Lorraine Kelly delights with never-before-seen photo of brother
TV host Lorraine Kelly has shared an ultra-rare photo of her younger brother, Graham.
Taking to Instagram on Thursday, the star uploaded a beaming snapshot of her sibling rocking a pair of vibrant pink 'happy birthday' glasses with rose-tinted lenses.
Graham looked dapper in the snapshot rocking a crisp white shirt with the sleeves rolled up and a bristling bearded look.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my baby brother @grahamk89 looking forward to celebrating," Lorraine wrote in her caption.
Fans and friends flocked to the comments section to share their thoughts, with one writing: "Happy birthday to your brother!" while a second remarked: "Happy Birthday Graham, hope you have a great day," and a third chimed in: "Looking slightly uncomfortable in those glasses, have a great birthday Graham."

While Lorraine tends to keep her brother out of the spotlight, she has occasionally spoken about their sibling bond.
Back in 2014, she told The Guardian: "I was six when my younger brother Graham came along, and it was a terrible shock.
"I'd been a spoiled little princess and then this angel appeared. People used to stop my mother in the street because he was so adorable. I resented him and we fought like cat and dog."
She added: "It wasn't until I left home that we came to appreciate each other and now we're best friends."
Earlier this month, meanwhile, Graham made a cameo appearance on Lorraine in a surprise celebration marking her 40-year television career.
During the segment, the mother-of-one shared a candid glimpse inside their childhood, admitting that she was "horrid to him".
Reminiscing about their bond, Lorraine candidly shared: "I mean, I was six years old when Graham came along, and I was a spoilt princess."
She continued: "He came along and he was the most beautiful baby you'd ever seen in your life with the biggest blue eyes and chubby cheeks you wanted to bite.
"But I was horrible to you, I used to nip you didn't I?" Lorraine added, before Christine Lampard added: "We got over that though, didn't we."
Chiming in, Graham said: "The trade-off was I got to learn a lot about good music, I pretty much know every word to every David Bowie song off by heart."
