DAN Walker has been a much loved member of the BBC Breakfast team since 2016 alongside Louise Minchin.
However fans have been left wondering why the broadcaster is not hosting the show today.
Where is Dan Walker and why is he not on BBC Breakfast today?
Dan Walker, 43, and Louise Minchin, 52, usually host BBC Breakfast on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and Charlie Stayt, 58, and Naga Munchetty, 45, present on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.
However, Dan has been absent from our screens this week.
Dan presented the breakfast coverage of the Olympics alongside former hockey gold medallist Samantha Quek.
After bringing us all the live action form Tokyo, Dan has taken a well-earned break from Breakfast to spend time with his family.
Who has replaced Dan Walker on BBC Breakfast?
TV regular Charlie Stayt has stepped in to take Dan’s place on BBC Breakfast.
Charlie usually presents the BBC morning news show with Naga from Thursday to Saturday.
Charlie and Dan’s usual presenting partner Louise kicked off BBC Breakfast in the usual style by reading out the morning’s headlines.
Stayt joined BBC Breakfast back in 2006 as a relief presenter, before moving with the programme to Salford.
When will Dan Walker be back?
Don’t worry, Dan is just taking a little bit of time off from his morning presenting duties and will be back on our screens very soon.
A return date for Dan has not been announced just yet.
However, the popular presenter, who has been announced as joining the line-up for Strictly Come Dancing 2021, is expected to return to the show in the next few weeks.
