Lorraine Kelly was left in tears by guest Paris Lees
ITV star Lorraine Kelly was reduced to tears during her show today, when author Paris Lees stopped the live broadcast to issue an emotional message to the presenter.
Appearing on Lorraine to promote her new BBC drama What It’s Like for a Girl, Paris ended her interview by thanking Lorraine for her work with the transgender community. “There is so much hostility for trans people in the trans community at the moment and you’ve been consistently an ally.

“We see you and we really appreciate it, you really use your platform for good” Paris said, to which Lorraine responded: “You’re going to make me cry.”
Paris continued: “Honestly, not everyone is there speaking up for us. We’re less than 0.5 percent of the population and we are under attack. You are using your platform for good and you are a friend.
“I should have brought some flowers or something. I hereby declare you an honorary diva.”
Lorraine could be seen wiping a tear from her eye as she said: “I’ll take that!”
Last week, Lorraine appeared to drop a defiant message to ITV bosses about the survival of her show amid cuts that will see it be slashed to a 30 minute runtime just 30 weeks a year.
Speaking to Tom Kerridge on the Proper Tasty podcast, she said: “40 years in TV last year was incredible. I got a BAFTA. ‘Here’s a BAFTA for being alive.’ I thought, ‘Hang on a minute, I’m not done yet.’
“I think now I can be a lot cheekier. Because I’ve always been a bit naughty. Not so much in the morning, but if I do a wee show on Channel 4, or The Last Leg, or something like that. You can be unleashed. And I quite like that. You do have to have a self-edit button, and I’m finding mine is not operating as much as it should.”
Meanwhile, ITV launched a brand new channel this week despite making a string of cuts to its Daytime offerings.
The brand launched ITV Quiz – a channel dedicated to airing ITV quiz shows including Lingo, Tipping Point, Wheel of Fortune, Tenable, Deal or No Deal and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. The channel will airs quiz shows every day from 8am to 1am.
