Lorraine Kelly is busy celebrating the fact that she's been the face of breakfast TV for 30 years now, not to mention been given a special Scottish BAFTA award.

But, despite her phenomenal success on TV-am, GMTV, Daybreak and more, Lorraine has emotionally admitted she has one regret.

And that is that she was only ever able to have one child.

Speaking with The Mirror, she explained: "I would’ve loved to have had more kids, if that was possible.

"But to be honest with you, I didn’t want it enough to go down that IVF road because I’ve got friends who have done it and it’s hard.

"It might have been different if we hadn’t had Rosie."

She added simply: "In an ideal world I would’ve loved a football team of kids."

It is not the first time the mother-of-one, who suffered a miscarriage in 2001, has opened up about her desire to have more children.

Speaking on Piers Morgan's Life Stories in 2013, she explained: “I’m really blessed to have my daughter, I have a beautiful girl.

“But I think my regret is not being able to have more kids, I would have really loved more kids.

"It just wasn’t meant to be, and we didn’t go down the road of IVF or anything like that, cause we thought: ‘If it’s meant to happen if it happens, and we’ve been blessed with one.’”
