"As you have probably noticed we don't have the wonderful Laura Woods because she's just been taken ill but she's in very good hands so I'm stepping in at late notice,"
"She's in really good hands and we're wishing her a speedy recovery."
"Don't know what happened there with Laura Woods at the coverage of the Lionesses game on ITV4, but hoping she's ok."
"Full respect to the presenter who had to step in with zero notice after Laura Woods fainted,"
Laura Woods fainted live during ITV's coverage of the England vs Ghana match build-up, with pundits Ian Wright and Anita Asante catching her before the broadcast cut to commercials. Katie Shanahan stepped in as lead presenter at short notice, saying Woods had been "taken ill" and was "in very good hands" while receiving well-wishes. ITV has not issued a specific update on Woods's condition. Viewers expressed concern on social media and praised both Shanahan for managing the broadcast on zero notice and Wright for preventing further harm. Woods is a regular ITV presenter and gave birth to her first child in January.
