With the nation celebrating Father’s Day last weekend, Lorraine Kelly joined in the social media tributes with a throwback photo.
However, it was a bittersweet moment for Lorraine Kelly, as her Father’s Day post revealed that her dad was sadly being looked after in hospital.
Taking to Instagram, she wrote, ‘Happy Fathers Day to my dad. Just 18 years old in this photo. Grafted all his days and now in being looked after in Hairmres hospital.'
Lorraine went on to thank the hospital staff for caring for her dad during this difficult time.
She added, ‘Thanks to all staff there for taking care of him. Hopefully he will be out soon and back home. Haven’t seen him and my mum since his birthday in early March. Like so many families forced apart by covid19. Xxxx’
