Denise Welch has been put on the spot by her Loose Women colleague Charlene White, after being at the centre of a case of 'mistaken identity' thanks to a Twitter prank that fooled many people on social media.
As viewers of the ITV show and Denise's Instagram followers know, she is a regular at The 1975's gigs, getting to performances whenever she's able to, to support son Matty Healy and his bandmates. She took a girls trip to Ireland earlier this week to the group in action in Cork; but before that, she found herself at the centre of a viral online hoax, linked not just to The 1975, but also American singer Pink.
A Twitter user shared a video, carrying the caption: 'Matty Healey’s mother joined the band on stage at tonight’s The 1975 gig," with the added use of the 'siren' emoji, having people thinking this was a breaking update they needed to check out.' And, keeping the attention surrounding the tweet going, Denise herself responded: "It’s Healy and I’m still dizzy!!"
