Lorraine was wearing a sparkly purple dress, which Charlotte was a big fan of.
“Morning Lorraine, you’re looking very festive today,” she said.
Lorraine was very complimentary of Charlotte’s outfit too. “I love that dress,” the 62-year-old told her.
“I know Ben,” she added. “You always look lovely I don’t need to say that to you. It’s a given.”
How did Ben Shephard respond?
Ben took the opportunity to have a joke with Lorraine.
“Every day this week I have been watching you praise the girls,” he told the presenter. “Poor old Adil [Ray] earlier on in the week didn’t get a sniff, Lorraine.”
Lorraine was quick to defend herself from Ben’s jibes though. “He knows he looks beautiful,” she said, winking.
The 62-year-old then went on to talk about what to look forward to on her show this morning. The presenter then confessed to Ben Shephard and Charlotte that she had in fact got all dressed up specially to interview Adam Lambert.
“This is why I have got this on. You have to dress up for Adam Lambert,” she said.
