We can only imagine the panic Lorraine Kelly felt this morning when she realised she’d overslept for work – later revealing that it was the first time she’d ever made the misstep.
On weekdays, the TV presenter presents her eponymous TV programme on ITV from 9am to 10am, going through the latest headlines and talking points of the week.
While she appears on our screens at a reasonable hour of the morning, her usual wake up is as early as 5am so that she can get to work on time, ensuring she’s glammed up and ready to go by the time the cameras start rolling.
But on Wednesday morning, the 63-year-old revealed she’d accidentally slept in by around what appears to be an hour and a half.
At 6.35am, she tweeted: ‘So after getting up early – I’ve managed for the FIRST time to sleep in -YIKES !!!!’
It appears Lorraine’s sleep cycle was messed up by the fact that before oversleeping, she actually woke up way too early at 2am, thinking that it was time to get up.
At 2.06am, she tweeted: ‘So this is a first. Woke up – convinced I’d slept in – super fast shower – threw on clothes and then looked at time properly…’
Lorraine also shared a picture at the time of her alarm clock, which showed her 5.35am alarm visible on the screen.
When one Twitter user pointed out that her alarm had been set for her usual time, the TV personality explained that for some reason, it simply didn’t work properly.
‘It [didn’t] go off for some reason – all very odd – but almost at work so will be fine,’ she tweeted at 7.41am, with plenty of time to spare before the start of her show.
Don’t worry Lorraine – we’ve all been there!
Earlier this year, she opened up about her morning routine in an interview, explaining that she usually wakes up at 6.30am on Sundays – which for her ‘is a long lie-in’.

‘During the week I’m up at 5am to get to work. On Sundays it’s all change. I get up at 6.30 and have a coffee at 7am, which for me is a long lie-in,’ she told The Guardian.
‘I try not to wake Steve, my husband, up. Usually I’ll scroll through the papers on my phone and catch up with news and social media.’
Lorraine airs weekdays from 9am on ITV.
