As the festive lights begin to twinkle and we all start to think about what to put on our wish list, it seems that one Loose Woman knows exactly what- or rather who - she wants for Christmas.
A source tells Woman's Own that Coleen Nolan is holding out hope for a reunion with ex-boyfriend Michael Jones this festive season - and she'll settle for nothing short of a storybook romance.
Coleen a seemed s 'Coleen's Christmas wish would be to reunite with Michael, our source explains. She's holding out for him and if she can't have him, at the moment she'd rather have nobody. He was there for her through a lot, which meant a huge amount to her. If she can't have what she had with Michael, she doesn't want to settle.
ON GOOD TERMS
Mum of three Coleen, 57, first began dating logistics worker Michael in 2021 after meeting him on Tinder, with the pair taking part in joint interviews and photo shoots.
However, they went their separate ways this July, with a spokesperson for the star confirming that they were 'no longer together but remain great friends and are on good terms.
Before the split, Coleen couldn't help but shout about her new love from the rooftops - even saying they'd discussed marriage. It's really exciting. It's something that I genuinely thought would never happen again, the star beamed when she revealed the news.
