Katie Piper baffles Loose Women panellists as she details her wild morning ... trends now

While most people dread the shrill ring of their morning alarms, for Katie Piper the start of the day can't come soon enough.

The TV presenter, 40, detailed her morning routine on Loose Women on Monday leaving her co-stars, Kaye Adams, 61, Coleen Nolan, 59, and Brenda Edwards, 55, in complete shock. 

Katie said she wakes up early as she likes to exercise before work and her daughters Belle, 10, and Penelope, six, who she shares with husband Richard Sutton, don't like lying in.

She explained: 'I get up at 4am and I exercise before I go to work, me and my neighbour go running when we wake up, if you lay in I can't get to sleep the next night.'

Coleen was left shocked, she said: 'At 4am in the dark you go running!' 

Katie continued: 'The latest I could lay in at this present time because my youngest is only six is max 8am because that is the latest she will sleep. 

'Usual day if I'm coming into work at Loose Women, we have to be here by 8:30am and the journey for me is an hour and a half.

'So I would meet my friend at 5:45 to go running and then I would shower, change, sort the children's bits out and so on.'

The ITV panel were left in shocked by Katie's morning routine and poked fun that she would need to go to bed now the show was ending.   

Kaye said: 'Well we need to go now it's time or Katie to go to bed. Night night Katie.'

However viewers commended Katie for her 'focus' to wake up early and some agreed that they can't sleep in all morning. 

Taking to X they wrote: 'I hate lying in bed in the morning, if I’m awake I get up. I don’t need to get up for anything these days but I still get up at 6am'; 

'Why did that come across as slight bullying of Katie Piper, are the others jealous perhaps of Katie’s focus'.

While Katie's unusual morning routine may have raised eyebrows with her fellow panellists, it's nothing compared to some other stars. 

In February, British MasterChef star Gregg Wallace was mocked for sharing his seemingly parodical Saturday schedule.

Yet even that's nothing compared to the weird and wacky routines of the rich and the famous A-list stars.  

Mark Wahlberg famously wakes up at 2.30am to fit in his morning workout, while Elle Macpherson opts for a 5am alarm in order to squeeze in her morning meditation. 

From Mark Wahlberg's 2.30am wakeups to Elle Macpherson's tea ceremonies and Orlando Bloom's 'eye-gazing' - how the Hollywood A-list fill their days 

Elle Macpherson 

With the nickname of the 'The Body', it's hardly surprising that Elle Macpherson's daily routine centres around health and wellness. 

When the alarm goes off at 5am the first thing that Elle does is 'smile', coincidentally it's also the last thing she does before she goes to bed.   

After grinning and reaching for a water and lime, Elle dedicates 25 minutes of her morning to meditating in bed ' to take care of her 'mind body and spirit'. before jumping on her bike and cycling to the beach for a 6.30am swim.

If time is short then Elle stays closer to home, explaining: 'I'll get outside and put my feet on the earth to ground. I do some yoga in the morning sun or Dr Zach's Four Minute Workout to stimulate nitric oxide.

'Sometimes I'll go for a cold plunge afterwards followed by a matcha in the sunshine before getting ready for my day.'

The mother-of-two always chooses to exercise outside and in nature by hiking, biking, swimming or 'simply sitting in the fresh air and sunshine'.

She said she has no set schedule when it comes to exercise and prefers to 'go with the flow' and swears by regular sessions in her infrared sauna as well as a cold plunge to 'reset'.

She then adds a collagen elixir to her morning smoothie and takes gut support and protein supplements to help with her nutrition. 

A 'big believer in energy healing', Elle revealed she books regular appointments for acupuncture, chiropractic, breath work and sound healing as well as Russian Banyas, an ancient tradition of steam bathing with a wood stove burning dry tree or herb branches called veniks.

Elle adheres to a plant-based diet and prefers homemade meals made 'with love' so her lunch will be made using locally grown and organic veggies, handpicked from her local farmer's market.

An 'essential' part of Elle's day and to beat the 3pm slump is to perform an East Asian tea ceremony with her favourites being Rooibos tea in vanilla and earl grey.

To 'be at (her) best', the age-defying model then takes a range of supplements and elixirs from her own wellness brand WelleCo.

She said she takes care of her skin and body by juicing up to four times a day, dry body brushing, and following a $1,400 skincare routine from Dr Barbara Sturm.

