However, the ITV interview sparked a backlash from Good Morning Britain viewers, who slammed the “car crash” conversation and accused hosts Ranvir Singh and Ed Balls of asking the bereaved parents “ridiculous questions”. It comes a decade after Paralympian Oscar Pistorius shot dead his partner Reeva, and he claims to this day he believed she had been an intruder.
Reevea’s father Barry recently paid Oscar a visit in prison and talked about it had gone.
As the interview continued and Ranvir asked why June hadn’t joined her husband, some took to social media about the line of questioning.
Twitter user @Speedqueenie wrote: “What a ridiculous question #GMB,” while @Sweggers argued: “This is a car crash interview #gmb.”
@stua08115fumed: “Got to feel sorry for the Steerkamps but that was the most painful interview to watch. About 5 minutes too long and incoherent. In the attempt to be a ‘magazine’ programme you are really getting it wrong. #gmb.” (sic)
