Mark Ronson 'came out' as a sapiosexual live on today's Good Morning Britain.

The chart-topping record producer revealed he identifies as a sapiosexual after a debate on the subject earlier in the show.

A sapiosexual is someone who finds intelligence sexually attractive and arousing and is attracted to smart people.

GMB hosts Ben Shepherd and Kate Garraway congratulated the chart-topping producer for being "out and proud".

Ben said that it was great news particularly considering Mark's "heartbreak' over his split from ex-wife Joséphine de La Baume.

The couple split in 2018 and the divorce inspired some of his new album Late Night Feelings, which features collaborations with Camila Cabello and Miley Cyrus.

GMB presenter Kate revealed Mark had got very involved with the sapiosexual debate and was identifying as a man who likes intellect.

He confessed: "I didn’t know there was a word for it. I was really enjoying that segment. We were arguing back in the dressing room with a couple of your producers.

Joyous Kate said Mark was "out and proud", while Ben said: "This is great news. Congratulations. Especially post the heartbreak."

The topic came up after French minister Marlen Schiappa was mocked for calling herself sapiosexual.

Mark, who won an Oscar this year with Lady Gaga for the 'A Star is Born' soundtrack, was also asked about pal Miley Cyrus' split from Chris Hemsworth.

Not wanting to reveal much, he awkwardly said: "Miley is a friend of mine and I have been there for her but I don't know too much about it."

Mark revealed he was "doing alright" when asked about his divorce from Joséphine.

He was previously engaged to actress Rashida Jones in 2003 and dated Saturday Night Live crew member Rebecca Schwartz recently.
