Loose Women's Coleen Nolan had the 'best night ever' as she shares engagement joy

Loose Women's Coleen Nolan spilled the beans on attending an engagement celebration over the weekend.

During a chat with co-stars Ruth Langsford, Dame Kelly Holmes and Kelle Bryan, the topic switched to her daughter Ciara Fensome's engagement with her beau Max Innes.

Beaming with pride, mother-of-the-bride Coleen couldn't help but rave about Ciara's knack for organising such an amazing event all by herself from catering to music and lauded it as "the best night".

Ruth, steering the show from the presenter's seat that Monday (August 19), was all smiles as she offered her well-wishes. Of course, it wasn't the first moment Coleen had taken to praise the love-struck pair.

Inquiring about the weekend festivities, Ruth probed Coleen on the shindig she threw in her own abode, reports the Mirror.

Coleen openly admitted, "We had it in my barn, which was actually full of everything we owned when we moved in and we'd never sorted it so we had two days to empty it. It was 12-hour days, it was hideous."

Ruth found humour in the situation: "I liked that they had a cardboard cut-out of you that was being passed around her friends." Coleen clarified that the cut-out was part of a game they played: "That was a prize, they did that Bingo Bongo thing."

Confused, Ruth cut in with a surprised, "Pardon," mistaking the name for something inappropriate. "That's what it's called," Coleen stood firm on the name of the game. "Can we say that on daytime television?" questioned Ruth, seeking validation from those around her.

In an outpouring of joy on Instagram back in April, Coleen couldn't contain her excitement about the future nuptials between Max Innes and her daughter Ciara Fensome. Writing on the social media platform, she expressed: "Well what can I say... I'm so, so delighted that Max Innes has asked my beautiful girl Ciara Fensome to marry him."

She continued: "I love them both sooooo much. Miss them even more! Can't wait to see them. Off to buy a hat [cry laughing emoji]."

The conversation on the panel then shifted to school reunions, with Ruth recounting her own positive experience. She confided that she's been "fortunate" regarding friendships formed throughout life.

Reminiscing about a recent get-together, Ruth shared, "I only recently met up with my school friends," alongside a jovial snap of their gathering displayed on screen, "There we are in the garden."

Ruth recounted the meeting as being "lovely" and paid tribute to these lifelong friends for their unwavering support, especially during the tough times following her separation from ex-husband Eamonn Holmes, the GB News presenter.

Renowned TV duo Eamonn and Ruth, who are both 64, publicly acknowledged their marriage's end this May after a 14-year long relationship.

While Ruth navigates through her newfound single status, there are murmurs suggesting Eamonn is now closely associated with Katie Alexander, a 42-year-old relationship therapist who shares a commonality as a fellow divorcee.
