Coleen Nolan fumes at cost of Coronation as sister Linda waits hours to be seen in A&E

Loose Women’s Coleen Nolan fumed at the ludicrous cost of the King’s Coronation after two of her family members waited hours to be seen in A&E.

Earlier last week, the Mirror revealed that a massive security operation pushed the cost of the Coronation into the realm of £250million.

A huge chunk – around £150million – was needed to deploy thousands of police officers and protection squads, insiders revealed ahead of the huge event.

After an extravagant coronation and a lavish concert at Windsor Castle, the Loose Women stars took to the panel to share their thoughts about the historical event.

Panellist Coleen said she is usually a royalist when watching weddings and events but felt ‘uncomfortable’ over the weekend.

“That’s because of the state that we’re all in and the economy and the fact that people are struggling to eat,” she said as the audience applauded.

Coleen added that it was “fantastically done” before continuing: “For instance this weekend, very sadly, two of my relatives ended up in A&E on separate occasions, one of whom is still in still in just a cubicle because there’s still no bed 24 hours later.

“My sister who is, as we know, very ill had to go to hospital and was in A&E for 20 hours before anyone saw her.

“And of course, I’m watching this spectacle and it’s all very well saying it brought 300 odd million for that sector but can we please bring that in for the NHS… People are dying because the NHS is broken right now.”

Coleen and the entire Nolan family have suffered through many family heartbreaks and losses throughout the years, with many bravely battling cancer.

In March, Linda said: “I’ve always been hopeful with my treatment and what’s going on in my life.

“I just want to tell you unfortunately for me my cancer has spread to my brain that’s obviously frightening because there isn’t much treatment for brain cancer except for chemotherapy.”
