Today marks the end of restrictions on hugging close family and friends for the first time since March 2020, and one family reunion left Lorraine viewers in tears this morning.
Jennie Grimes, a grandmother-of-11 from Cambridgeshire, was surprised on the show by her daughter Kerry, who drove 200 miles so that her mother could finally hug her granddaughters.

The heartwarming moment moved viewers to tears, who said the story got them good.
