Nadia Sawalha Tears Up Over Loose Women Chaos Amid Pay Cuts and Redundancies

Nadia Sawalha has broken her silence on the chaos at Loose Women as she choked back tears on Thursday. 

ITV confirmed dramatic changes to their daytime TV schedule last week, with Lorraine Kelly’s show slashed from an hour to 30 minutes and, like Loose Women, will only air 30 weeks of the year. 

And now one of Loose Women’s most popular presenters has hit out as she described scenes of ‘shock and fear’ in the corridors at ITV after ‘hundreds’ of shock redundancies and pay cuts. 

Speaking alongside her husband Mark Adderley on the couples YouTube channel she explained: ‘Do you know what, at the moment, all of us on screen are in work, and are proud of what we do.

‘But behind the scenes there are people that are really suffering, and what you don’t realise is when you attack the show you attack them, because you never see all the army of people behind the scenes and how hard they work.’

Struggling to hold back her tears, she added: ‘So to all my friends and colleagues behind the scenes who have just got a huge shock out of the blue, I’m so sorry.

‘Mark knows how upset I’ve been at home about it. I just can’t bear it. So just be f*****g kinder people.’
