednesday's edition of This Morning, viewers were left "disgusted" after a guest spoke about his unusual diet. Fans were left wanting to "throw up" after Weston Rowe ate raw chicken live on air.

The American guest, who tuned into the studio via videolink, spoke about the virtues of eating raw meat and was asked to perform a demonstration. Upon request, Weston got out a raw chicken leg and proceeded to eat it raw.

Many fans of the show took to X to vent their fury and disgust. One person moaned: "ThisMorning I’ve had to turn over, this man eating raw chicken almost made me throw up. It was disgusting. I don’t know who even thought of having this segment. So wrong!"

A second person chimed in: " We really should not be giving this character airtime. Eating raw chicken is absolutely ridiculous and ill advised. I’m wondering what he’s aiming for with all the carry on #thismorning."

A third person also typed: "Irresponsible showing this mad American eating raw chicken. Dr Zoe has explained why it's not safe, so why on earth have him on in the first place?! #thismorning."

This Morning airs daily at 10am on ITV and ITVX.
