On Tuesday, Charlotte Hawkins channeled a strong monobrow look on Good Morning Britain in honour of guest Sophia Hadjipanteli – a model renowned for her full brows. And Charlotte's new appearance caused quite the reaction, especially from her former Strictly Come Dancing partner Brendan Cole. After Charlotte shared a photo of herself rocking the monobrow on Instagram, Brendan joked: "I've never fancied you more!" Other celebrities were also quick to comment, with Celebrity Juice host Keith Lemon branding her: "Still fit."
The TV presenter was joined by her co-hosts Susanna Reid and Piers Morgan – who too worked the monobrow look. Model Sophia was on the show to talk about her career, and revealed that she had even received death threats because of the way she looked. However, she has also won over legions of followers for promoting body positivity.
