Hours later, the weatherman later ‘liked’ Maya Jama’s message on Twitter.
It was Alex’s first time back in the hot seat since his furious argument with Piers who walked off set and later quit the show.
Kate told him that it was “lovely” to have him back, but it was business as usual for Alex, with no mention of the dramatic run-in with his former co-star.
After Alex praised Kate following the airing of her Finding Derek documentary, she said: “And you’ve had tumultuous times as well Alex, it’s lovely to have you here, it very much is.”

He replied: “It’s good to be back.”
And Alex was soon up on his feet with a smile on his face to demonstrate his impressive hula-hooping prowess.
Piers sensationally stormed off set as Alex criticised his coverage of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s bombshell Oprah interview.

After Piers quit Good Morning Britain, Alex insisted there was no ill-feeling between the pair, saying: “I didn’t want him to quit – but I did want him to listen.”
He wrote on Twitter: “There’s so much that could be said. Piers’ departure sincerely wasn’t the conclusion I was hoping for.
“Over the last few years Piers and I have had a lively, cheeky on-air relationship.
“We both wanted to be on the show Tuesday morning and from our very public conversations on Twitter we both knew how strongly our opinions differed on the treatment of Harry and Meghan pre and post the interview that has split the world.
“I hoped we could reach a place of understanding. It’s sad that we weren’t able to get there but challenging his opinion was not an outrage. On this occasion we have to agree to disagree.

“I didn’t want him to quit but I did want him to listen. Personally Piers has always supported my growth.
“He’s given me advice on several occasions and for that I am grateful. I wish him well!”
