'Rosie's far more sensible than me!'

Catching up with Lorraine Kelly is a joy. The ITV daytime host is as bubbly in person as she is on screen. And while she enjoys a break from her daily chat show Lorraine over the summer, we seize the opportunity to find out more about her home life and her relationship with her journalist daughter Rosie.

Lorraine, 63, and Rosie, 29, enjoy a very close bond and work together on the likes of Channel 4’s Celebrity Gogglebox and their podcast, What If?

“We do get on well,” says Lorraine. “It’s a good dynamic, it really is. She’s far more sensible than me! I didn’t go to university to do journalism but she did, so I think she knows a wee bit more than I do.”

The star adds, “All you ever want for your kids is for them to be happy and for them to have lots of pals and to be content. Contentment is very underrated.

“We do see a lot of each other, but she’s got her own job, her own life, her own career. Although we do sit down and watch Married At First Sight together, which is bonkers. Oh my God, it’s nuts! And she gets me into things like Below Deck and all of that.”

We’re curious to know what kind of mother-in-law Lorraine would make – Rosie is in a long-term relationship with James Bannister – and whether her chilled persona is just for the cameras. But she assures us that what we see is the real thing, saying, “I treat everyone the same and I’d say I’m quite easy-going.”
