Denise Welch has shared the 'truth' behind rumours of heated feuds between panellists on Loose Women,. saying she has 'never had an argument' with anyone off screen.
Earlier this year the ITV daytime show hit the headlines after it was reported that several of its stars including Carol McGiffin, Nadia Sawalha and Stacey Solomon all refused to appear on the same time as Coleen Nolan, something she strongly denied, taking to social media she was seeking 'legal advice' on the claims.
A source told the Daily Mail:: "‘It’s a show that is supposed to promote strong women working together, respecting one another’s views, but it’s currently the case that what is going on behind the scenes is quite the opposite of that and much more dramatic."

But, while she admits that there are often heated exchanges on the Loose Women panel as cameras role, long-serving star Denise has said there is no bad blood between her and any colleagues after credits roll.
Speaking to the Daily Star, she said: "I have never once had an argument with any single girl off stage in that show in 20 years. Never once.
"Me and Carol McGiffin can go and it hammer and tongs. Me and Kaye Adams, every single time we say something, in the break we look at each other and go 'oh that'll be the headline. Fiery clash on Loose Women.' All the time. In a way that's part of the show."
Geordie actress and star of Waterloo Road and Hollyoaks, Denise, also told the Star that she and her co-stars are 'annoyed' by the fact that if men had an on-screen disagreement it would never be referred to as a 'fiery clash.'
