Lorraine Kelly refuses to grow up and reveals why she plans to work for another 30 years

Instead of presenting her chat show until she is in her nineties, Lorraine Kelly claims she has no plans to retire and that she “won’t grow up.”

The TV host received a BAFTA award for her outstanding contributions to television last year as she celebrated 40 years of her career. But she won’t be giving up right away.

Lorraine, a 65-year-old ITV star, said: “I couldn’t give up the show because I loved it. I would do it until I was 95. Why wouldn’t I skip to work when I had the chance to do so without sounding like Snow White? I was initially a little anxious, but now that I’m over it, I can’t stop worrying. I’m responsible for giving them the best possible appearance. It’s irrelevant if you’re Meryl Streep or a young woman who has accomplished incredible things.

“Of course, there have been storms and a lot of regime changes along the way,” he said. The show is performing extremely well.

I don’t feel my twenties,” she said. I’m not acting my age, I’m sure! I adore Helen Mirren’s advice to embrace everything and take pleasure in every second of your work. She said, “I’m growing up, not getting older.” But I don’t want to grow up, I appreciate it so much.

Lorraine, the grandmother of Lorraine, told woman&amp that she will not be working on her ITV show any longer after seeing the benefits of cutting back on the frequency to four days per week. She said, “Feeling on Fridays gives me a chance to breathe and aligns me with everyone else.” Ben and Cat did four days, while Phil and Holly did four.

Susanna completes the four and three. Because I’ve worked five days a week for 40 years, I wasn’t initially sure about it. A little bit of a wrench was involved. With my mother not feeling well, it’s sometimes you just have to take a step back and appreciate what you have. This has undoubtedly made life easier. She is currently recovering from her terrible kidney condition. It has been a positive change in terms of looking after her, especially with Billie and then the writing.

When Stephen Smith, a cameraman for TV Am, met Lorraine and they wed in 1992, and they have been together ever since. Rosie, their daughter, has now had her own child.

And Lorraine has pledged to care about the baby girl, who was born in August of last year, with a smile on her face. Billie is my life’s light, she said. When I’m not with her, I miss her dearly. I can babysit them as often as I can, but I don’t interfere because they are an hour away [in north London]. Just there, I am. I adore that I’m Granny Smith!

“I’m a mischievous granny,” I say. We’ll develop all kinds of nonsense as Billie ages. Billie would like to visit the penguins [in Antarctica], so I want to take her everywhere on adventures.

“You see the world through their wee eyes and rediscover everything,” says a grandparent.

Lorraine doesn’t have many opinions on her morning show, but she claims she uses X, a previous Twitter user, more frequently because she finds it to be too toxic.

She also stated in the magazine that she opposes canceling people and that they should instead be fired because she recently criticized Gregg Wallace herself on screen. She also urged people to make an effort to defend their rights if they are being deceived.

She said, “Anyone who behaves improperly, behaves inappropriately, or makes anyone feel uncomfortable, they must be called out so they can apologize.” I object vehemently to people encouraging that kind of behavior, which has already happened [like with] Gregg Wallace. You must speak up loud and be courageous as a boss.

She continued, “I’m against canceling people.” You must hear their point of view before you can say, “They’re being an absolute t**t, what a load of old twaddle.” If something you believe is heinous, you should never be fired for it. You should be able to express your opinions, even though I believe you to be the biggest w***er to have ever lived.

“We would be living in an echo chamber, all patting one another on the back and saying, “How smug are we? ” if we only spoke to those who we felt were in agreement. ‘”.
