Denise Welch leaves Loose Women panel gasping with VERY rude comment about her appearance as beauty debate takes outrageous turn
Denise Welch left Wednesday's Loose Women panel lost for words after a VERY rude comment about her appearance as a beauty debate took an outrageous turn.
The 66 year old returned to the studio alongside Christine Lampard, 46, Janet Street Porter, 78, and Jane Moore, 63, to chat about this week's latest newsworthy topics.
Anchor Christine spoke about Dame Judy Dench's recent live sculpture, and Judy later revealed that she doesn't have a relationship with her face, and her daughter isn't a fan of looking in the mirror.
Denise confessed that she thinks she's had a such a 'wonderful career which is based on everything except her looks, whereas some people's is based on their looks', and she noted that she understands where she is coming from.
She went on to say: 'I remember when I was 50, a long time ago, somebody said to me, I think it was George Bernard Shaw, not that he said to me, but somebody told me...
'They said George Bernard Shaw said when you get to 50, you've got the face you deserve.

The actress confessed that there is one part of her face that she's not happy with - her neck - and she had a crude name for it
The 66-year-old returned to the studio alongside Christine Lampard , 46, Janet Street Porter, 78, and Jane Moore , 63, to chat about this week's latest newsworthy topics
'I remember thinking I deserve a far worse one.
'So I am glad to just have one that's functioning, honestly the abuse I've done to my face over the year. I'm okay with it.
'I can't bare this vagina neck I've got going on.
'That's what I'd get rid of. I'm okay.'
Giggling away to herself, Christine asked: 'Did you come up with that terminology?'
Denise said: 'No my friend Jackie said I've got f**ny neck... Sorry...
'Can I not say that?'
Christine asked: 'Do I have to apologise for that, I'm not sure...'
Denise: 'So I don't dwell on the mirror as an actress. I have zero vanity at all.
'I love the parts where I'm stripped back and nothing.
'As a presenter you tend to have a little bit more.'
It comes after it was revealed that ITV's Lorraine and Loose Women have been axed for half the year and Lorraine's runtime has been slashed by 30 minutes, as ITV Daytime bosses announced huge cuts today with job losses in excess of 220.
Host Lorraine Kelly faced the brunt of the cuts with Good Morning Britain now taking her 9-10am slot for 22 weeks of the year.
For the remaining 30 weeks of the year, Lorraine will present five days a week, meaning her Friday stand-in presenters Ranvir Singh and Christine Lampard are no longer needed for the show.
Lorraine's show has also been slashed in half, now running for just 30 minutes from 9:30am to 10am.
It comes after Coleen Nolan left the Loose Women panel and studio audience gasping with VERY personal swipe at Janet during Tuesday's episode of the ITV show.
The 60 year old didn't hold back as she made a comment about her co-star's multiple marriages while discussing how to tell someone that you don't love them anymore.
Janet explained that she had no problem breaking up with someone and told a story about how she broke up with a fiancé after meeting another man.
The journalist later admitted that she'd never had it happen to her.
Coleen said: 'You don't know how it feels then, that's how you can do it easily, because you don't know that feeling.'
Janet told her: 'If you think your relationship is going in that direction, get in first.
'Instead of swimming around in these shallows of emotion and turmoil and how to tell him. Get it over with.'
But Coleen didn't hold back and said to her: 'Maybe if you'd spoken a bit more and discussed a bit more, you wouldn't have been onto your fourth marriage.'
Janet, her co-stars Katie Piper, 41, Charlene White, 44, and the audience couldn't believe what she had said and gasped in shock.
Anchor Charlene stepped in and said: 'I think it's probably safe we end things there and move on to getting things married!
'Forget fine china, I could see where that was going, it's the afternoon...'

