Lorraine Kelly to be replaced on ITV show next week by Strictly star

Lorraine Kelly is set to be replaced on her show next week.

The ITV presenter announced on Wednesday's show that Friday will be her last day on the programme as she goes off on her Christmas break.

And a very familiar face is stepping in.

Lorraine will be hosted by Good Morning Britain and Strictly star Ranvir Singh.

Speaking to Ranvir in an interview the host explained: "Next week, great news, we are going to be swapping chairs.

"You're going to be here which is fabulous, thank you."

"No thank you," Ranvir replied, "I am so excited."

Ranvir, who narrowly missed out on a place in the Strictly final this weekend, will present the show Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week.

But, Lorraine will be back on Christmas day as for the first time ever all of ITV's daytime shows will air on December 25.

Good Morning Britain, Lorraine and This Morning will air festive specials, honouring the bright moments of what has been an extraordinary year.
