Earlier in the morning, Lorraine took to Twitter to reveal that she was struggling with a health problem.

She told fans: “HELP! Ive lost my voice any cures that have worked for you (and yes well aware some might say me not being able to talk can only be a blessing).”

When the camera cut to Lorraine, she could be seen holding up a card, which read: “Ive lost my voice [Dr] Hilary can you take over?”

Lorraine today: Dr. Hilary forced to step in

After Hilary told viewers what to expect, Kate and Ben couldn’t help but poke fun at Lorraine’s misery.

“Lorraine have you been shouting at the Chancellor, is that whats happened?” teased Ben.

Kate then added: “I dont like the idea that female presenters are reduced to writing things on cards. Ben will bring this in and well be silenced Lorraine.”

She continued: “Lets hope Hillary has the trick and she can get your voice back enough for the show later.”

Ben then went on to joke:”Thats going to be a thoroughly entertaining hour with Lorraine and no voice.”

Later on her show, Lorraine joked with Dr. Hilary about the best cure for her sore throat: “Half a pint of whiskey should do the trick, well youd forget and have no voice at all?”

Lorraine’s been having a tough time lately.

Last month, she was forced to take the day off due to illness. Ranvir Singh was forced to step in for her last minute.

On GMB, Kate Garraway told viewers at the time: “Now usually at this point in the show wed be chatting to Lorraine. But I think in almost the first in her 30-year-plus history on breakfast TV, shes actually gone home. Shes unwell.

“She came in and then has gone home. She has. Shes got a bug. Were wishing you very well, Lorraine. I hope youre getting better.

She added: “Ranvir is to the rescue though! Shes on her way in to get herself ready for the show.”
