In a surprising turn of events on This Morning, host Ben Shephard found himself in an awkward situation when Loose Women star Coleen Nolan decided to ‘strip naked’ during a live segment. The lively interaction unfolded as Shephard, alongside co-host Cat Deeley and Loose Women panel leader Ruth Langsford, previewed the day’s upcoming show.
As the banter heated up, things took an unexpected twist with the appearance of actress Emily Atack, who was part of the Loose Women lineup that day. Atack, currently in the spotlight for her role in the Disney+ series Rivals, was reported to be wearing nothing but her birthday suit for a segment. In a playful spirit, Coleen appeared on the screen seemingly poised to join in on the fun.
Ruth opened the segment by teasing the audience, hinting at the provocative nature of the show: “You might wonder, as I said, why we are standing behind this hedge. Well, we are loving telly’s newest bonk-buster Rivals.” Suddenly, Coleen popped up in the frame, cleverly concealing her modesty with greenery. With a cheeky grin, she playfully asked, “Anyone for tennis, Ben?”
The comedy escalated when Coleen tossed a tennis ball across the screen, prompting Ben to volley back with his own racket, joking, “Never trust Coleen with balls. They can go everywhere.” Responding to the frisky atmosphere, Coleen quipped back, “Don’t you know it.” The playful exchanges continued with Ben, noticing the precarious situation, quickly added, “Ladies, your hedge has dropped!” to which Coleen shot back, “You don’t need to see these!”
While this cheeky skit caught Ben off guard, it wasn’t the first time Coleen had flaunted her confidence on television. She previously participated in Ashley Banjo’s The Real Full Monty, where she stripped down for charity and to raise awareness about breast cancer, a cause close to her heart due to her family’s personal battles with the disease.
As the show went on, the audience was left wondering just how Ben would handle such antics live on air. The playful spirit of the segment undoubtedly reignited conversations about the memorable moments of daytime television.
