This Morning interrupted live on air as ’embarrassed’ Kate Lawler’s dog humps her

ITV daytime show This Morning descended into chaos live on air as Kate Lawler’s dog Shirley started humping her as she tried to share the latest competition details with viewers

Big Brother legend Kate Lawler was left red-faced as she returned to ITV’s This Morning to share the latest competition details with viewers at home.

Presenters Sian Welby and Craig Doyle were back on the famous blue sofa on Monday (December 23) and the pair introduced Kate to the show who was on location in Southbourne in Dorset.

She was joined on the beach by her adorable pooch Shirley but things didn’t quite go to plan during the live segment as the dog began “humping” her owner on camera.

As the presenter read out the details for the prize giveaway, Shirley couldn’t control herself leading to Kate to shout: “Shirley, I said no humping on telly. Thanks for embarrassing me on TV.”

Sian and Craig were left in fits of giggles as the camera cut back to the ITV studio and the pair struggled to stop laughing. Craig issued an apology to next guests, a support group for lonely women, for Shirley’s “naughty” behaviour before continuing on with the programme.

The chaotic moment has been dubbed “best thing I’ve seen” by some viewers who rushed to social media to discuss Kate’s segment. One person said: “Shirley humping is the best thing I’ve seen.” Another added: “Kate and Shirley. Craig getting the giggles. Perfect.”

A third person said: “Omg!!! Shirley the dog I’ve literally just cried laughing.” A fourth agreed: “Humping Shirley, the little terrier with the #Christmas sweater on the beach!!! THANK GOD SHE NEVER HAD A BIKINI ON!!!!!! HAH HAH HAH HAHA.”

Sian and Craig stepped in for regular presenters Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard who will be back on screens to host a special episode of This Morning on Christmas Day.
