The Loose Women panellists are often tasked with discussing difficult subjects which are close to their hearts. And one recent subject became a bit much for Ruth Langsford as she broke down live on air during the discussion.
It was all a bit much for Ruth once the panel began to discuss how people cope with the death of their pets. On Tuesday's programme (March 28) the panel also spoke about recent upsetting scenes on Coronation Street, in which Evelyn Plummer was forced to have her greyhound Cerberus put to sleep after he fell seriously ill, M.E.N reports.
Ruth began to tear up, admitting: "Oh I can't bear it!" Coleen Nolan added: "Oh my god, you're actually going to cry - it's not even your dog!" Ruth responded: "I know!" as Coleen interjected: "It's acting!" "I know, but you know, I'm a massive Corrie fan... Oh god," Ruth said, as she teared up more. "That's because you're thinking of Maggie," Coleen added.
