Loose Women's Brenda Edwards not happy after eyebrow 'fail'

Loose Women's Brenda Edwards was not happy after her Loose Women co-stars failed to let her know her eyebrows "looked strange" live on air.

This week's first instalment of the popular daytime show saw the panelists discussing constructive criticism. The chat came after Dame Helen Mirren said she expects "unconditional praise" from her husband.

Ruth Langsford said she agreed with the idea, and said she would be "sent into a rage" if husband Eamonn Holmes criticised her actions without her asking his opinion. Brenda Edwards, however, said she appreciates constructive criticism.

Brenda said: "I'd like to be told... I'm the type of person who, if something's out of place, I will say". Gloria Hunniford also agreed, adding: "I remember when I was on Radio Two and someone sent me a letter full of praise, but they said 'just one thing, though, you said actually something like seven times in one sentence'. And I'm glad they said it because I took it on board, except sometimes when I forget."

Brenda then turned to Ruth and blasted her for not providing constructive criticism at a time she felt she needed it. She said: "Do you remember eyebrow gate?"

The TV personality was referring to an episode last year where she suffered an eyebrow "fail". In December, Brenda had used a tinting kit on her eyebrows, but failed to remove the product before entering the studio.

Taking to Twitter at the time, one viewer said: "Erm Brenda……what’s going on with your eyebrows?". Another said: "Brenda's had an eyebrow fail, is someone going to tell her?"

At the time, none of her colleagues pointed out what she'd done - despite them all noticing it. Today, Ruth said: "I thought it was a look that you were embracing."

Brenda replied: "You thought it was a look that you hated!" Viewers were then shown a clip from the episode in December.

Brenda continued: "And you sat there laughing at me, it peels off, and you sat there laughing at me." Ruth said: "No, we laughed afterwards."

Loose Women airs weekdays at 12.30pm on ITV and the ITV Hub
