Loose Women fans hit out at Kéllé Bryan for seemingly ‘trolling’ Ruth Lansford as she spoke about remaining friends with an ex after a break-up.
Ruth and estranged husband Eamonn Holmes both 64, announced their plans to divorce after 14 years of marriage back in May and it later emerged that he was dating relationship therapist Katie Alexander, 42.
On Monday’s episode of the ITV daytime show, the panel including Ruth, Kéllé, Coleen Nolan and Kelly Holmes, discussed the joy of finding someone you know will be a lifelong friend, referring to the unlikely friendship between Dame Judi Dench and Jay Blade amid their new series.
While the rest of the panel shared their experiences with long time school friends, Kéllé went on to talk about people maintaining friendships after they had split, noting it was a ‘unique’ thing for people to remain close.
But while the Eternal singer meant no harm with her words, Loose Women viewers were quick to call her out for discussing the sensitive subject in front of Ruth, who is going through a high profile break-up and was still wearing her wedding ring.
