PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA: 'GMA' host Janai Norman who is mostly seen covering the weekend show has made a rare appearance on a weekday to cover the tragedy of the Philadelphia bridge collapse. She made a rare appearance on a Monday, June 12 morning only to be a bearer of the bad news. 

Janai's love for journalism begins at a very young age and she not only hosts the weekend show but is occasionally seen at 'GMA3'. She also fills in for the weekday morning show sometimes but is mostly seen during the weekends.

What was Janai doing in Philadelphia?

Janai made her way to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to deliver the news about the bridge collapse and the way it will impact the city and its residents. A tanker truck overturning caused the fire that started on Interstate-95 on Sunday, June 11 morning. The vehicle and the bridge caught fire as a result of it. The I-95 crash wrecked the road, stopped traffic, and merely led to confusion for the tourists. The situation, which Janai described as a "traffic nightmare," is anticipated to endure for quite some time.

Apart from her professional appearance, Janai is happy and doing extremely well in her personal life it seems. She announced her pregnancy back in April but that did not stop her from undertaking extra roles and engaging in travelling whenever necessary. She first shared the news on 'GMA' while discussing more intricate topics on her educational show 'Oh! Baby'. She revealed details of her pregnancy via People magazine with her husband Eli Norman. 



 

Janai has expressed her happiness at having a third child and clarified how she was constantly manifesting motherhood once again. She showed her excitement while revealing the news and also mentioned that viewers may have already noticed her baby bump before even making an announcement.
