Coleen Nolan is set to return to Loose Women on Monday for the first time since her sisters’ cancer diagnosis.
It was confirmed last weekend that the presenter’s older siblings Linda, 61, and Anne, 69, had both been battling the disease during coronavirus lockdown.
After taking a short break from appearing on the panel of the ITV daytime show, it has been confirmed that she will be back on the programme tomorrow.
A message posted on Coleen’s Twitter account read: “Thanks for all the lovely messages for Coleen.
“She’ll be back on @loosewomen on Monday.”

Another added: “Bravest family in showbiz.”

The tragic news about Linda and Anne’s join cancer battle was confirmed in a tweet posted on the Nolan’s official Twitter account this month.
The heartbreaking message read: “For the past few months during lockdown, Linda and Anne have been battling cancer & chemotherapy together.
“We will get through this together, as a family.”
The brave pair have been undergoing chemotherapy at Victoria Hospital in Blackpool..

Anne and Linda received their diagnoses within days of each other during the lockdown.
Linda has secondary cancer that first metastasised to her hip and pelvis in 2017 then moved to her liver, after she also battled breast cancer in 2006.
Anne was told she has got stage three breast cancer after beating the disease in 2000.
Coleen told the Mirror recently: “I was still in bits after hearing that Anne had cancer when Linda called a few days later to tell me about her diagnosis and I was so shocked I couldn’t even cry.

“I just felt incredible anger – ‘Cancer can f**** off’ is what I thought.
“It was heartbreaking and felt so unfair, and I wanted to jump in my car immediately and drive to Blackpool to give them both a hug, but I couldn’t because we were in full lockdown and they were shielding. I felt totally helpless.”
Coleen admitted her sisters’ latest cancer battle has made her think about similar life-threatening risks to her own health.
She explained: “The guilt is incredible.
“I don’t feel guilty for not having the disease; I feel guilty for being afraid of it when I think of Anne and Linda living with it.
“But of course it’s hard not to be consumed by fear when those so close to you have been affected.”
Loose Women airs weekdays on ITV at 12.30pm
