Lorraine Kelly flirts up a storm with Modern Family’s Eric Stonestreet
The ITV presenter enjoyed some banter with the American actor
CHEEKY Lorraine Kelly sparked some banter with Modern Family man Eric Stonestreet as she squealed about his sexuality in the middle of their interview.
The Scot was quizzing the TV star about his latest role in new animation The Secret Life of Pets, yet things soon centred on Eric himself as she made her funny quip.
During her ITV morning show Lorraine she started off by saying: "I bet everyone asks you this,", before following up with: "I can't believe you're not gay!"
She then added Eric's portrayal of flamboyant homosexual Cameron Tucker in the hit show was "so believable."
Fans took to Twitter straight away to share in the pair's laughs.
One wrote: "Omg Lorraine just says what everyone was thinking," followed by a duo of laughing Emojis.
Another added: "Lorraine you were great," while one simply said: "Lorraine Kelly is hilarious this morning."
One very excited social media user wrote: "This is the best morning EVER!!! Eric Stonestreet on Lorraine is the best booking! So so funny."
After the pretty brunette spoke her mind, Eric then took the lead on turning their chat into a spot of flirty conversation.
He made the TV host giggle as he gushed over her regional accent and kept asking her to repeat certain words - and said he could get used to how she said his name.
He then mimicked how she said: "I know," and added: "It's great."
Lovely Lorraine then turned cute and flustered when she was called out about rather random topics the area's flat landscape and breakfast cereal.
They continued their banter throughout the rest of the segment with Lorraine matching her cute summer outfit of a red top and pink skirt with a huge beaming smile.
