Lorraine Kelly breaks silence over Jennifer Arcuri row after Piers Morgan jibe

Lorraine Kelly addressed her on-air showdown of sorts with prime minister Boris Johnson's "friend" Jennifer Arcuri on Tuesday morning.

Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan couldn't help bring up the moment a day on from the clash, making a jibe in the process.

On Monday's GMB, Piers and co-host Susanna Reid quizzed Jennifer about whether she had an "affair" with Boris, while she continued to avoid confirming this - despite hinting massively their relationship was more than friends.

Someone who didn't have any time for this was Lorraine, who said exactly what she was thinking to the former model.

With Jennifer and Lorraine both on-screen via a split screen, the host told her she thought it was pointless her even being on.

As Piers and Susanna asked Lorraine once again on Tuesday morning who she had on her show, Piers made a jibe that left her blaming him for the entire situation.

Piers queried who Lorraine might take aim at in the latest episode, after the rant.

Lorraine responded: "It doesn't happen every day, it's only now and again and it's your fault."

A stunned Piers mocked the moment after Lorraine's similar situation with MP Esther McVey earlier this year.

As Piers queried who would survive out of Lorraine, Jennifer and Esther if stranded on a desert island, she pointed at herself before saying "me".

On Monday, Lorraine looked pretty annoyed and said to Jennifer: "What's the point in you coming on air to clear the air and not saying anything."

Jennifer responded in shock: "I'm sorry?" with Lorraine then repeating her claim.

The guest then remarked: "I believe I said a few things. What was it that you were looking for that I didn’t say?"

Susanna and Piers asked Jennifer for a response, while she said that the public had "already made their own minds up".

Piers continued to laugh off the moment, warning people not to get on the wrong side of Lorraine.

Lorraine, meanwhile, claimed she was "speaking for the people" with Susanna also suggesting she might be right.

Lorraine airs weekdays at 8:30am on ITV.

Lorraine added: "You didn't answer any of the questions put to you, I don’t see the point of you being on... anyway."
