'I was pulled to pieces on ITV'

Kim Woodburn tells new of her Loose Women experience, claiming she was left feeling 'exploited', 'mocked' and laughed at

In an exclusive interview with new, Kim Woodburn has expressed her opinion on the mishandling of her infamous appearance on Loose Women in August 2018.

The TV star was invited as a guest onto the panel to make amends with Coleen Nolan, 58, following their public spat on Channel 5's Celebrity Big Brother. But Coleen was with her sister, and Janet Street-Porter was dressed as a judge when Kim walked on. Things quickly took a turn for the worse as Coleen proved their feud was still going strong by engaging in an almighty row. Coleen called Kim "vile" and Kim branded her "trash" during the episode.

Now, as claims of a "toxic environment" circulate regarding ITV in headlines, the 81-year-old says feelings from that controversial TV battle have come flooding back. 

Kim said, "The recent talk of toxicity at ITV has definitely brought back those feelings for me. I've been saying it all along and now I feel like I'm finally being proven right.

ITV needs a full investigation some of their shows thrive on bullying and being unkind.
