The second account tracking Lorraine Kelly’s absence from her own show has been SUSPENDED – just as the ITV host disappeared from our screens this week.
Just last month Lorraine, 65, was served a fresh blow after ANOTHER X account tracking her absence from her ITV show was created – just days after she slammed ‘really hurtful’ trolls.
The old account, with the username @LorraineKWatch, was closed down in March – and @whereislorraine was made to replace it.
However, now the page is nowhere to be seen.
Lorraine presents her own programme from 9am to 10am Monday to Thursday on the popular channel, and on Fridays Lorraine is replaced by either Ranvir Sigh or Christine Lampard.
Monday’s instalment of the show saw Christine step in for the star once again.

‘The nation needs to know whether or not #Lorraine has turned up for her own show. We’re continuing the work of tracking her attendance. Satire account,’ the bio of @whereislorraine stated.
Just a day after @LorraineKWatch was shut down, the new account told X users: ‘Good Morning #Lorraine attendance tracker enthusiasts! Today we’re continuing the hard work of. Please do give us a follow.’
They also wrote on the account: ‘I’m sorry, but the people of the United Kingdom and in fact, the world, deserve to know whether or not #Lorraine has presented herself тιтled show or not.
‘We appreciate Lorraine’s comments in the press – however this new account will continue tracking her.’
On Friday March 21 Lorraine didn’t host her own show – and it was Christine who stepped in.
The account stated: ‘Friday 21 March 2025.
‘Lorraine Kelly did not host her self-тιтled show this morning… with Christine Lampard stepping in.
‘#Lorraine has hosted 40 out of 57 (70.1%) episodes this year.
‘Christine has hosted 10 episodes and Ranvir Singh has hosted 7 episodes.’
On March 10, a viral X account on that Lorraine’s absence from her own show was shut down after two years.
The satirical social media page called @LorraineKWatch made its debut back in February 2023 and was dedicated to documenting the presenter’s attendance on her ITV morning programme.
Lorraine has hosted her name-sake weekday show since 2010 and is typically on screens Monday to Thursday, taking Fridays off, when she is often replaced by other presenters including Christine Lampard or Ranvir Singh.
The light-hearted X account often made comments stating the percentage of episodes Lorraine has appeared in so far this year.
One of its lasts posts read: ‘Lorraine Kelly did not host @LorraineKWatcher own show this morning, with Ranvir Singh stepping in.
‘#Lorraine has hosted 32 episodes out of 47 (68.1%) this year. Ranvir has hosted 6 episodes, Christine Lampard has hosted 9 episodes.’
The page currently boasts 3,940 followers and only follows two accounts – Lorraine’s regular step-in hosts Christine Lampard and Ranvir Singh

She said: ‘I’ve not spoken about it before.
‘I’m a grafter and I work really hard and I’ve had to take Fridays off for the past year.
‘I just thought it was weird to care so much.’
Lorraine revealed she originally started taking Fridays off because her mother has been ill, ‘And it sort of brings you into line with everyone else because if you look at This Morning, everybody else does four days.’
The presenter went on to add: ‘Maybe it just started off as a wee joke, but it’s the way that everyone piles on.
‘It starts off as a wee tiny thing and it gets bigger and bigger. I find it really sad.’
Earlier this year, the person behind LorraineKWatch stressed to Metro that they would close the account if the presenter ever expressed she was upset by it.
‘It would have been shut down right away if they did,’ they said.
After Lorraine’s comments were published, the social media account decided to stick to its word and stepped down.
Lorraine spoke out about the account in an interview with The Guardian and revealed she finds it ‘really hurtful’
The account owner told Metro: ‘I am really sorry to hear that Lorraine has found the account hurtful after previously agreeing that it was lighthearted fun.
‘As I’ve said throughout, this was never meant to cause any harm so in light of Lorraine’s recent comments, it only feels right to stop here.’
LorraineKWatch went on to make an official statement on social media and posted: ‘I have always said that if Lorraine or her team reached out and asked me to stop this account then I would.
‘While I have not had contact with Lorraine or anybody affiliated with her, her comments in this weekend’s The Guardian make it clear that the joke has run its course and it is time for it to end.
‘I have said time and time again that this was only ever meant to be fun and I’m very grateful to everybody who has enjoyed it with me. There was never any intention of hurting Lorraine’s feelings and I am sorry if I have done so.
‘Goodbye my Lorrainvirstines.’
Lorraine airs weekdays from 9am on ITV1 and is available to stream on ITVX.
