Denise Welch has surprised her followers by sharing a cosy backstage photograph with American popstar Taylor Swift. The Loose Women panellist posed with her arm around the singer at London’s O2 Arena after Taylor made a surprise appearance during The 1975's show on Thursday, January 12.
Taylor performed her hit song 'Anti-Hero' live for the first time, wearing a mirrored dress. Denise, mother of The 1975 frontman Matty Healy, beamed alongside the star. 'Oh what a night at a sold out 02. So proud I can’t even begin!!' she wrote on Instagram.
The post also featured selfies with Charli XCX, Loose Women co-star Frankie Bridge, and Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine. Fans reacted with excitement, with comments including 'Omg kris jenner met taylor swift!!!' and 'This is so unbelievably iconic'.
However, some followers were confused by a photo with Florence Welch, questioning if they are related. Denise also shared a picture of her sons Matty and Louis Healy together after the gig.
Denise's appearance at the concert came after she revealed she suffered her first panic attack in three years, overwhelmed by requests for free tickets to see The 1975. Speaking on Loose Women, the 62-year-old said: 'On top of Christmas and Lincoln's birthday... I had a panic attack. I felt completely overwhelmed and tired and fatigued.'
