Lorraine said she believes Camilla has been an amazing support to King Charles and that she would continue to be a steady force for him.

"But I think whatever you may think, clearly they love each other very much. You can see that there’s a love story,” Lorraine said.

"And she is so good for him. Because when he’s grumpy, she can sort of like say, behave!"

Lorraine was not the only one to come to Camilla’s defence during the programme. She was joined by Piers Morgan’s wife, Celia, who also showed her support for the Queen Consort.

"She’s had a lot of stuff thrown at her. I think we’re all grown ups so we understand that marriages don’t necessarily work out and then afterwards the best thing is, you make the best of everything, you try and stay close to the family which she has,” Celia said.

"She’s got her ex husband coming to the coronation, which is a lovely thing," she added.

Lorraine jumped in: "Talk about blended families! It’s a prime example, it really is."

The King’s Coronation will be held on 6 May, and Prince Harry has confirmed his attendance, although his wife, Meghan, will remain in the US with their children.
