Denise Welch makes dig at Coronation Street's Michael Le Vell over famous kiss

Loose Women panellist Denise Welch appeared to make a dig at former Coronation Street co-star Michael Le Vell over their famous snog on the ITV soap.

The 64-year-old played femme fatale Natalie Barnes in Corrie from 1997 until 2000, during which she seduced Kevin Webster away from Sally, who he had been married to at the time.

Their affair was considered incredibly scandalous to viewers at the time, with Denise's character nicknamed 'Nastily'.

Ruth Langsford had been teasing an upcoming discussion on kissing partners in front of their children when a clip of Denise's character Natalie kissing Kevin aired on the ITV show.

It comes after Kourtney Kardashian's children were filmed begging their mum to stop French kissing partner Travis Barker.

"It started with a kiss, but is it OK to do this in front of your kids?" Ruth asked as a clip of the Corrie couple smooching in a hotel room aired.

"We're talking about public displays of affection next," Ruth continued. "And the celebrity couple who have been warned by their kids to stop French kissing in front of them! And spoiler alert - it is not Denise and Kevin Webster there."

As fellow panellist Judi Love laughed, Denise cringed as Ruth added: "That was a good old snog-aroo there, wasn't it?"

"Actually it wasn't, truth be told," Denise replied wryly. "I'll tell you."

"Oh okay," Ruth responded. "That's for another day!"

Later on in the programme, viewers were left speechless as Sean Paul appeared on the show and even danced with the panellists.

He came onto the ITV show around seven months after Judi Love famously danced to his 2003 track Get Busy with partner Graziano Di Prima on Strictly.

The Jamaican rapper later recorded a message to Judi, which aired on the BBC dancing show, after hearing about the dance.

Opening up about how he had found out about Judi's dance, he told the panel: "People start sending this to my phone [and it...] went viral."

"It was awesome," he added. "She was a Jamaican so I was like 'yeah!'"
