Lorraine Kelly says she proposed to husband in most 'unromantic' way

Lorraine Kelly has revealed the random way she popped the question to her husband Steve Smith but says it wasn't very romantic.

The Scots presenter tied the knot with Steve in 1991 after meeting through work, and the pair welcomed along daughter Rosie in 1994.

In the GMB teaser for her show this morning, Lorraine spoke to Kate Garraway and Ben Shepherd who were discussing marriage proposals ahead of Valentine's Day.

And as Lorraine revealed that coming up on her show, she would be chatting to a couple who got engaged after three weeks, Ben was interested to know how Lorraine and Steve got engaged.

Ben said: "Andi was telling us that Tower Bridge is one of the most popular spots for people to ask for people's hands in marriage. How did Stevie ask you to marry him?"

And 61-year-old Lorraine made a shock confession about her engagement to Steve. She said: "Do you know what? I think I asked! I think it was me! Isn't that awful. I can't really remember it.

"But I'm sure I was sitting one night and I said, 'Do you know what? I think we should.' It was one of those.

"It wasn't very romantic! But actually that doesn't matter."

Kate Garraway joked: "I like the fact that he's well-trained and does what he's told from the get-go."

Lorraine laughed: "'Yes, yes dear'"

Ben laughed, adding: "It wasn't even a question, was it?"
