This Morning's Vernon Kay predicts Tess Daly 'row' as he's left speechless by studio gift

Vernon Kay predicted a 'row' with wife Tess Daly over a special gift he received on Friday's This Morning.

Before Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby finally return to the ITV daytime show next week, after a long break for summer, former Family Fortunes host Vernon has been presenting with Rochelle Humes, with the duo the last combination to be at the helm, after a summer of shake-ups in the studio.

And there was a special treat for Vernon when he and Rochelle were joined by one his childhood heroes, wrestling legend Triple H, live in the studio. Huge wrestling fan Vernon was barely able to contain his excitement as he sat opposite the world famous star, waxing lyrical about how much he used to love watching him and the likes of The Ultimate Warrior, Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage in action as a youngster.

Triple H was in the studio on the eve of the massive Clash at the Castle in Cardiff on Saturday, the first WWE event of its kind in the UK in 30 years, featuring the likes of Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns.

And, after Vernon hung on his every word during the interview, Triple H had a surprise for him and Rochelle when he presented them with their own wrestling belt. Triple H said the hosts would have to share the belt or 'fight it out' to decide who gets it but, well aware of his excitement, Rochelle was happy to give it to a delighted Vernon.

He quickly took it and held it up against his stomach and then, after the show returned from an ad break, Vernon told Rochelle his phone had been going mad with messages from friends insanely jealous that he'd met Triple H.

Talking about how wife and Strictly host Tess would react added: "Me friends are saying 'oh you've got to get that up on the wall.' As if Tess is going to let me put that in the front room! If it was my choice, of course it would be; it would be up above the fire place!"

Rochelle replied: "I think I'm with Tess on that one!"
