Loose Women host Ruth Langsford has insisted she is “proud” to be one of the female stars at ITV today.

Loose Women host Ruth Langsford ruffled viewers feathers as she issued a spoiler warning for Emmerdale, which had viewers switching over or muting their televisions. Ruth sat on the panel alongside Linda Robson, Coleen Nolan and Carol McGiffin, who welcomed Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley on to the show.Lisa plays Mandy Dingle in the long running ITV soap and is currently caught up in a huge plot line, with her son Vinny recently eloping with his now-wife Liv Flaherty.She joined via video link and discussed the upcoming story, but host Ruth had to interrupt and issue a spoiler alert before they played a clip from the upcoming show.Ruth, who wore her honey blonde locks in a bob style with a beige and brown jumper, addressed the audience: "All you Emmerdale fans, spoiler alert! I want to give you time to turn the telly down or look away, because we don't like to spoil it for everyone."She then went on to play the exclusive clip from the next day’s episode, in which - spoiler alert - Mandy Dingle found out that Vinny, her ex-boyfriend Paul’s son, is actually married to partner Liv.Lisa spoke on the storyline, joking that it was a "Loose Women dilemma".She also spoke about ITV’s new "super soap schedule" as Emmerdale shifts to a new 7:30pm time-slot, with fellow ITV soap Coronation Street shifting to 8pm from now on.And Lisa couldn't help but touch on whether comedian Miriam Margoyles would ever join Emmerdale as part of the Dingle family, and why she doesn’t want her character to reunite with Paddy Kirk.Riley tweeted out after her appearance: "So, so, so lovely being back with the girls on Loose Women.

She then added that the team is filled with women who “want the best for you” and she feels lucky to be part of the show.“You’ve got intelligent women who love this programme and only ever want the best for it and are there for you. “I learnt that pretty quickly and I’ve loved the ride ever since. “I feel really blessed to be a part of their clan.” She was also asked by OK! Magazine about the biggest misconception viewers have of the show.Co-star Nadia Sawalha chimed in, adding that the gang haven’t yet had a chance to party and get drunk. Charlene explained she’s heard a lot about “legendary” Loose Women parties, but has not yet had a chance to take part in one. Nadia said: “Now we just need to get drunk more – we haven’t had a chance to party!” Charlene added: “All I hear about is the legendary Loose Women parties and I’ve not been able to have one.”“When we can, we’ll hire a nice place and go and have fun.

Loose Women's Carol McGiffin was talking about her pet peeves while grocery shopping when she was swiped by co-star Linda Robson.The Loose Women ladies were discussing their shopping bugbears and Carol led the conversation claiming she hated nothing more than when staff chat away at the checkouts.She revealed that she hated it so much and wished there was a separate lane for people who wanted to chat and people who wanted to get in and get out.This then led to Linda branding her a "miserable cow" during Monday's (March 7) episode.However, one viewer backed Carol in the debate, tweeting: "I’d be with Carole@McGiff I’d be in the miserable lane. #LooseWomen @loosewomen"Earlier in the conversation, Carole also made another savage remark when she, Linda, Ruth Langsford and Coleen Nolan were discussing whether you should go to your ex-partner's funeral.Carol said: "I don't think I would really have an ex I would be that bothered about."This left the other panellists with their jaws dropped, with her them suggesting she may feel different if she had children with them.Fans took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the discussion.

We’ve often wondered what it would be like to be part of the Loose Women panel. And now, after being in the ladies’ presence during OK!’s exclusive shoot to celebrate International Women’s Day, we think we’ve got a pretty good idea. While it’s an often overused cliché, what you see on screen is exactly what you get off it – if a little more potty-mouthed and chaotic.

Loose Women hosts Katie Piper and Jane Moore have opened up on what life is like behind the scenes on the popular ITV daytime talk show.They also silenced rumours of tension behind the scenes, as well as spilling backstage secrets including "messy nights out" and endless WhatsApp messages, during an interview to celebrate International Women's Day on March 8.Speaking to OK! Magazine, Katie Piper put an end to rumours that there was tension between panellists on the programme, saying: "Everyone’s different in their own way, and that’s what makes the show fresh each time."There’s nobody you dread working with as everyone’s there in their own right and brings something unique."Reflecting on the fiery on-set debates during Loose Women, Jane Moore also explained that the arguments are soon forgotten about off-set, adding: "In the ad breaks, we’ll say, 'That was a bit fiery, wasn’t it?'"I have an issue when people say, 'Jane Moore and Nadia Sawalha cat fight on Loose Women.' Please, come on, we’re past that. "They never do it about two blokes on a news programme and it's so lame.

In another world, journalist Jane Moore and TV star and campaigner Katie Piper might never have met, let alone become friends. But, as the pair tell us during our exclusive International Women’s Day shoot, that’s the real beauty of Loose Women.
