Susanna Reid hit out at Prince Harry 's request for privacy after opening up in a live therapy session that people could pay to watch.
In the Duke of Sussex's latest interview, he spoke with physician and author Dr Gabor Maté in a virtual event that was available to stream online.
During the conversation he spoke about his use of psychedelic drugs and the war in Afghanistan in an event that focussed on "living with loss and the importance of personal healing".
As Susanna and co-host Richard Madeley discussed the topic, the former hit out at the suggestion the event could be labelled an "interview".
"It's not an interview," Susanna remarked. "It's a live therapy session.
"It was a live streamed therapy session... the complaint about invading privacy becomes weaker and weaker when you allow a live streamed, ticketed, paid for event which is about as intimate as you can get discussing your own personal thoughts with a counsellor."
The GMB presenter went on to suggest the reason behind the event may be "to normalise therapy and for Harry to see himself as someone who’s de-stigmatising the discussion of mental health".
When Harry and Meghan Markle's Netflix docu-series was released, the couple released a statement asserting that they had never "cited privacy as the reason" for stepping back from the royal family.
It read: "This distorted narrative was intended to trap the couple into silence. In fact, their statement announcing their decision to step back mentions nothing of privacy and reiterates their desire to continue their roles and public duties. Any suggestion otherwise speaks to a key point of this series.
"They are choosing to share their story, on their terms, and yet the tabloid media has created an entirely untrue narrative that permeates press coverage and public opinion. The facts are right in front of them."
Meanwhile, during Harry’s conversation with Dr Gabor, it was suggested that the prince has attention deficit disorder (ADD).
The author of The Myth Of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing In A Toxic Culture, told Harry that he made this deduction after reading his memoir Spare.
"When I read your book as a clinician – you can agree or disagree – but I come up with several diagnoses that seem to go on in the book," he said.
"Whether you like it or not, I diagnosed you with ADD, okay? It takes one to know one, I share that diagnosis."
Good Morning Britain airs on ITV on weekdays at 6am.
