TALKTV presenter Kate McCann has broken her silence after she collapsed live on air during Tuesday's Tory leadership debate

The TV host released a statement on Twitter the following day revealing that she would return to the show on Wednesday evening for "unpicking the debate with some new polling".

The update comes after Prime Ministerial hopeful Liz Truss was forced to dramatically stop mid-answer during a TV debate on Tuesday when an off-camera "medical issue" shocked viewers - and the candidate herself.

After the programme came off air, TalkTV updated viewers that McCann was fine but had been medically advised not to continue the debate.

On Wednesday, the presenter herself addressed fans: "Well that wasn't how last night was supposed to end!

"Thanks everyone for the lovely messages- I'm fine now - and apologies to @trussliz and @RishiSunak for cutting the debate short.

"Tonight I'll be unpicking the debate with some new polling from 7pm ( ...yes, sat down!)."

The incident brought a dramatic reaction from the Foreign Secretary, who threw her hands to her face and looked concerned.

Truss, who was taking part in a debate held by The Sun and TalkTV, uttered a dramatic "oh my God" as viewers heard a crash in the background of the broadcast this afternoon.

She moved towards the scene of the disturbance before the cameras cut from the live feed.

Following the news, many viewers, and the candidates involved, sent well wishes to the presenter hoping for her quick recovery.
