The Strictly star revealed that racism plays a part in her daily life and that even her son, eight, has been the subject of abuse.
Chatting to her GMB colleagues, she became emotional as she said: "My son going to school, he's talked about the racism he's faced and he's gonna be nine and you think about it all the time. And you're privileged if you don't have to think about it and the only time you think about it is if one of your heroes is suffering."

Ranvir continued: "Andi [Peters, her GMB co-star] walks about with it all the time, whether he's talking about quizzes or whatever he's talking about, You can't shake it off and if you're in that position and you can act like you're functioning normally, but all the time it's there.
She added: "Privilege is having the choice, that's the privilege, and now I think we have to remove that privilege, we all have to think about it."

Their frank discussion came after Susanna read aloud Marcus Rashford MBE's social media statement, which he penned on Monday in response to the trolling.
Susanna said of the statement, in which the Manchester United forward apologised for missing the penalty but condemned the response from fans: "It's incredibly moving… I hope that in all the sewer of nasty stuff that every bit of inspiration that he's given - along with his colleagues - I hope they realise how many people love them, are proud of them and how many people they've inspired."
