Naga Munchetty has said she 'hated' to see people bullied at school after it was revealed she allegedly bullied a junior staffer on BBC Breakfast last year.

In an interview days before the allegations against her resurfaced, the presenter, 50, had said she battled against rude comments made about her appearance and talent.

The TV and radio host from south London said: 'I was no angel but I hated seeing people bullied.

'I remember there were a couple of kids in school who were bullied and I just hated it.

'So I'd always kind of be that person who would speak to everyone.'
