Loose Women star Coleen Nolan appears to have found love again with a man named Ryan, according to her son Shane Nolan. The 61-year-old had insisted she was single just last month while reflecting on her experience on Celebs Go Dating. Although she described her time on the show as 'the best three months,' Coleen left as a single woman, saying she had learned a lot about herself.
Son's Slip on Podcast
In the latest episode of their podcast, Nolans Uncensored, Shane made several references to a man named Ryan. At one point, he joked that his mum had to 'rush back' to sort out an infection caused by the mystery man. Laughing off the comment, Coleen branded her son 'vile.' Later, the trio discussed STIs, prompting Shane to tease his mother again. When Coleen declared she had never had one, Shane quipped: 'Have you been checked recently?', to which she grinned before swiftly moving the conversation on.
Family Discussions and Moving Plans
Elsewhere in the episode, Coleen opened up about wanting to move house again, managing a farm on her own, and guilt over her children staying close or moving away. 'I'm just getting to that point now where I think, okay I need to start thinking ahead a bit of what I'm going to do, do I want to move?' she said. Ciara chimed in: 'Well, it's not going to be anytime soon,' and Coleen confirmed, 'Not right now no because I absolutely love this place.' Shane urged his mum to 'live everyday like it's your last,' before again bringing up her mystery man: 'Get yourself upstairs, call Ryan.' Coleen later mentioned Ryan's name herself after her children broke into Stevie Wonder's For Once in My Life, joking: 'I'm going to sing that to Ryan.'
Past Relationships
During her stint on Celebs Go Dating, the mother-of-three revealed that her love life has been 'non-existent' since splitting from her last known partner, Michael Jones, in 2023. She has been married twice: to Shane Richie from 1990 to 1999, and to Ray Fensome from 2007 to 2018. While promoting the show, she expressed sadness over being single at Christmas, saying: 'They're all very settled... but then they all go home... this was my first Christmas putting decorations up on my own, to the point where I hated it.'
