Loose Women’s Nadia Sawalha and Ruth Langsford won’t be ringing in their milestone birthdays together this year.

Nadia, who hits the big 60 in November, plans to have a low-key celebration with her nearest and dearest after consistently dismissing the idea of a surprise party for the past two years.

Although her Loose Women colleagues are likely to have something up their sleeves for her on the show that week, Nadia doubts Ruth, who turns 65 in March, will be involved. Discussing her birthday plans, she revealed: “I’m having a few days with my daughters, my sisters and hopefully, my closest friends.

“I’ve spent the last two years saying, ‘Nobody arrange a surprise, I’d hate it!’ I’ll be having a quiet one.”

When asked if she’ll be celebrating with Ruth, she told Woman’s Own magazine: “No because we’re never on [screen] together. She’s on a Monday and I’m on a Friday. I was astonished that Denise [Welch] is 66!”

While Nadia has nothing but praise for her Loose Women co-stars, she believes the key to maintaining long-lasting friendships is to keep them limited. She explained: “Don’t have too many because being a good friend takes hard work. For years, I was a real p**s head.

“I’d just go out [with pals], get drunk and that was [the basis of friendship]. Real friendship is about really listening to and being there for friends.”

Ruth Langsford’s next milestone birthday may be different from her previous years, following her recent split from Eamonn Holmes. In May, Ruth’s representative told The Sun: “Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.”

The duo tied the knot in 2010 and have a 22-year-old son Jack, while Eamonn has three other children from his previous marriage. Post-split, Ruth has been on a hiatus from Loose Women and hasn’t announced when she will return.

During her break, she’s been concentrating on her QVC projects and quality time with family and friends.

While Ruth herself hasn’t publicly commented on the breakup, Eamonn expressed gratitude for the support they’ve received on GB News, stating: “Before we move on, I would just like to thank people for their support for Ruth and I over the past few days. Your support, from both of us, is very much appreciated.”

Meanwhile, Nadia Sawalha has been happily married to Mark Adderley for 22 years, and they have two daughters, Maddy, 21, and Kiki, 16. In the same interview, the ITV favourite praised her daughters’ talents but doesn’t see them following in her footsteps.

She added: “My youngest is an artist and my oldest is a singer and a fantastic actress, but I don’t think she’ll pursue it, which is a shame because she’s so good.

“Both of my girls are non-materialistic. When I offer to treat them, they say things like ‘I don’t want a big house’ and ‘I’ll get second-hand clothes’. They’re like, ‘No mum, it’s so extra’.”
