Lorraine Kelly has spoken out about the recent changes to her show, saying the cuts to *Lorraine* are “heartbreaking.” ITV decided to restructure its daytime TV lineup earlier this year, and these changes will impact *Lorraine*, *Loose Women*, *This Morning*, and *Good Morning Britain*.
Beginning in 2026, the show *Lorraine* will be shortened to 30 minutes and will only air for 30 weeks of the year, operating on a seasonal schedule. All broadcasts will move to a new studio in central London.
Lorraine has publicly addressed the recent cuts for the first time, telling The Mirror she intends to continue hosting the show, despite speculation she might leave.

She explained she doesn’t plan on changing things until people become frustrated and demand it. She said, “It needs to reach a point where people just say they’ve had enough.”
Lorraine expressed concern about the impact of the cuts on her team, explaining that it was difficult to see them broken up. Many of her colleagues have worked with her for over 20 years, and she considers them close friends and like family.
She continued, acknowledging that people are likely focused on the shows being shorter and having less airtime. However, she emphasized that her primary concern was protecting as many jobs as possible.
Honestly, things were pretty rough after the budget cuts. It was stressful trying to find work for everyone on the team. I’m feeling a lot better about it now, but it wasn’t about me at all – I was worried about making sure *they* all landed on their feet. It wasn’t about my own frustration, it was all about taking care of the team.
When asked if the changes made her consider retiring, Lorraine firmly stated she had no plans to. She joked she’d likely still be working on the show even with a walker, and pointed to inspiring women like Janet Street-Porter, Gloria Hunniford, and Angela Rippon – all still thriving on *Loose Women* well into their 70s and 80s – as her motivation to continue working for years to come.
