Coleen Nolan has since addressed fans’ concerns as to why the Loose Women panel failed to mention Stacey’s pregnancy.
The 57-year-old tweeted: “To everyone who’s tweeted in wondering why it wasn’t mentioned on today’s @loosewomen…”
“It’s because the episodes between Christmas and New Years were pre-recorded.”
“No big secret, the pre-records were announced in the Christmas lineup!”
