Loose Women's Coleen Nolan branded 'a coward' by ex co-star after denying bullying claims

This Morning: Coleen Nolan in tears over Kim Woodburn row

Kim Woodburn has taken a fresh swipe at Coleen Nolan as she reflected on her 2019 Celebrity Big Brother experience, while the new series of Big Brother makes a return to our screens.

The 82-year-old stands by claims that she was bullied in the CBB house by Coleen, 59, and others, which the Loose Women star has strongly denied in the past.

Kim said she would never return for an all-star version of the series if the same housemates were in there, as she alleges "the majority of them were horrible". The reality star added that she will "never forgive" them for how they treated her.

In a further swipe at Coleen, Kim said she doesn't believe she'd cope well if she signed up to I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!.

"Coleen will never survive dear, she's bone idle, does nothing, [she] didn't wash a dish, she did nothing, she likes her comforts," she told Reach PLC, in association with WhichBingo.

"Oh please, she won't get her own way in there and bully people because when they're very hungry, and they're very dirty, they're not in the mood for the likes of her.

"And she'll be on her own, [she] wouldn't bully unless someone is with her because she is a coward.

"She'd be thoroughly boring, but thoroughly sweet, but thoroughly boring."

After realising it's actually Coleen Rooney who is tipped to be going into the jungle this year, for a reported £1.5m, Kim added: "I don't know Coleen Rooney, I know she is married to the footballer Wayne Rooney.

"I don't know the lady, I've never met the lady, I can't imagine why she'd want to go in, she's got a great amount of money.

"It's possible that she wants to see how far she copes. I don't know why she's going in. If I had all her money... but maybe she wants to prove to her sons... or maybe she wants some limelight for a change, without her husband.

"Good luck to the lady, I don't know anything bad about her, why she's doing it when she's worth millions... but maybe she wants to prove to her family that your mum is a toughie, maybe she is, I wait to see."

Kim also says that despite her rocky past with Phillip Schofield, she believes he would be a good contestant on the show.

"I don't like Phil, but bless him and credit to him, he survived on that place [his Cast Away show]. He was mucky and filthy and he got on with it," she shared.

Previously discussing her fiery reunion with Kim on Loose Women following their Celebrity Big Brother feud, Coleen denied she was a bully.

She told The Mirror: "Anyone that knows me knows I'm not a bully. That would be the most hurtful thing people could call me.

"I didn't want to do the reunion. It was the producers who said she wanted to make peace. I agreed because I was happy to draw a line under past differences.

"From the moment she arrived, it was clear Kim didn't want to make up. Now I wish I could go back in time and not do it. It was ugly, upsetting and unpleasant for everyone."

Coleen's representatives declined to comment when approached for an additional response.
