GMA’s Ginger Zee shares her plight of leaving son for ‘work' in cold
The ‘GMA’ star shared a carousel post on her Instagram with the first snap in the post, capturing her in almost a snooze state, trying to keep herself awake early in the morning.
Zee wore a yellow, white, black, and gray striped wool coat and looked a bit tired on air.
While sharing screenshots of the national weather map and discussing the dropping temperatures throughout the country, she also took a moment to admire the beautiful sunrise.
Alongside the captivating photo, she opened up about her son Miles. It appeared that she had to head to work even though he wasn't feeling his best, making her departure a more challenging task.
She captioned her post, “Sleepy or frozen? Gorgeous sunrise as some record lows are falling across the south and the coldest air of the season filters into the northeast now.”
Zee added, “And I am definitely sleepy…little guy got sick and had us up late. Always so hard to leave but especially when they're feeling icky.”
The ‘GMA’ meteorologist usually travels a lot due to her work which keeps her away from her children. Though she didn't reveal what was making Miles feel down, she seemed eager to get back home to him.
