Loose Women Star Nadia Sawalha Fuels Departure Speculation

Long-time Loose Women panellist Nadia Sawalha, a fixture on the ITV show since its inception in the 1990s, has ignited concerns among viewers that she may be leaving the daytime programme. Sawalha, an original member of the panel when Loose Women first aired, took a hiatus in 2002 before returning in 2013 and becoming a consistent presence ever since. However, a recent cryptic online message has led fans to speculate about a potential exit.

Cryptic Message Sparks Fan Concern

As reported by The Sun, Sawalha shared a brief video clip, subsequently removed, showing her walking through the Loose Women studio corridors. She accompanied the post with a caption stating: “It’s ok to walk away .. but give a little smile as you do … because soon enough you will realise …that you only thought you weren’t strong enough … because you were using all your strength to stay.” This ambiguous message immediately triggered worry among her followers.

  • Fans expressed fears about Sawalha’s future on Loose Women after a cryptic social media post.
  • The post, featuring a video from the show’s studio, hinted at “walking away.”

Fan Reactions and Speculation

Immediately following the post, concerned fans flooded the comments section, with one questioning, “Sounds like you are Leaving Loose Women. I hope not.” Another commenter echoed this sentiment, writing, “We love you and we are with you supporting the right side of history is more than any LW stands for and we all should boycott Loose Women if you are not on there.”

Further comments included: “Don’t tell me you’re leaving the Loose Women!” and “Oh no, are you leaving LW? I can’t imagine how you sat among them for as long as you did.” These reactions underscore the strong connection Sawalha has with viewers and their apprehension about her possible departure.

The 66-year-old actress, recognized for her roles in Hollyoaks and Waterloo Road, initially joined Loose Women in 2005.

Upon her return, she openly discussed on Loose Women the circumstances surrounding her absence, including a collapse prior to a pantomime performance in December and her ongoing battle with depression.

Health Scare Details

Detailing her health scare on Loose Women in February, Welch explained: “I ploughed on and I started the pantomime, within three days I collapsed in the foyer of the hotel I was staying in and I got back to the room and I said to my agent ‘you’ve got to pull me out’.”
