“I introduced her to my girlfriend at an event once, showing her off a bit, and Lorraine said to my girlfriend ‘he’s a good egg’ so I’m forever going to be grateful to her for sealing the deal for me.”
Earlier this year, Ash teamed up with Lorraine and several ITV stars as part of the Pride celebrations in London. The celeb said: “We went down to London on the ITV Pride bus with the likes of Lorraine Kelly, Phillip Schofield and Alison Hammond.
“Gok Wan was DJing, pumping out tunes - and then the bus broke down. So, we all got off and walked the parade, and for me, that was amazing, marching with these icons.”
