Fans of Lorraine Kelly were emotional as she presided over a same-sex wedding on her show.

Lorraine Kelly had a special role on her show today, as she acted as the celebrant for a same-sex wedding between Luke and Gavin. The ITV presenter was praised as a true ally for the LGBT community as she officiated the ceremony, wearing a rainbow-colored jacket in support.

The emotional ceremony marked a decade since the legalization of same-sex marriage in England and Wales, and both Luke and Gavin were moved to tears as they exchanged vows. The celebration was made even more special with a congratulatory video message from popstar Anastacia and a performance by West End star Alfie Boe.

Viewers were touched by the beautiful ceremony and raised their glasses in celebration for Luke and Gavin. One viewer, Aaron Grimshaw-Sparks, thanked Lorraine for helping to celebrate 10 years of same-sex marriage on breakfast TV. Another viewer, Ben Johns, praised Lorraine and her team for showing true allyship in a media landscape that can be hostile towards the queer community.

The wedding may have been a bit cringy, but as a gay man himself, SeanZz expressed his pride in how far the community has come. Unfortunately, there were also some negative reactions, with some people triggered by the gay blessing on the show. However, Sarah-Jayne summed up the sentiment of many viewers simply by saying, "This is so beautiful."

Before the wedding, Lorraine's stylist Mark Heyes helped Luke and Gavin pick out their suits, and then it was time to welcome the grooms into the studio. Accompanied by their mothers, the couple read heartfelt vows to each other, promising to love each other today, always, and forever.

In her congratulatory video message, Anastacia expressed her love for the newlyweds and joked about the star-studded lineup for their special day. The Marriage Act of 2013 has been a long time coming, and the historic moment when same-sex couples were able to legally marry at the stroke of midnight on March 24, 2014, was a huge milestone for the community. The act was also later passed in Scotland and Northern Ireland.

Lorraine airs weekdays at 9am on ITV, and if you have a celebrity story to share, you can get in touch with the entertainment team through email, by calling 020 3615 2145, or by visiting the Submit Stuff page.
