Loose Women’sJudi Love, who was nominated twice at the RTS Programme TV Awards last night - once with the Loose Women for Best Daytime gong and once for Last One Laughing, has opened up on the support the Loose ladies give each other behind the scenes.
Asked if the show's panellists rally and support each other when someone is having a difficult time, as fellow panellist Olivia Attwood is currently following her painful marriage split, she tells the Mirror, "Yes, all of us support each other no matter what we’re going through, and that’s the most important thing."
Former TOWIE star Olivia, whojoined the Loose panel in 2023, has been making headlines following her split from footballer Bradley Dack in January - and the emergence of photos showing her and her KISS FM co-host Pete Wicks in a smoochat a London bar.

On Tuesday, amid the love life drama, Olivia, 34, posted a defiant selfie to Instagram and wrote: “And reading ‘hey girly’ texts on my break, gals come to the front today please and then I’m moving on with my life ty x.”
Her Loose colleague Judi, expanding on why she loves being a part of the ITV daytime chat show, says, "It’s the sisterhood, it’s that right there."
"The fact that I’ve got so many women who I can have a conversation with about different areas in my life - like parenting, relationships, moving, looking at houses, they’re just all there. So I think that’s what’s so amazing for me."
Laughing as we talk about her bagging not one but two nominations as we catch up on the red carpet ("Yeah, hopefully I get two meals as well"), the 45-year-old, whose show, Prime's Last One Laughing goes on to win the Comedy Entertainment award, also opens up on her hectic schedule.
"We’re trying, we’re trying. And we’re forever grateful and blessed. So you know how the game goes. To be able to wake up and do something that you love, and do something that is hopefully bringing a lot more joy to other people’s house, that’s a blessing for me."
The TV presenter and comedian is also starring in Celebrity Sabotage- the new ITV reality show which sees Judi, as well as Sam Thompson, GK Barry and Joel Dommet, pranking the unsuspecting public to win them top cash prizes.
Judi, who is mum to a teenage son and daughter, previously said she always wanted to be a 'cool mum' - well, has she scored those points, now? Smiling, she says, "I think I have! My daughter sat down with me the other day and watched it, so heyyy – this mumma’s cool."
It must be lovely to have a primetime Saturday night show that her kids can watch, too. Judi agrees, saying, "It's a really nice experience. It’s nice to be able to just sit at home, even if I wasn’t on it, to be watching things on a Saturday night with the children.
"This is what television is about, it brings us all together and that’s what's special."
