Coleen Nolan, the much-loved panelist on ITV’s Loose Women, 

has opened up about her blossoming new romance and reflected on a “weird” realisation she recently had about her ex-partner.

The candid discussion, which aired during a recent episode of the daytime show,

had her fellow panelists and viewers intrigued as Nolan shared insights into her personal life with her trademark humor and honesty.

A New Chapter of Love

During the episode, Coleen confirmed that she is in the early stages of a new relationship, describing her partner as “wonderful” and someone who has brought fresh joy into her life.

“It’s still quite new, so I don’t want to jinx it,” she said with a smile, adding, “But I’m really happy.”

Her co-hosts, including Ruth Langsford and Janet Street-Porter, were quick to tease her about the romance, eager to know more details about the mystery man.

However, Coleen kept some aspects of her relationship under wraps, stating that she wanted to protect her partner’s privacy. “He’s not in the public eye, and I think that’s one of the reasons it feels so refreshing,” she explained.

In a poignant moment, Coleen admitted that her newfound happiness had made her reflect on her past relationships, particularly her most recent ex. She revealed a “weird” realisation that struck her during this period of self-reflection.

“Looking back, I think I stayed in some relationships longer than I should have,” she confessed. “It’s funny how hindsight works—you see things so much clearer when you’re out of the situation.”

Her comments sparked a broader conversation among the panelists about recognizing unhealthy dynamics and finding the courage to move on. Coleen added, “I think I’ve learned a lot about myself and what I want in a partner. It’s all part of the journey, isn’t it?”

Support from Fans

As always, Coleen’s candidness struck a chord with viewers, many of whom took to social media to praise her for sharing her story. “Coleen is so relatable,” one fan tweeted.

“It’s refreshing to see someone talk so openly about relationships and finding happiness again.” Another wrote, “She deserves all the happiness in the world. Love seeing her smile again!”

Her willingness to open up about her personal life has long been one of her most endearing qualities, making her a fan favorite on Loose Women.

Staying Grounded

Despite the excitement of her new romance, Coleen remains focused on maintaining a sense of balance in her life. “I think it’s important not to lose yourself in a relationship,” she said during the discussion.

“I’ve learned to keep my independence and make time for the things that matter to me—like my family, my work, and my friends.”

The singer-turned-TV personality has had her fair share of ups and downs in the public eye, from navigating breakups to dealing with health challenges.

Yet, she has always emerged stronger, often using her experiences to connect with and inspire her audience.

Coleen’s journey serves as a reminder that it’s never too late to find happiness and love. Her optimism and self-awareness shine through, making her an inspiring figure for viewers of all ages.

While she remains cautious about the future of her relationship, her glowing demeanor suggests that this new chapter is bringing her a renewed sense of joy.

As the conversation on Loose Women wrapped up, Coleen couldn’t resist one final quip: “Who knows what will happen? For now, I’m just enjoying the ride—and maybe a few free dinners!”

Fans will undoubtedly continue to root for Coleen as she navigates this exciting new phase of her life, and her story is a testament to the power of resilience, self-discovery, and hope.
