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.

EXCLUSIVE Freddy Brazier reveals he turned down Love Island in an attempt to step away from his family name and admits his social media is just like the ITV2 show
Freddy Brazier has revealed he turned down dating show Love Island and that he wants to step away from his family name and not be remembered for who his parents are. The 20-year-old son of Jeff Brazier and the late Jade Goody told The Mail how producers recently offered him a slot on the show. 'I'm on Instagram, I don't need Love Island,' he said. 'I've got Love Island on my phone from my bed. 'I need to do something without him [my dad]. I don't want to be seen as 'Freddy from Race with his dad.' I want to be known for something on my own. 'I'm more interested in modelling. I've got some good opportunities coming up – but this stuff with my dad isn't helping that.' Freddy's reveal comes as he insisted, he is now 'not' going to rehab, days after revealing he was going to 'get clean' in Marbella. He told fans last week that he has been addicted to smoking from the age of 12 and would be heading for treatment soon. Freddy shared in an Instagram post on Sunday that he has decided he 'doesn't need rehab' and instead just 'needs a boys' holiday or a retreat'. Posting a black and white photo of his younger self, he wrote: 'You know what I don't need rehab! I just need a holiday with a good group of boys or a retreat.' Last week, Freddy also made candid remarks about wanting to rebuild a healthy relationship with his father Jeff, 46, after a family rift. Freddy wrote: 'I've decided that I will be cutting down And I want to go to Rehab In Marbs as I feel if I'm in England I won't take getting clean seriously. 'I've been smoking from the age of 12 and it's time to stop it was a bad coping mechanism that turnt into an addiction something I relied on and something that made me feel sane and some what ok. 'I've found a rehabilitation centre and a boxing club I've found someone I want to get to know and I'm happy I got a good bunch of friends and I get out and enjoy myself. 'I want to be clean so I can life happily and have healthy relationships with people and be there for all of my family rather then feeling like I'm in the middle and have to choose a side.' He continued: 'I haven't been able to feel love properly as I have never loved myself and it starts now I want to play football and take up boxing I want to be happy and be in a healthy relationship and have a healthy relationship with my Nana and my father.' Celebrity Race Across the World star Freddy lost his mother when he was just four years old after she died from cervical cancer in 2009, and has since been raised by his dad Jeff. Jeff has clashed multiple times with Jade's mum Jackiey Budden, and it was revealed last month the TV star is taking action in an attempt to legally block contact between his son and his grandmother, to keep him safe'. And Freddy's love life has also recently made headlines. His Love Island admission comes just days after Freddy enjoyed a first date with controversial influencer Tasha Newcombe, 22, at Glasshouse Terrace in London Bridge. Tasha hit headlines herself last summer when she, then 21, became romantically involved with 16-year-old Marko Vituk, from Maidstone. MailOnline contacted Bobby and Jackiey's reps for comment. The latest series of the reality dating show kicks off on Monday night with host Maya Jama [pictured] set to introduce a new batch of sexy singletons looking for love The new season of Love Island returns on June 9 with the full line-up of contestants confirmed. This year's crop of hopefuls include a Declan Rice body double, fire breather and Maura Higgins lookalike and Maya will once again be at the helm after joining the popular dating series in January 2023. This year, the show celebrates a decade on screens and promises to have 'more twists and turns than ever before' in honour of their 10-year anniversary.

