The 50-year-old finance expert - who founded the website MoneySavingExpert.com - will present the show alongside Susanna Reid on various Wednesdays this year, and Martin is already looking forward to his new role.

He said: "To have the ability to hold politicians to account, over the cost of living, is a privilege and a responsibility.

"It’s a slight gear change from my usual work, but after years of answering complex questions, it’s nice for once to be asking them. So I was delighted when ITV offered me the role of regular presenter."

The financial expert plans to combine his role on the ITV show with his "day-job".

He shared: "The difficulty came with working it around my day-job, as Money Saving Expert, which is always my priority. So I’m hopeful the solution we’ve come up with, to lock in a dozen special shows a year, sitting alongside Susanna Reid’s brilliant journalism, is one the show’s viewers will welcome."

Susanna is also looking forward to working alongside Martin on a more regular basis.

The 52-year-old presenter - who joined 'Good Morning Britain' in 2014 - said: "Martin Lewis is undoubtedly the voice of the nation when it comes to the cost of living crisis. Together we will continue to challenge politicians and hold them to account.

"I can’t wait to have him sitting next to me again at the 'Good Morning Britain' desk from next week."

Meanwhile, Emma Gormley, the managing director ITV Daytime, is similarly excited about the appointment.

She said: "As 'Good Morning Britain' continues to answer the questions the nation wants and needs answering each weekday morning, we’re thrilled to welcome Martin Lewis as a regular co-host."
