BBC Breakfast host Rachel Burden caused quite the stir on social media when she posed for a behind-the-scenes photo ahead of going live on the morning show this weekend. 

The presenter looked unrecognisable when she unveiled a stunning new hairstyle, which saw her ditch her side-parting for a choppy fringe.

Posing alongside co-host Ben Boulos, she tweeted: "Look at us, all grown up in our big new studio. Grab a cuppa and come and join us @BBCBreakfast @BenMBoulos." 

Fans rushed to react to the transformation, with one writing: "I love your fringe, Rachel. It really suits you!" Another said: "Rachel must say your new hair style is fabulous and really suits you." A third follower said: "You're with me in the studio - you look like a movie star today x." 

A fourth post read: "The fringe. I love. It somehow makes your eyes pop more, younger, it gives all the 'stuff'. I know this was a tweet intended for studio admiration but... The fringe. I love it. Anyway, yes, the studio looks lovely #BackToTheFringe."
