Lorraine divides viewers as the show is lauded for breast cancer segment showing model with bare chest.

Lorraine viewers were left divided on Thursday morning when a segment showed a model with her bare chest out to discuss how to check for breast cancer. 

During the show's resident medical expert Dr.Hilary's appearance, he was joined by model Michelle in speaking viewers through the technicalities of checking breasts for lumps, however some were perturbed by the exposure.

Swarming Twitter, some fans of the show emphasised the importance of raising awareness of the issue while others claimed it is easy to simply research the imagery online rather than show the images on TV so early in the morning.

Lorraine fans took to Twitter to praise the show for showing viewers exactly how to check the breasts for lumps or signs of cancer. 

Positive reviews saw tweets writing: 'Best demo of self checking for breast cancer I've ever seen this morning on the show. Well done to awesome model Michelle for getting stuck in on live TV too !!!!... 

'Shout out to @lorraine for showing how to do a real breast exam this morning #BreastCancerAwareness #breastcancer... I applaud Lorraine raising breast awareness. All women need to check regularly... 

'If you’re offended by bare breasts being on TV during a breast cancer awareness examination item then you need to give your head a wobble #Lorraine...
