Amid complaints that she hardly ever presents her own show…
ITV presenter Lorraine Kelly‘s weekly wages have been ‘revealed’ and viewers are most definitely divided.
The star, 65, hosts her eponymous ITV daytime show weekday mornings. However, she’s currently off screens at the moment enjoying a summer break – something that irks regular viewers.
And those viewers have certainly got their knickers in a twist today (August 23), as Lorraine’s earnings each week have been revealed after her accounts were filed at Companies House.

Lorraine Kelly ‘set to leave ITV show’
According to The Sun, Lorraine raked in around £13,000 a week last year.
The earnings come ahead of huge cuts to ITV’s daytime offering. From next year, Lorraine’s show, Lorraine, will be cut from an hour to 30 minutes. It will also only air for 30 weeks of the year. As a result, it’s unclear how Lorraine’s wages for next year will be affected. ITV is looking to slash more than 200 jobs in a bid to save money.
Reports have suggested that Lorraine will see out her current contract with ITV and then quit.
However, viewers looking at Lorraine’s accounts reckon she’ll be okay, regardless of what happens at ITV.

Weekly earnings revealed
Figures filed for 2024 for her production firm Albatel Ltd show the firm is valued at £4.2m – up from £4m last year. The firm paid a Corporation Tax bill of £135,504 in 2024, pointing to earnings of around £677,520 – or £13,000 a week.
Lorraine is also sitting on cash reserves of £3.3m and has £135,000 in investments.

Backlash as Lorraine’s wages revealed
Lorraine critics were deeply disturbed by the star’s earnings in the face of ITV cuts.
One commented: “Wild how top talent still gets paid these premiums while networks make cuts elsewhere.” Another was less kind: “Nuts for zero talent,” they said. “Beats me how she has lasted in this position as she is a lousy interviewer,” another critic commented.
Whatever we think, she’s clearly worth it to the people that make the decision.
“Her show is rubbish and out dated and she got paid £13,000 a week for that. No wonder they are in money trouble,” said another, criticising ITV and clearly forgetting Lorraine has fingers in a lot of other pies.
“Disgusting! She’s never there!!” another blasted.
‘Good luck to her’
However, others had Lorraine’s back.
“Whatever we think, she’s clearly worth it to the people that make the decision. I don’t get it, but good luck to her!” said one.
Another echoed that sentiment and said: “Good luck to her. No wonder she cannot stop smiling.”
