Lorraine Kelly leaves viewers fuming as she misses her own show only to appear from Germany amid Euros as Ranvir Singh is ‘roped in again’ to cover

Lorraine Kelly left viewers of her ITV show furious on Friday when she skipped hosting duties to appear from Munich during the European Championships.

The Scottish star, 64, spoke via video link just before her home country’s match against Germany, with Ranvir Singh, 46, ‘strapped in again’ to report in the studio.

Together with other football supporters, Lorraine said: ‘The atmosphere is really fantastic, but in Germany we have run out of beer!’.

As the crowd around her cheered, Ranvir giggled, later admitting it was nerve-wracking to have the ‘boss’ watching her work.

Fans raced to host, is Lorraine in Germany????’ Despite not presenting her own show this morning, Lorraine has become a sports correspondent for… #Lorraine’.

Lorraine’s pattern of appearing on her show has piqued viewers’ interest, with an account set up on X to follow her performances.

On Friday morning the account read: ‘Despite not doing her own show this morning, Lorraine has become a sports correspondent for….Lorraine. She presented a segment live from Germany ahead of tonight’s opening match.

Earlier this year, Lorraine Kelly was left stunned again when she was missing from her own show, but later appeared on This Morning – which is filmed in the same building.

She was on leave at the time as it was the halfway point, and her show was once again hosted by Ranvir.

But despite being absent from her title show, Lorraine then made a guest appearance on This Morning, leaving fans reeling.

This comes after viewers criticized the presenter for taking half the week off despite having an adult daughter.

Fans of the ITV morning show pointed out that Christine Lampard was a guest presenter, even though she has two young children, Patricia, five, and Freddie, two.

An ITV spokesperson confirmed to MailOnline last week: ‘Lorraine is now off for half the term and will return on Monday 6 November.’

Along with other football supporters, Lorraine said: ‘The atmosphere is really fantastic, but in Germany we’re out of beer!’

As the crowd cheered around her, Ranvir giggled, later admitting it was nerve-wracking to have the ‘boss’ watching her work

Fuming fans took to social media

Lorraine’s pattern of appearing on her show has piqued viewer interest, with an account on X to follow her performances

Fans wondered why Lorraine was off instead of Christine, with one token on X: ‘Why is Lorraine off for half the term, she has no school-aged children’

Another said: ‘It’s summer holidays which means the woman with a 28 year old is taking a week off and the woman with toy kids is doing her show!’

A third added: ‘So Christine Lampard who has young children steps in and hosts Lorraine during the break so Lorraine Kelly can take a break too. Her daughter is 29. She and Susanna Reid both feel entitled.”

One commented: ‘Ah yes. Lorraine is on holiday for half the school year, despite the fact that her daughter has not been to school for twenty years, but is replaced by someone with school-age children. The usual pointless move’
