CELEBS GO DATING SCOOPS COLEEN NOLAN AS SHE LOOKS FOR LOVE AGAIN

Coleen Nolan is reportedly stepping into brand new territory after signing up for the next series of Celebs Go Dating, with the TV favourite hoping the show will help her find love again. The Loose Women star, known for her honesty, warmth and no-nonsense approach to relationships, is said to be ready to give romance another chance following her recent break-up.

Coleen has been single since the beginning of the year after splitting from boyfriend Michael Jones. The pair originally met on dating app Tinder and went on to enjoy a three-year relationship before deciding to part ways. Speaking previously about the split, Coleen explained that the relationship ended amicably, with both sides realising they were ultimately better off as friends.

Now, it appears the popular presenter is embracing a fresh start, with Channel 4 bosses reportedly thrilled to have secured her for the upcoming series of Celebs Go Dating. According to insiders, Coleen was high on producers’ wish lists for some time, but few believed she would actually agree to take part.

A TV insider told The Sun: “Coleen was on the top of the casting bosses’ lists but they never thought she’d agree to take part and they can’t believe they’ve actually got her.” The source added that Coleen’s openness and sense of humour made her an irresistible choice for the show.

Celebs Go Dating, which sees famous faces put their love lives in the hands of professional dating experts, has built a reputation for delivering both heartfelt moments and headline-making drama. Coleen, who has never taken part in a dating show before, is expected to bring a refreshingly honest and relatable perspective to the series.

The insider continued: “She’s never done a show like this before but she’s always so open and honest on the Loose Women panel, and a little bit saucy, so bosses believe she’s going to be television gold.” Producers are reportedly keen to showcase Coleen’s fun side while also exploring the realities of dating later in life.

In a move that’s already generating buzz, Coleen is said to be lined up as the show’s “cougar”, with bosses allegedly casting several younger men to date her during the series. The decision reflects the show’s growing focus on challenging traditional dating stereotypes and celebrating confidence at any age.

Coleen has never shied away from discussing relationships, heartbreak and self-worth on Loose Women, often sharing candid insights drawn from her own experiences. Fans have long praised her for being relatable and real, particularly when speaking about love after divorce and the pressures women face when re-entering the dating world.

Her appearance on Celebs Go Dating could strike a chord with viewers who appreciate her down-to-earth approach. At a time when dating apps and modern romance can feel overwhelming, Coleen’s journey is expected to resonate strongly with audiences looking for authenticity rather than polished perfection.

While Channel 4 has yet to officially confirm the full celebrity line-up for the new series, excitement is already building at the prospect of seeing Coleen navigate first dates, awkward encounters and romantic possibilities under the guidance of the show’s dating experts.

For Coleen, the decision to take part reportedly represents a step outside her comfort zone, but one she’s embracing with humour and optimism. Friends say she’s open to meeting someone new but equally focused on enjoying the experience and having fun along the way.

With filming expected to take place next year, fans won’t have to wait too long to see how Coleen gets on. Whether she finds lasting love or simply gains a few memorable stories, one thing seems certain, Coleen Nolan’s Celebs Go Dating debut is shaping up to be one of the show’s most talked-about signings yet.
