Before going into hospital, Lorraine had met up with Scots-born Angus McLean - the real life 'Nessie Milker' - who is embarking on a UK-wide milk float tour.
Angus recently found viral fame after letting cameras peek behind-the-scenes of his Nessie Nectar milking business.
Located on the shores of Loch Ness in Scotland, Angus has created a quirky new flavour of orange beverage, IRN-BRU.
The milkman is now travelling from Loch Ness around the UK to deliver the latest limited-edition Nessie Nectar flavour, IRN-BRU XTRA, to fans.

Speaking about her unusual interview with Nessie Milker, Lorraine said: "Oh, what a treat it was to meet Angus as he sets off on his big UK tour.
'Hearing all about his time working with one of Scotland's most famous legends was just magical.
'So keep your eyes peeled for that fabulous Nessie float as it makes a splash across the UK and don't forget to sort out your delivery while Angus is on his rounds.'
Earlier this month, Lorraine sparked concern with fans by sharing a selfie from a hospital bed.

The grandmother-of-one explained she was undergoing "preventative' surgery to remove her ovaries and fallopian tubes.
Wearing a hospital gown, Lorraine said she was waiting to have the "wee procedure" done.

She added that surgeons would be removing her ovaries and fallopian tubes via keyhole surgery as she had "not been feeling well".
Lorraine explained: "Just wanted to let you know I'm having a wee procedure today. I've not been feeling all that well for a little while, so I had some scans and tests, and I have to have my ovaries and my tubes taken out."

She added: "It's purely preventative. It's going to be with keyhole surgery, which is incredible, I'm being very well looked after, and I'll obviously see you really soon, and I'm gonna be totally fine."
The following day, Lorraine posted a photograph of herself in a wheelchair with her medical team and confirmed she had returned home to recover.
Since her break began over the Bank Holiday, a rotating line-up of guest hosts have fronted her ITV show - including Sian Welby, Ranvir Singh and Andi Peters.
But the legendary star is hoping to be back in her Lorraine armchair next week.

Taking to Instagram today, she shared a beaming photo of herself, her surgeon and granddaughter Billie and said: "I had my check up l today and the fabulous Ahmed Raafat says I can go back to work on Monday - as long as I take it easy.
"Billie obviously loved him."
Lorraine previously described Billie as "the best medicine ever".
To be in with a chance of catching a glimpse of Angus's float and tasting Nessie's Nectar, fans should send a text to McLean & Son's hotline on 07955 583726.

Charles joined by David Beckham and Meryl Streep to celebrate award winners
Charles met David Beckham, Stanley Tucci and Penny Lancaster, all King's Foundation ambassadors, alongside friends of the charitable body, Hollywood stars Kate Winslet and Meryl Streep, at the St James's Palace awards ceremony. Prizes including Young Entrepreneur and Advocate of the Year were presented by the celebrities including the King Charles III Harmony Award, recognising a long-term commitment to the foundation's mission of creating a world where people, places and the planet can live in harmony. Charles met his foundation's famous supporters and award winners before touring stands showcasing the charity's work, and Winslet smiled as she told him: 'Don't worry, I'll be all in – I've got your back.' Celebrity chef Raymond Blanc hailed the King for his campaigning over the decades on issues like communities, sustainability and traditional crafts that underpin the foundation, which is celebrating its 35th anniversary. His ITV series Raymond Blanc's Royal Kitchen Gardens took him to palaces like Hampton Court and Hillsborough, as well as Highgrove House and the Castle of Mey – places Charles calls home. Blanc, a foundation ambassador, said after meeting Charles: 'I think what the King has done is extraordinary. He's done it for many, many years – from the 1970s, about the same time I arrived in England – and my values are his values. 'There's a deep belief in connecting human beings with communities, with agriculture, with sustainability, management of waste, management of energy, and he has done it for the last 45, 50 years.' Speaking about filming at the King's Scottish retreat, the Castle of Mey, which once belonged to his grandmother the Queen Mother, Blanc added: 'I really believe he got all his values seeing his grandma in this beautiful space. 'So natural, close to the sea, at the tip of Scotland where there was such a reservoir of natural things.' Blanc's words were echoed by Penny Lancaster who praised the monarch for creating the awards and highlighting the needs of the planet throughout his adult life. She added: 'The King may have been accused of hugging trees and people thinking he was mad when he started talking about the environment all that time ago, but he was at the forefront then and now has been proved right with everything he said and now we're all just trying to play catch up. 'I really recognise the beauty in the way he is trying to get us on board with his knowledge and if we can pass that on to the younger generation, and save some of the traditional skills like we've seen with these winners today, we can all be a part of making a difference.' The King's Foundation, previously known as The Prince's Foundation following an amalgamation of Charles' charities which stretch back to 1990, aims to 'advocate for the change His Majesty wants to see in the world'. The Emerging Talent prize was presented by Beckham, the former England football captain rumoured to be knighted soon, to Emily Hurst who has shown exceptional talent and commitment while on a King's Foundation programme. She recently completed the Chanel and King's Foundation Metiers d'Art Fellowship in Millinery, based at Highgrove Gardens after she had become fascinated with the heritage craft of straw braiding and began learning to produce hats from the material. She said: 'Working at Highgrove was absolutely the best place to be, surrounded by so much inspiration from His Majesty's garden and learning from some of the best milliners with country, I'm so incredibly honoured.'

Love Island star reveals terrifying moment she was forced to run screaming after being followed by a man: 'I'm scared to walk around'
A Love Island star has revealed she was forced to run screaming after being followed by a man in a terrifying ordeal. Patsy Field took to social media to detail the horrifying incident with fans as she admitted she no longer felt safe in her local area. The former islander, 30, who took part in last year's summer edition of the ITV dating show, told fans how she went on a walk in Bromley shortly after 8pm. In a video, she explained how she had headed out in a bid to walk off 'being full of steak' after a family dinner at Miller and Carter. She said: 'I'd got an outfit on which could be a bit revealing but like I said, I'd never had any issues before. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'I've always felt safe where I'm from.' Patsy told how her mother always discourages her from walking by herself at night because the area she's from gets 'a bed rep'. About 10 minutes into her stroll, Patsy realised there was a man walking close by her and she crossed the road. She said: 'I give it a couple of steps on the other side of the road and I thought, I'll just check and I turn around and he's crossed the road.' Unsettled, Patsy said she remained open-minded because there were parked cars on that side of the road. However, in disbelief, the man once again crossed the road after she had moved back. Thinking on her feet while panicking, Patsy stopped walking and looked down at her phone, with the man walking on past her. She continued: 'I can see the end of the road so he carries on walking, there's a zebra crossing right at the end of the road. Patsy told fans how she screamed for help before running off and ringing her mother to come and collect her 'He crosses the zebra crossing and he's about to be out of my sight, but then just as he's about to go out of sight, like away, he stops and turns back around and he just starts walking back towards me. 'I'm like what the f**k is going on.' As the man made contact with Patsy, she was left unnerved and began screaming for help and ran in the opposite direction. The reality star rang her mother who was able to come and pick her up. 'Now I'm scared to walk around my own area which is a shame as I've never had an issue before,' she admitted. While on Love Island, Patsy revealed she w as born with Erb palsy, a disability that affects the muscle function in her right arm and also means it is shorter in length. She told how she should have been born via cesarean, but doctors made the crucial error for her to be delivered naturally, resulting in the defect, which she has had to overcome her entire life.
