Viewers and panellists alike were left gasping on Loose Women after Denise Welch made a jaw-dropping comment during a fiery debate on beauty and aging.
The 66-year-old TV star returned to the show alongside Christine Lampard, Janet Street-Porter and Jane Moore, where they discussed self-image and aging gracefully. The conversation took an unexpected turn when Denise got brutally honest about her looks — particularly one area she’s not too fond of.
“I remember when I was 50, someone said, ‘You’ve got the face you deserve.’ And honestly, after the abuse I’ve done to mine over the years, I thought I deserved worse,” she joked.
But the moment that truly left the panel speechless came when Denise bluntly admitted: “I can’t bear this vagina neck I’ve got going on.”
Giggling erupted as Christine Lampard, stunned, asked: “Did you come up with that terminology?”
Denise replied: “No, my friend Jackie said I’ve got a f**ny neck… Sorry… Can I not say that?”
The rest of the panel sat in stunned silence as Christine nervously questioned whether she needed to apologise live on air.
Despite the crude term, Denise kept her candid tone, reflecting on her career: “I’ve never been vain. I’ve loved playing parts where I’m stripped back, with no glamour.”
The raucous moment comes during a turbulent week at Loose Women, which has been rocked by ITV’s brutal cost-cutting measures, including a slashed airing schedule and staff reductions. On top of that, fellow panellist Coleen Nolan left viewers shocked the day before with a personal dig at Janet Street-Porter’s multiple marriages during another fiery exchange.
With tensions rising and bold remarks flying, Loose Women is proving to be anything but predictable.
