Breakfast TV queen Lorraine Kelly has headed back to hospital following surgery to remove her ovaries and fallopian tubes.
Lorraine shared her shock surgery news on May 3. She posted a video from her hospital bed and said: “Just wanted to let you know I’m having a wee procedure today. I’ve not been feeling all that well for a little while, so I had some scans and tests and I have to have my ovaries and tubes taken out.
“It’s purely preventative. It’s going to be with keyhole surgery, which is incredible. I’m being very well looked after and I’ll obviously see you very soon. I’m going to be totally fine. See you soon.”
