Coleen Nolan's new man, Michael, made his debut Loose Women appearance on today's show.
The chatty women panellists have wanted to get Coleen's boyfriend on the show for some time but Coleen was reluctant to allow it to happen - until today.
The couple met on a dating app and the entertainment personality recently introduced her new boyfriend, Michael Jones, to the spotlight in an interview with OK! Magazine.

They met on Tinder and hinted they were considering marriage after seven months together.
She previously gushed over him on the talk show, as she said: "He is the most laid back, calm, takes everything in his stride kind of guy I've ever met.
"He's just really gentle and lovely - and brings such calm to my very hectic life."
But today he was on TV telling of his own dating experience with Coleen.
He explained: "When her face popped up I thought it a bit strange."
The 57-year-old said he recognised her straight away, but admitted that it was her who swiped first.
He added: "I didn't think she'd respond. I didn't know if she was swiping loads of people or just the odd one."
The relationship wasn't rushed as they got to know each other. He said: "We chatted for a while - a few weeks. First it was texts and then a phone conversation because she was really scared about that."
He said he didn't think it wasn't her at any time because they'd chatted on the phone and he recognised the voice.
Panellist Janet Street Porter said: "I remember when she met you. She came in and said I've met someone but he's too nice."
He replied: "I think I'm more laid back than nice."
The happy couple went on to share their first on-screen kiss for the audience.