Katie Price cruelly slammed by mum-shaming trolls as she poses with son Harvey at home
KATIE Price has been cruelly slammed by mum-shaming trolls. The former glamour model, 47, came under fire after she posted a sweet snap with son Harvey, 22, at home 4 4 4 It came after Katie shared a picture of her and Harvey doing some baking. In the photo the mother and son are posing in the kitchen, with a packet of cake mix in view. Katie captioned the shot with: "Baking with Harvey 🍰 carrot cake for all the family today." While the majority of comments were kind, there were some trolls who used the picture to mum-shame her. One wrote: "Thought you were really worried about Harvey's weight!!! And you make a cake?!" While another added: "Bake it from scratch Katie. You can make one much healthier than from that cake mix, and use real butter not spread." This one said: "Wouldn't it have been healthier for Harvey if you'd made it from scratch." Another chimed in: "You moan about his weight but feed him cake." HARVEY'S WEIGHT JOURNEY Meanwhile, last week Katie gave her fans an update on Harvey's weight loss journey. She has been worried about her son's health after his weight reached 30st. Katie Price drops huge hint daughter Princess Andre is in talks for Love Island after boyfriend split But now she has revealed they have looked at weight loss jabs to help him. Speaking on the latest episode of her The Katie Price Show podcast, she said: "Hopefully Harvey starts his Mounjaro this week, but we'll talk about that next week and I'll go through all of what's happening about that." The mum-of-five previously opened up on how Harvey's life was at risk because of his size. The TV personality's eldest child has Prader-Willi syndrome, which sparks a constant desire to eat food and a permanent feeling of hunger which leads to obesity. 4 Harvey battles a series of debilitating conditions including autism, septo-optic dysplasia, ADHD and oppositional defiant disorder. In a video posted in April, Katie revealed: 'I'm so heartbroken and gutted that his weight is just going up. 'I just googled it in stones, 188kg is just a few kg of being 30 stone. 'It's so life-threatening now, I'm still waiting for the doctors to get back to me starting on the Mounjaro and his journey to a healthy life.' She continued: 'It's so sad his quality of life at the moment where he's so big, he just can't really do much. 'It's just another thing I have to deal with because he's at high risk of having a heart attack, he struggles to put his trainers or struggles to walk anywhere but I love him and I'm going to help him through this. 'So sad, obesity and his condition is sad, it's sad to see someone go through it and he doesn't understand.' In February Katie told The Sun she consulted top doctors who suggested starting Harvey on the jabs in a bid to improve his chances of living longer. Harvey's biological dad is former footballer Dwight, 53, dated for a short period between 2000 and 2001, but split shortly after Katie told him she was pregnant. Everything you need to know about fat jabs Weight loss jabs are all the rage as studies and patient stories reveal they help people shed flab at almost unbelievable rates, as well as appearing to reduce the risk of serious diseases. Wegovy – a modified version of type 2 diabetes drug Ozempic – and Mounjaro are the leading weight loss injections used in the UK. Wegovy, real name semaglutide, has been used on the NHS for years while Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is a newer and more powerful addition to the market. Mounjaro accounts for most private prescriptions for weight loss and is set to join Wegovy as an NHS staple this year. How do they work? The jabs work by suppressing your appetite, making you eat less so your body burns fat for energy instead and you lose weight. They do this my mimicking a hormone called GLP-1, which signals to the brain when the stomach is full, so the drugs are officially called GLP-1 receptor agonists. They slow down digestion and increase insulin production, lowering blood sugar, which is why they were first developed to treat type 2 diabetes in which patients' sugar levels are too high. Can I get them? NHS prescriptions of weight loss drugs, mainly Wegovy and an older version called Saxenda (chemical name liraglutide), are controlled through specialist weight loss clinics. Typically a patient will have to have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, classifying them as medically obese, and also have a weight-related health condition such as high blood pressure. GPs generally do not prescribe the drugs for weight loss. Private prescribers offer the jabs, most commonly Mounjaro, to anyone who is obese (BMI of 30+) or overweight (BMI 25-30) with a weight-related health risk. Private pharmacies have been rapped for handing them out too easily and video calls or face-to-face appointments are now mandatory to check a patient is being truthful about their size and health. Are there any risks? Yes – side effects are common but most are relatively mild. Around half of people taking the drug experience gut issues, including sickness, bloating, acid reflux, constipation and diarrhoea. Dr Sarah Jarvis, GP and clinical consultant at said: 'One of the more uncommon side effects is severe acute pancreatitis, which is extremely painful and happens to one in 500 people.' Other uncommon side effects include altered taste, kidney problems, allergic reactions, gallbladder problems and hypoglycemia. Evidence has so far been inconclusive about whether the injections are damaging to patients' mental health. Figures obtained by The Sun show that, up to January 2025, 85 patient deaths in the UK were suspected to be linked to the medicines.
