Linda Robson talks nights out with Vanessa Feltz as she prepares to date again after split

Linda Robson has heaped praise on friend Vanessa Feltz as she prepares to get back in the dating game.

The Loose Women star, 65, has been a pillar of support to the 61-year-old This Morning agony aunt following the end of her 16-year relationship with fiancé Ben Ofoedu after he admitted to cheating on her with multiple women.

Feltz recently claimed she had been out “every single night” since she and Ofoedu went their separate ways and Robson has joined her on a number of those occasions

“We’ve been out a lot together, she’s lovely, Vanessa,” Robson told media including the Standard at the press night for Grease the musical at the Dominion Theatre in London’s West End on Tuesday night.

“Wherever we go, Vanessa’s there. She has got grandchildren, we’ve got grandchildren, so we go to the same events together all the time. I love Vanessa.”

The London-born star was excited about seeing Grease, which is based on the original Broadway show and differs greatly from the 1978 film which starred Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta.

That evening, former Eternal singer-turned-solo artist Louise Redknapp was playing the role of Teen Angel, the first woman to do so. She is appearing from now until July 29.

Australian actor Jason Donovan will take over the role from August 14 until October 28, while fellow Aussie Peter Andre will reprise the role of Vince Fontaine from August 29 until October 19.

The show is on for a limited run until October 28.

“I’ve seen the show before and can’t wait to see it again,” Robson enthused.

“We had Olivia Newton-John on [Loose Women], she was lovely, so nice. It was on Zoom. So sad when she passed away,” she added.
