GB News’ Ellie Costello has shared some glorious snaps one day into her dream honeymoon.<\/p>\n

The Breakfast presenter gave a sneak peek into the start of her exotic holiday on Wednesday as she sat onboard the plane,<\/a> and followed up with more photos of the exciting escape today.<\/p>\n

It comes after Ellie informed viewers on Tuesday that she’d be stepping away from the show to jet off for her safari with husband Gerard Durkan.<\/p>\n

Speaking on air alongside Eamonn Holmes, she explained why she and Mr Durkan were setting off on their honeymoon six months after their big day.<\/p>\n

“We had to have this gap because we got married six months ago, and you all know it was an extravaganza in South France,” she told viewers.<\/p>\n

“Yes I went to your three-day wedding,” Eamonn responded.<\/p>\n

“And that took so much planning because there wasn’t a wedding planner. I was the wedding planner and it took it out of me,” the presenter admitted.<\/p>\n

She continued: “It knocked the stuffing out of me. So then for the honeymoon, which I’m also planning, I was like, ‘I need to give myself some time to plan this, right?'”<\/p>\n
