<\/p>\nTelevision presenter Kate Garraway has disclosed that she is seeking an ADHD assessment following discussions with musician Cat Burns whilst recording Celebrity Traitors.<\/p>\n
The 58-year-old Good Morning Britain anchor recognised potential symptoms of the neurodevelopmental condition after speaking with Ms Burns, 25, who has both ADHD and autism spectrum disorder.<\/p>\n
During their time filming the BBC programme, Ms Garraway discovered parallels between her own experiences and those described by her co-star.<\/p>\n
The broadcaster told The Sun on Sunday: “Talking to people like Cat about their music and about their life — she’s autistic and ADHD and I’ve got that in my family.”<\/p>\n

Ms Garraway revealed she has already begun the diagnostic process and believes the outcome is fairly certain.<\/p>\n
“And actually, I’m in the process of an ADHD diagnosis myself. In fact, I think it’s pretty clear I am,” she stated.<\/p>\n
The presenter expressed particular interest in understanding how the condition presents itself in Ms Burns’ daily life. “So it’s fascinating to see how it manifested for her,” Ms Garraway added.<\/p>\n
ADHD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, affects brain function and typically involves challenges with concentration, heightened activity levels and impulse control.<\/p>\n
