Jon and Sarah have not addressed the reason for Sally’s absence on Wednesday’s show.
Sally has remained silent on social media about not appearing on the programme at this stage.
During the latest episode, weather correspondent Carol Kirkwood highlighted how wet and chilly the weather was around the country.
Elsewhere, Jon Kay probed Health Secretary Steve Barclay on the “explosion” in vaping in the UK.
The politician replied: “The best thing we can do is stop children from smoking, but also, we need to tackle the way that vapes are being targeted at children specifically.”
Jon replied: “Children are being told it is bad for them and there is a crackdown but at the same time you are saying that vaping can be useful in stopping adults from smoking. It’s confusing mixed messaging from the government!”
“We want to stop children from smoking, but we want to make sure they are not marketed to children,” the Health Secretary replied.
BBC Breakfast airs daily on BBC One from 6am.
