Lorraine Kelly shows real name as she flashes vaccine card

Early-morning TV star Lorraine Kelly has revealed a 'secret by flashing her vaccine card in a social media post.

Lorraine, star of ITV's morning schedule, is among the latest celebrities to get a dose of the Covif vaccine.

The 61-year-old posted a picture of her card after having the jab, complete with her real name.

She told her Twitter followers: "Vaccinated! So relieved! Easy peasy - didn’t feel a thing - thanks so much to all the cheery volunteers and NHS staff who made it SO simple!!

"Please please get vaccinated!! We are so lucky to have the opportunity Xxx."

Instead of it reading 'Lorraine Kelly', it said 'Lorraine Smith' and some fans were baffled.

One person said: "I had no idea your current surname was Smith!! My full name is Lauren Kelly & I’ve been called Lorraine Kelly (or LK today!!!) my entire life, my partner's surname is Smith so I may also end up a smith one day. Twinning."

Another said: "Genuinely never even thought about you having a surname until I saw this."

Lorraine married TV cameraman husband Steve Smith in 1992.
