The American country singer was being interviewed by the presenters on the ITV show this morning (12.11.15) when she made the embarrassing mistake.

Ben said: "She [Susanna] has been singing [country] all morning. It makes a change from 'Frozen' to be honest, it's a blessed relief."

And Carrie, 32, laughed: "Are you one of those households?"

While also laughing Susanna, 44, corrected Carrie, saying: "We're not married by the way."

The 'Jesus Take the Wheel' hitmaker was so embarrassed, she quickly replied: "Oh oh, I know..."

And if things couldn't get anymore awkward, Ben cheekily added: "Sometimes it feels like [we're married]."

Carrie then quipped: "Oh, she is your work wife."

Ben and Susanna - who have been co-hosts on the show for over a year - then continued to bicker about the Disney film.

Ben, 40, said: "We both have got boys. None of her boys like Frozen, it's just her that likes 'Frozen'."

Susanna disagreed, adding: "My boys like 'Frozen'. There is nothing wrong with boys liking 'Frozen'."

Ben has sons Jack and Sam with wife Anna Parks, while Susanna has sons Jack, Sam and Finn with ex-partner Dominic Cotton.
