Singing legend Bonnie Tyler has divided This Morning viewers after a performance on the show.

Bonnie joined presenters Josie Gibson, 38, and Craig Doyle, 52, at the end of Wednesday's show to discuss the musician’s new memoir.

The singer, 71, reflected on her career that spans almost five decades and includes hit songs such as Holding Out for a Hero, Save Up All Your Tears and Two Out of Three Ain't Bad.

Taking to the stage after her interview, fans were no doubt anticipating getting to hear the icon belt out the absolute banger that is Total Eclipse of the Heart.

However, things took a turn during the performance as viewers took to Twitter to share their disappointment as they claimed it appeared Bonnie had been miming.

However some fans came to Bonnie’s defence.

One wrote: “leave bonnie tyler alone she has been singing that song for 40 years straight and she couldnt be bothered to sing it today #ThisMorning.”

“Love Bonnie Tyler, ‘Total Eclipse Of the Heart’ is a timeless song. Beautiful as ever,” added another person.

And a third viewer wrote: “Love Bonnie Tyler. What a character. Still on the road living her best life. Tune!”
