BBC Breakfast's Naga Munchetty unrecognisable with long curly hair in throwback snap

Naga Munchetty can be seen sporting her chic bob on BBC Breakfast on TV in the mornings but the broadcaster looked very different in an unearthed throwback snap.

The 48-year-old has been part of our lives for over a decade and is well known for her cropped brown hair.

However, when she was younger, the presenter rocked gorgeous curly chin-length hair.

In November 2022, she showed up on Comedy Central's Rhod Ghilbert's Growing Pains.

The series has comedian and actor Rhod judging celebrities as they revisit their teenage years.

During the episode, a picture of Naga as a teenager showed up on the screen and she looked completely different.

Speaking about her teens, Naga said she was a "straight-A student". However, she added that "no one fancied her".

Rhod asked the newsreader about the love letters she used to send to one of her classmates.

She said: "Well, you call them love letters. I loved Prince and [my friend] loved Prince. So we used to write these letters to each other with all Prince lyrics."

A few days ago, fans of the BBC newsreader begged her to quit a 'filthy' habit after she shared a post-run selfie.

She posted on Twitter with her 278,000 followers and added a humble brag to confirm that she had completed a run.

Looking remarkably fresh-faced for having just been for a jog, the TV presenter told her fans that she hadn’t wanted to do it but had gone anyway.

She captioned the post: "Didn't want to. Did it. It's done. #run. Happy Friday."

While most of her followers praised Naga for looking so good after the exercise session, many scolded her for what they called a “filthy” habit.

One follower wrote underneath: "Please give up the cigarettes."

"I'm curious (not judging you) how many cigarettes do you smoke a day?", added another fan.

While a third person reprimanded her: "Disappointing to find out you are a smoker."

The comments came after pictures were released of her and co-host Charlie Stayt lit-up cigarettes during a well-deserved break in Manchester.
