Lorraine Kelly fought back tears as she conquered her horse-riding fear on today's edition of her self-titled chat show.
The Scottish presenter required life saving care at St George's Hospital in London in 2012 following a horrific horse riding accident. Lorraine confessed she hadn't been able to go near a horse since and she visited 14-times Paralympic Gold medalist Sir Lee Pearson to overcome her fear.
The para-equestrianism champion described Lorraine's experience as "traumatic" and said he understands her fear. He added: "I probably have a degree of fear every day I ride, because they are three-quarters of a ton of horse and I still think everyday that it’s amazing that they allow me to sit on their backs.”
