The Millie and Liam interview on This Morning today (Friday, August 27) got off to a bad start when Ruth Langsford made an awkward blunder.
The 61-year-old presenter spoke to Millie Court and Liam Reardon the winners of reality dating show Love Island.
However, things didn’t go quite to plan.

Millie and Liam were involved in a dramatic storyline when Liam snogged another contestant – Lillie – in Casa Amor.
Ruth’s co-presenter Eamonn made light of the incident.

He said to the couple: “Before you’re too hard on him, Millie and Lillie sound alike and you look alike.
“In fairness, it could be have been a mistake that anybody would have made.”
Ruth then said that Millie “obviously doesn’t think that” before confusing the two in her next question.
She called Millie, Lillie!
