‘Nice to do something thoughtful’: The TV presenter, 63, who married cameraman Steve in 1992, said the ‘little things count’ when it comes to keeping their romance alive

‘We’ve been together for years of course, but it’s still nice to do something thoughtful to mark the day.’

Lorraine revealed she will be enjoying a lavish meal at home during the romantic day and will complete it with strawberries and chocolate for dessert. 

She continued: ‘Valentine’s Day dinner is special and a little more indulgent. Something classic, like a steak with red wine is a gorgeous thing to eat on Valentine’s Day and obviously Steve is thrilled with a choice like that! 

‘I’ve been on WW for over a year now and the fabulous thing is that nothing is off the menu, so we can both enjoy steak and chips and a glass of red wine, then balance it with some ZeroPoints food on my plate like a green salad and track the whole thing in my app.

‘There is no Valentine’s Day meal without dessert. Strawberries and chocolate is one of my favourite food pairings on any given day, but especially on Valentine’s Day.’

Lorraine also added that ‘remembering things the other person likes’ is always a nice gesture in showing how much you care. 

She also admitted she will be enjoying an early relaxing night with Steve as she ‘loves getting in bed and having a full eight hours of sleep’. 

The daytime TV star added: ‘The little things count – be thoughtful. Remembering things the other person likes.

‘Indulge in little treats’: Lorraine revealed she will be cracking open a bottle of red wine over a lavish meal at home during the romantic day with Steve 

‘Writing wee notes on birthdays and Valentine’s Day is a small way to remind them you love them. 

‘I’m not into big gestures, but I love when Steve cooks for me and we can have a quiet night in together. 

‘Indulge in little treats, together. With my job, one of the most indulgent things for me is sleep. 

‘Getting to end my relaxing night with Steve by going to bed early is a real treat. Sleep is super important to me, it’s so vital to general good health. 

‘I love getting in bed with clean sheets and getting a full 8 hours of sleep, what a luxury!’

It comes after Lorraine was left blushing earlier this month when Ben Shephard shared the very racy texts her husband sends her during her live shows.

Ben and co-host Susanna Reid were wrapping up Good Morning Britain before doing a live link to Lorraine, with the presenter unable to resist bringing up an article involving her and Steve.

And Lorraine was clearly blindsided by her partner’s saucy messages being revealed as she asked Ben: ‘How did they get hold of that?’

During the live link where Lorraine explained what was coming up on her show, Ben, 48, quizzed her about the newspaper article, teasing: ‘It would appear he’s very generous with his affections while you’re on air.

‘He often likes to say how wonderful you’re looking in the morning in an affectionate way.’

To which a red-faced Lorraine responded: ‘It depends what I’m wearing. It depends how much I’m showing.’

Going into further detail, she continued: ‘Sometimes he does say “Nice boobs”, before asking of the story: ‘How did they get hold of that? Where did that come from? Have I been talking too much again?’

And while Ben suggested Steve could be the source, Lorraine did in fact spill the beans herself in an interview with Woman’s Weekly magazine.

Meanwhile, Susanna, 52, said of the situation: ‘As we’re coming up to Valentine’s Day, how lovely. Your husband still texts you to say “Nice boobs”.’

With Ben piping up, saying: ‘Next time Lorraine’s on her show and she looks down at her phone, it could be Steve sending a little message.’

However, Lorraine didn’t feel so sure at this as pointing to her geometric print shirt dress which was buttoned up to the neck, she said: ‘This dress isn’t going to get any comments from him this morning though, Ben.’

As Ben replied: ‘I’m sure he will send you something lovely regardless.’

Concluding the light-hearted exchange, Susanna said: ‘You always look fab Lorraine. There are lots of serious issues, so it’s nice to have a moment of joy.’

Keeping the spark alive: She was clearly blindsided by her partner’s saucy messages being revealed as she asked Ben: ‘How did they get hold of that?’

In her previous chat with Women’s Weekly, Lorraine told how the secret to keeping her marriage alive is ‘keeping things flirty’.

She explained: ‘Of course intimacy is important at whatever stage of a relationship you’re in – you’ve got to keep that alive.

‘After 30 years, Steve still fancies me.’

Going on to reveal the racy exchange between herself and her husband of which Ben referred to, she continued: ‘He’s a real boob man and will text during the show if I’ve got a dress on to say ‘Nice Boobs’! It’s good to still be flirty.’
