Denise Welch took her Loose Women colleagues by surprise during Thursday’s episode of the show after revealing that Denise isn’t actually her first name.
The Tynemouth-born star was discussing baby names on the ITV show with fellow panellists Charlene White, Frankie Bridge and Jane Moore in a conversation about which parent should have the final say when it comes to choosing names for children. Denise revealed the surprising fact about her name as she talked about her own parents, OK! Magazine reports .
The 64-year-old told the panel that her full name is in fact Jaqueline Denise, although she was brought up being called Denise. “I was never brought up as Jacqueline. So my mother - according to Dad - was going through a French phase and loved the idea of Jacqueline Denise,” she explained.