Elle uses a dry body brush up to three times a week 'to stimulate circulation and lymphatic drainage, clear my system of any toxins, and exfoliate my body for smooth, soft skin'.

To wind down in the evening, Elle again likes to relax in the sauna then take a dip in cold water which she says is 'great for detoxing, immune boosting, lymphatic support and relaxation'.

One of her favourite weeknight dinners is miso mushroom soup with Japanese sweet potato. 

Her nightly ritual then involves drinking a cup of WelleCo calming Tea and the last thing she does before sleeping is, of course: 'Smile. Put my hands on my solar plexus, think about what I'm grateful for that day, and drift into a peaceful sleep.'

Orlando Bloom 

British actor Orlando Bloom unwittingly became the focus of international amusement in 2021 after giving fans a glimpse into his incredibly lavish California lifestyle. 

In a cringeworthy interview with The Sunday Times, he revealed his day starts at 6.30am, when he monitors his 'readiness' to wake up via his sleep-tracking smart ring app, before checking in on his baby girl while fiancée Katy Perry enjoys a 'lie-in'.

Speaking about his mornings with his daughter, Orlando shared: 'Daisy's a very happy baby. I'll kiss her and we'll spend some time connecting. 

'I'll do eye-gazing with her and sing songs, "Daddy loves his Daisy Dove", so she knows who Daddy is. My son's first word was "Mama", but Daisy said "Dadda". It's amazing to be a father again.'

Orlando, who also shares son Flynn, 13, with ex-wife Miranda Kerr, enthused about feeling 'less anxious and more present' the second time round.

The TV and film star also revealed he tries to avoid his phone in the early hours as he 'doesn't want to be sucked into the black hole of social media.'

The father-of-two went on to claim he 'likes to earn' his breakfast, so will mix 'brain octane oil, protein, green and collagen powders' together before going on a hike.

His first meal consists of 'porridge, hazelnut milk, cinnamon, vanilla paste, goji berries, a vegan protein powder and a cup of PG Tips', and he'll also make breakfast for his son - who splits time between his home and Miranda's $16M LA mansion.

The Canterbury native is '90 per cent plant-based' and eats red meat only once a month, declaring: 'I look at a cow and think, that's the most beautiful thing ever. At some point we'll look back and not be able to believe we ate meat.'

'I'll have a shower and get dressed. I like to make an effort. No tracksuit bottoms. Lunch is mostly plant-based again... I will cook at times but otherwise there's a team of people. Then I'll have a Zoom and read scripts', Orlando went on.

The hunk also keeps busy by working on his Amazon projects, building Lego cars, exercising for an hour and 'dreaming about [screen] roles for minorities and women'.

The Retaliation star ends his day by putting their Daisy to bed and watching a film during dinner, before heading to bed by 11.

Gwyneth Paltrow 

It's no secret that wellness guru Gwyneth Paltrow prioritises her health and fitness on a daily basis. 

So the Oscar winning actress adheres to a dedicated schedule, which typically starts bright and early with a 6.30am tongue scraping session using a Boka Rasana Stainless Steel Tongue Cleaner and then oil pulling, in which you swish minty-herby coconut oil around your mouth for a minimum of five minutes (10 is better) before she brushes her teeth.

At 6:45, she and husband Brad Falchuck meditate for 20 minutes. The couple practise Transcendental Meditation, a form of silent meditation developed by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.

Following this is a gruelling workout with celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson.

After a daily sweat session, the mother-of-two generally enjoys some time alone in a private sauna while sipping celery juice and reading a book. 

Then she admits to 'feeling detoxed, a little lightheaded and very red in the face.'

'I always followed up with a nice outdoor shower, which is one of my favorite places in the home house my shower is full of clean beauty products,' she explained.

Gwyneth follows an 'intermittent fast' diet that sees her drink just a cup of coffee in the morning then eat around midday. 

She explained: 'I really like soup for lunch. I have bone broth for lunch a lot of the days...

'And then I dry brush and I get in the sauna. So I do my infrared sauna for 30 minutes and then for dinner I try to eat according to paleo - so lots of vegetables.

'It's really important for me to support my detox.'

Gwyneth takes a bath every night with smelling salts while she unwinds listening to music by the likes of Kacey Musgraves and Taylor Swift.

By 9pm she's in bed with Brad and the pair typically treat themselves to a murder show or foreign crime programme before going to sleep.
