Lorna's professional life is an open book and she never hides anything from it. But she always avoided any topic related to her personal life.

Yet, all is not hidden as we come across intriguing information. The actress was previously married but due to some differences, she divorced her husband.

Though the name of her ex-husband is still a big mystery. Looks like her marriage didn't work out well and that's why she never talked about it.

Children With Her Ex-Husband

The Grandpa in My Pocket actress shares two boys with her ex-husband. She's a prime example of a mother who would go to any lengths to feed her children.

When her children were small, she used to take her boys to shoot, and in her free time, she breastfed them. Soon after her divorce, the custody of the boys came onto Lorna's shoulders.

She even honed her skills in various fields apart from acting just so she could live near her children and take care of them. Mother's love is something else, isn't it?

As of now, the family of three lives together. Her boys are lucky to be born from the womb of such a charismatic, hard-working, and caring mother.

Although her boys don't like her role as Winifred Tembe in the series. In an interview, when asked about how her children likes the show, she stated, 

“They liked me being on TV when they were little, especially when Tikkabilla came to film in their primary school. But I haven’t got much street cred now. They don’t think Mrs Tembe is cool."

Don't feel sad Lorna, we're sure your boy loves you with everything. It's not their fault to dislike her role as many fans of the show feel the same.

Moving On!!

We wish the Laidlaw stays like this forever and the family of three never grows apart from each other.

As for her on-screen relationship, her most-known relationship has been in Coronation Street where she played Aggie Bailey. On the show, her husband is Ed Bailey played by actor Trevor Michael Georges.
