ITV Loose Women fans all have same complaint as Elizabeth Taylor segment sparks backlash

Loose Women: Expert discusses Elizabeth Taylor documentary

Loose Women viewers were left unimpressed as they tuned into Monday's episode, which was fronted by Coleen Nolan.

She was joined by Brenda Edwards, Kelle Bryan and Linda Robson as they discussed Hollywood icon Elizabeth Taylor during a segment on the show.

During one moment, Brenda brought up Elizabeth's feud with Debbie Reynolds, and whether they managed to patch things up, and who made the first move.

Fans know that ter Elizabeth's third husband Mike Todd died, she grew close to Eddie Fisher, who was married to Debbie Reynolds. The pair then embarked on a scandalous affair due to them both grieving the loss of Mike at the time.

However, it was short-lived, and Elizabeth went on to remarry her ex-husband Richard Burton.

Discussing how the pair came to build bridges, top journalist Maureen Callahan said: "They did [make up], and it was many years later, Debbie Reynolds, after Liz died, told the Hollywood Reporter that they found themselves on the same cruise ship and Debbie knew Liz was on board," adding because she'd seen the huge amount of luggage.

"She thought 'Oh my God, Liz is on board', I need to get off, and her husband told her 'don't be silly'," revealing the group all ended up staying on the same floor of the ship.

During that cruise, Elizabeth and Debbie passed each other notes and ended their feud, and ended up having a civil relationship until Elizabeth's death.

As Maureen discussed the Hollywood icon, fans were left unimpressed by the segment as they took to social media.

One viewer said: "Leave Liz alone ffs, it's all gossip and speculation about her sex life and addictions when she had so much more of an interesting life and accomplished way more achievements than just that."

Another added: "Quick, quick, can you tell @NolanColeen that Liz Taylor was British, not American." A third chipped in: "Elizabeth Taylor is being talked about again by a so called expert, who is probably just speculating anyway."

A fourth raged: "Panel being fed questions through their ear pieces delivering robotic questions. No research or effort."

Loose Women airs weekdays at 12.30pm on ITV1.
