Christine Lampard is looking forward to covering all things 'Love Island' when she steps in for Lorraine Kelly on 'Lorraine' this summer.
The ‘Loose Women’ presenter will job share with ‘Good Morning Britain’ host Ranvir Singh on the ITV breakfast show, while the 62-year-old Scot goes on her summer break.
On today’s episode (19.07.22), they told the host how excited they are to fill her shoes.
Christine, 43, said: “I love the excitement of every day being so different. Let's face it, we get to meet the most incredible people, you get to chat about things - I’m guessing ‘Love Island’ will filter into the time that I’m on air, I’m a fan. They bank it all for when I’m on because they know I’ve been watching it, so I guess that might feature.
“But it’s just the excitement and the team here, everything’s such a well-oiled machine you just feel like you’re part of the family straight away.”
Ranvir added: “It’s the stuff of dreams, really. It’s quite surreal for all three of us to be in the same place.”
The 44-year-old TV presenter is particularly looking forward to the fashion segments on 'Lorraine'.
She said: “It’s so fun. The thing that I really enjoy is I don’t get to do fashion ever in my other life. So what I love about it is I’m allowed to enjoy other bits of myself on the show.
“When Mark [Heyes] is on, I’m like, ‘Oh yeah, that hemline’ and I find myself and my sisters going, ‘I saw that on Lorraine’.
“What’s nice is all my family and friends watch this show, so it’s a lovely thing for me to be able to have another bit of me that I can talk about.”
'Lorraine' airs weekdays at 9am on ITV and ITV Hub.
