Loose Women panelist Charlene White speaks out after show taken off air

Loose Women panellist, Charlene White, has issued a statement after the show was pulled from air this afternoon.

Both Loose Women and This Morning had to resort to pre-recorded content after a "suspicious package" forced an evacuation.

Taking to Twitter, Charlene said today's show was due to cover journalist's mental health with regards to war coverage.

Charlene quoted an article posted from @CliveMyrieBBC, titled 'How journalists decide which photos from Ukraine are too awful to publish.'

Her own tweet said: "This is exactly what we were planning on talking about on @loosewomen today. How journalists protect their mental health at times like this, and advice for the public on how to do the same during war in a social media age."

The Loose Women Twitter account tweeted an apology shortly after the programme was pulled, saying: "We apologise for the break in live programming today. We are currently running pre-recorded content and hope to be back with you soon."

Sharing a photo of herself in a magenta blouse and trouser combo to Instagram, Charlene briefly touched on the incident.

She said: "Sadly the only place this outfit was seen today was here on Instagram. Since a security scare too @loosewomen off air."

Phillip Schofield also posted to his Instagram to confirm everything had been resolved and that he was back at work.

The Instagram story read: "Back in my dressing room @thismorning after a security alert. Thank you to our team @thisistvc and @metpolice_uk for being amazing...I've been to the pub with everyone now back to get my house keys!!"
