Kate Garraway’s Candid Comeback to Lorraine After a Decade Away
So, have you heard? Kate Garraway is back on Lorraine ! Yep, after more than a decade away from the show, she's returned to the morning TV seat—but of course, she did it with that trademark honesty and down-to-earth charm we all know and love her for. What really stood out was her refreshingly funny comment about ITV “scraping the barrel” to find a stand-in when Christine Lampard and Ranvir Singh weren’t available. Classic Kate, right?

This return to Lorraine marks a full-circle moment for Kate, who used to be a regular on the show between 2010 and 2014, filling in whenever needed. She kicked off her comeback with energy and warmth, joined by Dr. Hilary Jones, even joking about her old “power fringe” from back in the day. Her words? “It’s lovely to be back. Christine and Ranvir always do the show when Lorraine isn’t on… They had a good old scrape at the end of the barrel and they found me.” That self-deprecating humour just makes you want to root for her even more.
But this wasn't just a lighthearted reappearance. Kate also opened up about how life has been for her and her children since the devastating loss of her husband, Derek Draper, last year. She shared how her son Billy, who’s currently in the middle of GCSEs, recently broke his arm in two places. Thankfully, it was his left arm, so he can still write his exams. And in typical Kate fashion, she found the silver lining, reassuring everyone with a calm “He’s all right.” It’s the strength she carries with grace that really hits home.
Of course, it wouldn’t be a proper Kate Garraway moment without a little chaos. On her second day back, she accidentally spilled tea all over the set—live on air! But instead of panic, she laughed it off with a genuine “I’m so sorry,” as if she were apologizing to friends at her kitchen table rather than thousands of viewers at home. Fans loved it. Social media lit up with support, calling her “so real,” “hilarious,” and “just what morning TV needs.” And honestly? They’re right.
Kate’s been through an emotional whirlwind—grieving, becoming a single parent, and figuring out how to be both the fun one and the strict one. But through it all, she’s showing up. Whether it's hosting Lorraine , starring in Celebrity Bake Off , or just sharing snippets of her very human moments, she reminds us that resilience can be soft, messy, and even a little clumsy. And that’s exactly why people connect with her.
So yeah, Kate’s return isn’t just a TV schedule update—it’s a warm reminder of how life goes on, one step (and one spilled cuppa) at a time.
