The TV star later broke her silence after pulling out of her show.

Taking to Twitter just an hour before the programme was due to start, she told fans that she wouldn't be on their screens.

Lorraine told her 737.7k followers on Twitter: "When you have to be sent home from work early in the morning because you are suddenly attacked by a hideous bug and were looking forward to interviewing @adamlambert.

"Beyond disappointed but imagine if I had infected him!!!!!!"

Good Morning Britiain host Kate Garraway informed viewers of the line-up change.

She said: "I think in almost a first in her 30 year history on breakfast TV she's gone home.

"She's not well. She's got a bug. We're wishing you very well, Lorraine."
