Lorraine Kelly is reportedly taking an extended break from her breakfast ITV show after her recent operation.
The Scottish presenter, 65, revealed earlier this month that she was in hospital to undergo keyhole surgery after feeling unwell for “a little while”. Lorraine said: “I had some scans and tests and I have to have my ovaries and tubes taken out.”
As a result, she has taken a step back from presenting her self-titled ITV programme. Christine Lampard filled in today (May 8), speaking to Naga Munchetty about her incurable health condition.
Now, it’s been claimed that Lorraine Kelly is taking an extended break from her morning series and will also not be attending the upcoming BAFTA TV Awards.
