ITV presenter Lorraine Kelly has apologised on air for her Welsh attempt at wishing people a Happy St David's Day. 

To mark St David's today, the Scottish presenter, on her ITV show Lorraine, attempted to say Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus, which means Happy St David's Day in Welsh. 

However, struggled with the pronunciation and apologised for her "terrible" attempt. 

Lorraine said: "I'm so sorry to everyone in Wales because that was terrible. I probably said something very rude. 

"Happy St David's Day though. I did try."

Fans of the show didn't seem too bothered and took to social media to show their thanks for at least attempting the Welsh version of Happy St David's Day. 

One follower on Twitter, said: "Great to see you trying.

"It’s a hard language to get a grip of if you’re not Welsh. Well done"
