Lorraine Kelly has been on our screens for forty years. First as a reporter with TVam, and then a presenter on the TVam sofa with Mike Morris. She was kept on as main presenter with GMTV, given her own show in 1995, and has presented “Lorraine” ever since.
Lorraine was awarded an OBE by the Queen in 2012 for her services to charity and a CBE by Princess Anne in 2020 for services to broadcasting, and BAFTA has announced that she will be presented with a BAFTA Special Award at the forthcoming BAFTA Television Awards in May. The BAFTA Special Award is one of BAFTA’s highest honours, recognising an outstanding contribution to film, games or television.
Lorraine lived in Cookham Dean for 12 years and her daughter Rosie was born in High Wycombe hospital and attended Herries Primary School. She now lives in Bourne End with her husband Steve and their border terrier Angus. She is honorary colonel of the National Cadets and supports Dundee United Football club.
Lorraine has written her first novel “The Island Swimmer” a Sunday Times best seller which is set
in Orkney, a place she loves to visit, and where she and Steve go every year.