Michael Palin opens up about his grief two years on from the death of his beloved wife Helen Gibbins and says he still talks out loud to her
Michael Palin has opened up about his grief two years on from the death of his beloved wife Helen. The Monty Python star, 82, was married to Helen for 57 years after meeting as teenagers on holiday in Suffolk. The mother of their three children — Thomas, 56, William, 53, and Rachel, 49 — had been suffering chronic pain for several years and then developed kidney failure. She passed away at the Marie Curie Hospice in Hampstead, north London, on May 2, 2023. Speaking to Saga magazine, Michael said he feels grief now and is able to focus on keeping the spirit of Helen around. 'I can see why people say it takes two years or so before your response gradually changes,' he said. 'It becomes less about loss and more about the spirit of that person being around, so that's very nice. 'I feel less grief now, and more that I've got to keep on doing things, looking after the children we made together. He continued: 'I talk to myself as if she's there. I'll show some spectacular bit of incompetence that I know she would have found funny, then I'll hear myself saying something in the way she would have said it and I'll laugh, even though I'm the only one there. 'Imagining her being there makes me laugh.' Asked if he thought finding love again was on the cards, Michael said: 'We were a unit for so long. You can never begin to replace a relationship which lasted 60 years. 'I'm OK living on my own, then I go off to Venezuela or somewhere. I'm not moping.' On living alone, he added: 'I didn't want to be dependent on the family to come around every day. I don't cook, unfortunately. There were various areas like that where I thought I might be a bit vulnerable. 'But it turns out I'm quite good at being on my own. The other person who guides me through that is actually Helen.' Sir Michael and Helen met at the seaside town of Southwold when they were 16. They reconnected by chance in the actor's first year at Oxford University, before marrying at the age of 22. While the BBC TV director was suffering from kidney failure, Sir Michael was travelling to make documentaries about North Korea and Iraq for Channel 5 after he left the BBC in 2012. But in September, Sir Michael expressed regret over this, saying: 'I don't have regrets really. Perhaps towards the end, when I was doing the later travel journeys like North Korea. 'I don't think she particularly wanted me to go away then, but she knew that my interest in travel and other people was very deep-seated, it wasn't because I wanted to get away from home — it wasn't that at all.' The Pole To Pole author recently released a book, There And Back, of his diaries which he said helped him cope with his wife's health issues. He said: 'Helen was ill for a couple of years, so it wasn't a sudden death, and I was helping her and caring for her through a lot of pain. 'Writing this down helped me to deal with it. I needed to remember all that.' Last year the actor heartbreakingly admitted that his late wife's clothes were still hanging 'in the cupboard' as they make it feel as if she was 'still here'. Almost two years since his agonising loss, Michael told how he likes to see her belongings around their home as it reminds him of the time they spend together, with the star adding that it's the reason he will never move. Speaking in an interview with The Times, Michael said on the possibility of moving: 'I don't feel that way - at the moment, anyway. Everything around me has a story or something that reminds me of time we spent together, not in a maudlin way'. 'Just they are the props of your life. Get rid of all those props and I'd be in a different play, playing a different character. And I don't want to do that. 'I know it seems odd, but I carry on as though Helen is still here. Her clothes are still in the cupboards. I don't want to change my life, because I feel she wouldn't want that either. It's still a nice house to come back to. I feel her presence here.' After almost six decades of marriage to the love of his life, Michael went on to say that he couldn't imaging starting a relationship with anyone new as he was still 'bereft' over losing Helen. He shared: 'I shared my life with someone for so long that I find it impossible to think of sharing it in the same way with anyone else again. So in a way, I'm sort of freer.' The TV personality said he found it 'odd' with her not around, especially when coming home from the theatre or dinner and wanting to tell her about his experience. He added that he misses 'the little things' about their relationship, adding that he still finds it 'very difficult' without her - especially when it comes to cooking.

But that's not all, as another M&S fan explained: "I like that it's fairly lightweight as I wanted a comfortable everyday smoothing vest. I also prefer that it's not shiny/silky as it feels more breathable."

JK Rowling hits back at Stephen Fry and says she and the Harry Potter narrator were NEVER even friends
JK Rowling has hit back at Sir Stephen Fry after the Harry Potter narrator accused her of being 'radicalised by TERFs' - claiming the two were never even friends. Fry, 67, previously branded the author a 'friend of mine', adding he did not plan to 'abandon' friendships despite his trans pals being 'deeply upset' by Rowling. But this month Fry turned on the Harry Potter creator as he branded her a 'lost cause' and accused her of being 'radicalised by TERFs' while recording podcast The Show People. Following the remarks, British barrister Jo Maugham echoed Fry's claim that he and Rowling were friends as he wrote on X: 'Really creditable this, from Stephen Fry. I've spoken to so many of JKR's once friends who now despair at her privately but won't do so publicly, which is very much the British way and why nothing ever changes for the better. So well done Stephen.' But in response to the post, Rowling savagely shut down any suggestion that she and Fry were ever close, even if he thought they were. 'It is a great mistake to assume that everyone who claims to have been a friend of mine was ever considered a friend by me,' she replied on X. Comedian and TV presenter Fry previously told how he used to have dinner regularly with the author and described her views towards the trans community as 'strange'. During The Show People this month Fry, who is himself gay, said: 'She has been radicalised I fear and it may be she has been radicalised by TERFs, but also by the vitriol that is thrown at her. 'It is unhelpful and only hardens her and will only continue to harden her I am afraid. I am not saying that she not be called out when she says things that are really cruel, wrong and mocking. She seems to be a lost cause for us.' Fry recorded audio books for all seven of the Harry Potter series, but has now turned his back on the author, accusing her of 'mocking' LGBT+ people and insisting he supports the trans community. He said: 'She started to make these peculiar statements and had very strong difficult views. She seemed to wake up or kick a hornet's nest of transphobia which has been entirely destructive. 'I disagree profoundly with her on this subject. I am angry she does not disavow some of the more revolting and truly horrible, destructive violently destructive things that people say. She does not attack those at all. Fry said he was sad to speak out against her, adding: 'I am sorry because I always liked her company. I found her charming, funny and interesting' 'She says things that are inflammatory and contemptuous, mocking and add to a terribly distressing time for trans people. 'She has crowed at the success of legislation in Scotland and elsewhere declaring things about gender. 'So I am very happy to go on the record to say that I am really angry about that. My view about all things of sharp and difficult nature is that is is much more important to be effective than to be right.' Fry, who has until recently not spoken openly about the row, explained that he had previously got on well with the author. 'I am sorry because I always liked her company. I found her charming, funny and interesting and then this thing happened and it completely altered the way she talks and engages with the world now,' he said.
