Coleen Nolan has expressed concerns over her mortgage payments following significant changes to the ITV daytime show Loose Women, which have been implemented as part of the broadcaster's cost-saving measures.
Since January 2026, the series has seen the removal of its live audience and announcer, along with a move to The H Club Studio in Covent Garden, where other ITV daytime programmes are now filmed under one roof. Additionally, both Loose Women and Lorraine have been reduced to airing for only 30 weeks a year, leading to extended periods off air.
Nolan, who has been a regular panelist on the show since 2000, told the Mirror that while she appreciates having more time off, the reduction in episodes has directly impacted her income. 'On the one hand, it’s nice to have a bit more time off. But on the business side, I think, “I’ve got a mortgage to pay.” We get paid per show and I’m filming fewer shows,' she said.
Despite the cuts, Nolan remains positive about the show's atmosphere, dismissing any rumours of feuds among the panelists. She described them as 'like family' and noted that they keep in touch via WhatsApp. She also mentioned working regularly with Christine Lampard, Ruth Langsford, and Brenda Edwards.
Reflecting on the changes, Nolan added that the situation has motivated her to pursue other television opportunities. 'It has given me more incentive to do other TV work,' she explained.
