‘Not my decision!’ Lorraine Kelly speaks out as ITV viewers fume after show pulled off air

Lorraine Kelly, 62, had just begun an interview with Aston Merrygold on today’s episode of her self-titled show, but the chat was abruptly taken off air as the show cut to ITV News. This comes as it was announced this morning that Boris Johnson will be resigning “imminently”.

Lorraine had just begun an interview with Aston when she was told in her earpiece that her show was being cut-off to cover the Prime Minister’s resignation news.

It comes after over 50 members of Mr Johnson’s cabinet resigned, leading to increased pressure for him to also step down from his post.

Viewers raged on social media about the show’s abrupt finish, with Lorraine responding to one angry viewer.

“You might think that is very silly. But pigs are very intelligent, I think you’ll find,” she announced.

“Well I think that’s pretty definitive, the psychic pig has spoken.

“You cannot argue with the mystic pig, Boris Johnson, it is time for you to go.”

This comes after Boris snubbed the morning presenter on live TV during an interview with Susanna Reid.

Susanna told the Prime Minister that Lorraine was waiting, trying to terminate the interview, with Mr Johnson responding: “Who’s Lorraine?”

Lorraine brushed the comment off, as she replied: “Wow, thank you Susanna, a masterclass in a political interview, excellent stuff.”
