Carol Vorderman appeared on ITV's This Morning on Monday, January 23, talking to Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby about her love life. And ahead of the slot, when Lorraine Kelly did her usual link from her show to This Morning and discovered Carol would be appearing to chat about her five 'special friends' she couldn't hide her feelings about it.
With a giggle, 63-year-old Lorraine quipped: "Who would have the energy for five [special friends]? Jesus!" Later on This Morning, Carol explained how she manages her relationships and why she has them - and viewers couldn't get enough of her "refreshing" modern take on love.
Responding to Lorraine's "energy" quip, Carol said she understood her reaction. "I understand that. Each to their own. I've only come on to talk about it really - I'm always private - because there was such reaction to it that I felt as though it's good to [talk] and there are an awful lot of people out there who live a life like I do, or who don't want a single partner and to live with them, who are shamed by society into not talking about it."
