Coleen Nolan admits Loose Women 'secrecy' over marriage woes as she struggled on ITV show

Coleen Nolan has admitted to 'hiding' her marriage troubles from her Loose Women co-stars for years, opening up about how tough she found 'putting on a front' as she had to put a brave face on to appear on the show.

The regular panellist on the ITV daytime programme was given another opportunity to step up as host on Wednesday, as she was joined by colleagues Janet Street-Porter, Linda Robson and Jane Moore. After teasing the imminent arrival of star guest, Wham icon Andrew Ridgeley, Coleen cracked on with the first discussion topic of the live episode, whether the panel would keep their personal issues to themselves and try and sort them out workout the help of others.

Jane kicked things off by explaining that. as an only child, she became used to just dealing with problems on her own growing up, having not had siblings to confide it and it was at that moment that Jane also addressed the fact that Coleen very privately dealt with the issues in her marriage to now ex husband, Ray Fensome, with her Loose Women pals none the wiser, as she kept things very much 'business as usual' ion public, turning up to work and doing her job as expected.
