With loved-up selfies, joint photo shoots, and boasts about an amazing sex life, things seemed to be going brilliantly for Coleen Nolan and her boyfriend Michael Jones. But news broke recently that the pair had quietly split in April after things had 'fizzled out'. So what was behind the break-up?
Loose Women star Coleen, 57, met supermarket logistics worker Michael through Tinder back in 2021 and, while she kept his identity secret for a while, she soon decided to shout from the rooftops about her new love. But it's now been suggested that the star - who has two sons, Shane Jr, 33, and Jake, 29, from her first marriage to actor Shane Richie, and a 21-year-old daughter, Ciara, from her second marriage to Ray Fensome - is single again.
CREEPING DOUBTS
A source tells Woman's Own that while Coleen was 'smitten', it was very much Michael's doubts that resulted in the relationship ending, with the supermarket worker who also has a grown-up son from a previous marriage - finding the public interest around their relationship difficult to deal with.
Explaining the likely reason Michael stepped away, they tell us, 'It was the amount of attention that was coming onto the relationship. He wasn't really into the fame thing. It put a bit of a wedge between them.
*Coleen talking about their bedroom antics and stuff like that...he has to go into work, in a normal job, or face people in the supermarket after she's said that.'
