Lorraine Kelly says she 'still hasn't processed' death of friend Deborah James

Lorraine Kelly has said she is finding the death of her friend Deborah James hard to come to terms with.

The Scottish TV presenter said that she "still hasn't processed" the death of Dame Deborah James who lost her life to bowel cancer at just 40 years old earlier this week. Paying tribute to the former headteacher on Wednesday, Lorraine fought back tears.

Today, the host explained that a new social media trend has started in memory of the cancer campaigner. People are "raising a glass for Debs" all across Instagram. Lorraine explained that everyone who loved and admired the late Dame should join in.
