ITV morning show Lorraine descended into chaos on Monday morning, as temporary presenter Ranvir Singh suffered a bizarre interruption during an interview.
Ranvir was chatting to Gabriella via video link, as the young woman was being forced to self-isolate in a quarantine hotel in Majorca.
It came after her friend was struck with Covid-19 on the trip, forcing them to spend 11 days in what the show branded ‘holiday hell’.
As Gabriella took the audience on a whistle-stop tour of her room, she apologised for the mess, explaining that she hadn’t had time to clean that day.
But later, as she discussed the implications of being trapped in the hotel with Ranvir, she could be seen suddenly looking away from the camera as she chatted to someone in the doorway.

Ranvir and Dr Hillary in the studio were left holding their tongues as Gabriella hastily explained: “No cleaning, thank you!” while shaking her head, though the cleaner couldn’t be seen on-screen.
“Yeah, can you come. back? No cleaning,” she said.
Ranvir quickly asked: “Who was that?”
“It was the cleaner,” Gabriella said.

“Oh, do you know what, she’s been watching Lorraine and seen you saying how dirty your room is!” Ranvir giggled.
And Dr Hillary was quick to quiz her on why cleaners were allowed into the room at all – as she is supposed to be self-isolating.
“The cleaner shouldn’t be going into that room if you’re self isolating,” he hurriedly explained. “You’re going to have to do the cleaning yourself!”

But the interviewee simply responded: “We’ve both been having cleaners in every day, usually around 11:30.”
Fans on Twitter were similarly confused, as one chimed in: “Told to SELF isolate, yet had a cleaner every day! Oh the irony!”
A second fan mused: “I take it that cleaner is in constant isolation then? #Lorraine.”
“The cleaner walked into her room!!” someone else giggled at the segment interruption.

However, others clearly felt for Gabriella’s ruined holiday, as one commented: “People were allowed to go to Majorca, and entitled to make their own decisions, it’s just a shame. that this has happened to them girls. I think that isolation is punishment enough without adding insult to injury.”
Ranvir caused further chaos to the morning show on Monday, as she admitted she “overslept” due to the heatwave currently crashing over the UK.
“I overslept this morning, because I didn’t sleep very well overnight,” she explained to Dr Hillary. “I almost missed the morning meeting! Sorry to the team!”
The pair shared a giggle as they discussed the best ways to keep cool in the heat.
But when she was introducing This Morning stars Eamonn and Ruth, Ranvir once again brought up her sleeplessness.
“I was at the club!” she joked with the presenters.
Lorraine airs weekdays from 9am on ITV.
