Coleen Nolan Reveals Weight Loss Success and New Dating Rule
Loose Women star Coleen Nolan has opened up exclusively about her remarkable transformation, dropping from a size 20 to a size 14, and her renewed confidence as she embarks on a search for love on the television show Celebs Go Dating. At 61, Nolan poses in glamorous outfits, expressing disbelief at her new fit, stating, "All the clothes fit and some even have to be pinned because they are big." She credits Voy's weight-loss plan, which combines medication and clinical support, for her health improvements, including more energy and reduced back pain.
Embracing Confidence and a Healthy Lifestyle
Nolan emphasizes that her journey is not about perfection but maintaining a healthy relationship with food and herself. "I don't want to lose any more weight – I'm happy," she says, highlighting the 24-7 support from Voy. Reflecting on past struggles, she admits, "I used to eat when I was happy and sad," but now feels more in tune with her body and less self-conscious.
Dating in Her Sixties with a Strict Rule
This newfound confidence led Nolan to join Celebs Go Dating after splitting from a boyfriend in late 2024. She explains, "I knew I didn't want to go on the apps again," opting instead for national television. However, dating at her age comes with challenges. Nolan reveals, "It's a minefield," noting attention from younger men on Instagram. Her major rule is clear: "I don't want to date anyone I could have given birth to." She also criticizes men her age who act "really old," seeking someone who "still wants to live, laugh and do things."
Career and Family Life Amidst Changes
On Loose Women, where she has been a cornerstone for over two decades, Nolan describes the panel as "like family," dismissing backstage drama rumors. Recent budget cuts at ITV have reduced her filming schedule, but she views it as an incentive to pursue other TV work. At home on her Staffordshire farm, she enjoys a chaotic but fulfilling life with animals and family, including her children and grandchildren. Nolan is proud of maintaining good relationships with her ex-husbands, calling it her "greatest achievement."
Looking Ahead with Positivity
Inspired by the loss of her sisters to cancer, Nolan is determined to make the most of life. She is working on a new podcast, Nolans Uncensored, with her children and remains open to more reality TV opportunities, such as I'm a Celebrity... or Strictly Come Dancing. "Life's too short, so enjoy it while you can," she concludes, embodying a spirit of resilience and joy.
