Loose Women's Coleen Nolan marks tragic anniversary away from ITV cameras with emotional post

Coleen Nolan has made a poignant statement about her late sister Bernie, away from Loose Women camera, on the 1th anniversary of her older sibling's death.

It was back in 2013 that talented singer and star of Brookside and The Bill, Bernie, passed away after a battle with breast cancer, leaving her family and legions of fans heartbroken. Coleen often talks about her family and the hard times they've experienced on Loose Women, but chose to address the tragic anniversary away from the glare of TV, instead taking to Instrgram to remember Bernie.

Sharing a photo of them together, Coleen wrote: "Ten years…. No words" And then, opening up on the grief she felt at the time of Bernie's passing and still does now, the former Celebrity Big Brother winner then addressed her 300,000+ Insta followers to say: "I think people wake up and feel guilty if they're not sobbing under the duvet or just being generally depressed and I think grief is a really personal thing. I do get up and I do go to work and I do still laugh, because I think about Bernie every day and I also think about if she was still here and I didn't get up she would beat my a**e and say, 'Get out of bed," because that's what she was like."
