BBC Breakfast host Sally Nugent was left concerned for her co-star Jon Kay during the morning show on Wednesday after the pair discussed an adorable turtle named Nazare
BBC Breakfast’s Sally Nugent was quick to show her concern for co-host Jon Kay after they covered the story of Nazare, a loggerhead turtle found on a Cumbrian beach and later released back into the sea. The touching moment of Nazare’s release was shown to viewers, leaving Jon visibly emotional.
Sally pointed out: “What a great story, oh you look a bit sad!” Jon admitted he was moved by the handler in the video who missed saying goodbye to Nazare, saying: “It’s heartbreaking!” Sally comforted him, noting that Nazare was now free, with Jon adding: “fingers crossed.”
She observed: “No algae, no nothing, she looks great!” They told viewers they’d catch up with Todd German from Sea Life Scarborough for more on Nazare, as reported by the Express.
In a playful banter, Sally joked about whether Nazare had been in contact, while Jon jested: “She doesn’t write, she doesn’t call, she doesn’t email, nothing!” They both laughed as Sally wrapped up: “She’s living her best life, having a fabulous time.”

The segment revealed that Nazare, the turtle, was discovered by a dog walker in a dire state, covered in cuts and algae, barely clinging to life, before her astonishing recovery.
But it turns out this wasn’t Nazare’s first rodeo with humans. Scott Blacker dished the dirt to the BBC on her past captivity stint, thanks to the satellite tracker on her shell, reports the Mirror.
He spilled the beans: “We found out that she was released from the coast of France from La Rochelle aquarium where she had been rehabilitated in June 2023.”

It comes after Jon admitted: “I can’t believe this!” over a segment on Monday’s (September 16) programme. Left baffled that some people would purchase luxury advent calendars for up to £640, he fumed: “I can’t believe this! I cannot believe this, people saying they pay £40 even just seems an extraordinary amount of money.”
Sally joked: “Jon can barely look! Look at Jon’s face!” as he joked: “I just told Sally I’ll make her one just like you used to make in the old days.”
