Kaye Adams opened up on Loose Women about losing both of her parents and how this has impacted Christmas for her, as the panel discussed grief during the festive period

Loose Women presenter Kaye Adams has admitted she had to “reinvent” Christmas following the loss of a parent in a candid confession.

The ITV star discussed grief and Christmas with her fellow Loose Women – Frankie Bridge, Kelly Brooks and Kéllé Bryan – in an emotional segment on the daytime show on Wednesday (December 4).

Kaye, 61, opened up about losing both her mum and dad, revealing her first Christmas without her father felt like she was “sleep walking”. She told her co-stars: “I think you kind of have to reinvent it. Like similar to you, I’ve lost both my mum and my dad, and Christmas was always, always at their house. The first one after my dad died, we just kind of slept walked through it.”

“We went through the motions. We were kind of anaesthetised to the whole thing. You did it , because it felt like a big thing to ignore it, but like I say, we were sleep walking. But in the years since, you’ve just got to reinvent it. Because it was so much associated with them. For us, we just had to have a different thing,” Kaye emotionally added.

Elsewhere in Wednesday’s show, the Loose Women were joined by TV chef Gino D’Acampo, as he promoted his new cook book. However, things turned awkward as outspoken Gino made an ‘awkward’ remark about an on-screen ‘kiss rule’.

Just seconds after appearing on the panel, things took a turn as Gino went around a gave each of the presenters a kiss on the cheek. It appears as though he broke a rule as he went on to reveal: “They told me ‘please don’t kiss the ladies on the table’ but what kind of Italian would come on the show without kissing the ladies. The rules are rubbish.”

The panellists laughed off the remark as Kelly turned to Gino and joked: “Well I think you’ve just got fired.,” as the panel burst out laughing as a baffled Gino questioned: “What, for a kiss?”

Viewers watching at home wasted no time sharing their reaction online as one viewer took to X, formally known as Twitter and pointed out: “That was very awkward…. #loosewomen Frankie looked uncomfortable.”

#Another commented: “#loosewomen Gino being so careful with his innuendo today.” One wrote: “Careful Gino they’ll be wanting to cancel you. #loosewomen.” Meanwhile another asked: “Do you really think they told him not to kiss them? #Loosewomen.”
