Lorraine Kelly to host Christmas special with granddaughter and star-studded guest list

Lorraine: Andi Peters says his hearing piece isn't working

TV favourite Lorraine Kelly is gearing up for a spectacular comeback to her ITV show, bringing along her four-month-old granddaughter Billie and her beloved dachshund, Ruby.

The seasoned presenter, aged 65, is set to host a heartwarming Christmas Day special on ITV1, scheduled for a 9am start. The episode promises a star-studded lineup featuring Coronation Street's much-loved Jane Danson, chart-topping musician and internet phenomenon KSI, and an exclusive pre-recorded chat with Tinseltown's very own Katy Perry.

Keeping in line with the show's tradition, Lorraine will be accompanied by familiar faces such as Dr Hilary, Dr Amir, and fashion expert Mark Heyes, with a dash of Hollywood pizzazz provided by entertainment reporter Ross King. But that's not all viewers are in for a treat as Lorraine joins forces with Scottish crooner Marti Pellow and the Change + Check Choir for a festive song.

Back in September, Lorraine couldn't hide her elation at becoming a grandmother for the first time, following the birth of her daughter Rosie's child. Taking to Instagram, she expressed her overwhelming joy.

Her post read: "I have been BURSTING to share this wonderful news with you! Baby Billie is an angel and I'm so proud of @rosiekellysmith and @stevewhite94 who will be the best parents. I'm delighted to be Granny Smith and can't wait to go on adventures. #love #joy #happiness #family," reports the Mirror.

Adding to the family celebration, she shared @rosiekellysmith's post: "Posted with @withregram @rosiekellysmith Baby Billie Kelly Smith-White is here 29-08-2024. It feels like she's been here the whole time and we're not quite sure what the point of anything was before."

"I'd heard how amazing midwives are but they are genuinely walking angels - she's been welcomed into the world with so much love already."

As Lorraine gears up for a festive bonanza on her show, she'll be proudly presenting her adorable grandchild Billie while diving into hearty discussions with her guests about their new ventures. One such guest is the multi-faceted KSI, who will open up to Lorraine about his exciting new stint on ITV's hit series Britain's Got Talent.

"It was amazing; I had the time of my life, got to see all sorts of talent. It was also funny as well, I don't want to spoil it but I got to see a lot of funny talent."

Probing further, Lorraine queries: "Were you sort of verging on more Simon Cowell-esque, than nicey nicey? " KSI reveals: "Yes... I guess I was maybe a bit too harsh at some points but I meant well."
