Emily Morgan's death has been confirmed by the broadcaster on Saturday evening - with the health and science editor being key to their coverage of the coronavirus pandemic
Emily was the broadcaster's health and science editor, playing a major role in the channel's coverage of the coronavirus pandemic.
"As our Health and Science editor, Emily played a pivotal role in shaping our coverage through some of the most important stories of our time, including her courageous reporting through the COVID-19 pandemic, visiting hospitals and health care workers on the front lines, and sharing their stories with our viewers.
"Our thoughts are with Emily’s family. Emily was proud to be a journalist, but she was even more proud of her family. She adored them. We are sending them our love and support at this unthinkably difficult time. Jonathan Munro, Director of Journalism and Deputy CEO of BBC News, wrote: "The death of Emily Morgan deprives us all of an intelligent, probing, empathetic journalist.
"Emily’s impact extends to the wider ITN family; she devoted her energy and skills to ITN for over two decades. Those of us fortunate enough to have worked alongside her would agree that Emily cared deeply about everything she did, and her dedication was as clear behind the scenes as it was on screen."
