Coleen Nolan, the popular *Loose Women* star, has found herself navigating the dating world once again after her three-year relationship with Michael Jones came to an end. 

The pair, who initially met on the dating app Tinder in 2021, were in an on-and-off relationship before they decided to part ways in 2024.

Despite their split, Coleen and Michael remain on good terms, and it seems that the end of their romance hasn’t created any lasting animosity between them.

During her appearance on the *How to Be 60* podcast with her co-star Kaye Adams,

Coleen opened up about her relationship and shared a humorous moment from her time with Michael.

She revealed that when she was getting on his nerves, Michael would joke, saying that he “wished he’d swiped left” on Tinder instead of right.

This comment became a playful yet biting reminder of the occasional frustrations they experienced during their time together.

“I would always ask him, ‘Do you wish you had swiped left?’ when I was getting on his nerves, and he would say, ‘Yeah, I really do,’” Coleen laughed as she shared the anecdote.

Despite the teasing, it seems that Coleen and Michael were able to navigate the ups and downs of their relationship with humor, showing that even after their split, they can still maintain a friendly connection.

The relationship, which was initially sparked by a Tinder match, was marked by a series of ups and downs. Coleen, 59, had been very open about her love life, especially since her previous marriages to EastEnders star Shane Richie and Ray Fensome. However, the romance with Michael was different.

Speaking on the podcast in February 2024, Coleen gushed about how happy she was in the relationship and how she felt it was “completely different” from her previous ones. She explained that for the first time, she felt as though she was in a truly mature, 100 percent partnership.

“I feel for the first time it’s 100 percent partnership,” Coleen shared. “We’ve got everything in common as major things go. It’s like having a grown-up relationship, and it’s how men should be.”

For Coleen, the relationship with Michael offered a sense of peace and calm that she had never experienced before in her past relationships, which often involved drama or turbulence.

She added that Michael brought a sense of calm to her otherwise busy and chaotic life, making her feel stable and secure.

Though the relationship ended, Coleen has remained optimistic about her future. She’s previously spoken about how she values peace and calm in her personal life, and Michael’s presence in her life had offered just that.

Now that they’ve separated, Coleen is focused on her family and career, and she’s not in any rush to find love again.

In a more serious moment during the podcast, Coleen touched on her views about marriage and whether she would consider getting married again in the future.

After the challenges of her past divorces, she admitted that she would likely consider a prenuptial agreement if she were to marry again. She explained that while she had always been against prenups in the past, she now saw them as a necessary precaution to protect her interests.

“If it meant a lot to him, maybe I would, but I’d make him sign a great big piece of paper before I did,” Coleen quipped. “I’m not going through that again.”

This candid admission highlights the lessons she’s learned from her past experiences and her desire to protect herself in any future relationships.

Overall, Coleen Nolan’s relationship with Michael Jones may have ended, but it seems that both have moved forward with maturity and mutual respect.

With a sense of humor about their past and a clear vision for what she wants in the future, Coleen is focusing on enjoying life and finding peace, whether in her career, with her family, or in any potential future relationships.
