Exclusive: Lorraine Kelly confirms mystery bug after being sent home to recover
Lorraine Kelly surprised ITV viewers when she was mysteriously forced to drop out of her hosting duties last minute.The beloved presenter, who was swiftly replaced by Ranvir Singh for three days last week, has confirmed she fell ill with norovirus, which saw her turn a "greenish putty colour" moments before she was due on-air.In the video below, Lorraine opened up about her contracting the virus, and how one particular star became the perfect remedy.I've been doing breakfast TV for almost forty years, but last week was the first time ever I had to be sent home from my work!I felt a bit queasy in the car on the way in but thought I would be OK once I had some breakfast and a quick coffee. Sadly, when I was in our morning meeting I went a sort of greenish putty colour and thought I was going to pass out.Worried that it might be a bug I could pass on, we all agreed (reluctantly) that I should go home.I was so disappointed as I'd obviously done all my homework for the show and was really looking forward to it.
