Craig Doyle was left red-faced after he accidentally swore while hosting a special edition of ITV’s Loose Women, which featured an all-male panel

A Loose Women star was forced to apologise to TV viewers after accidentally swearing live on-air. A special edition of the hit programme aired on Wednesday, 5 February, fronted by Craig Doyle.

For the Loose Men episode, he was joined by Danny Jones, Pete Wicks, and Jordan Banjo. The spin-off show airs throughout the year with an all-male panel highlighting the importance of male mental health struggles.

As they made their way through a series of discussion topics, the stars began to speak about a new trend, which sees men aim to grow the size of their glutes at the gym.

As each panellist discussed their body shape, Craig exclaimed: “There’s one thing we Irish are blessed with, being catholic and a huge a**e!”

“I am blessed with both!” Craig jokingly added before realising his huge blunder. “Huge bottom, sorry! Beep!”

Elsewhere in Wednesday’s instalment of Loose Men, the panel discussed romantic relationships, commitment, alcohol, tattoos and more.

The panel got candid about their own struggles during certain discussions, with TOWIE favourite Pete opening up about being single and shunning commitment in romantic relationships.

“I’m the only one on the panel that’s not married with kids. I am probably well known for being a bit of a commitment-phobe, and I’ve never hidden that fact,” the reality TV star – who is rumoured to be dating Love Island’s Maura Higgins – admitted before delving into the possible reasons behind his hesitation to commit to somebody.

He continued: “I think there are loads of different reasons why. I do think men are often described as being commitment-phobes and not as much women, but I do think that is rubbish. I’ve got to say I do think women are, I would say, just as bad, but I don’t necessarily see it as a bad thing either.

“I think everyone assumes that you have to commit, you have to do this [and] to do this because society tells us you have to be married and you have to have kids – and you have to do all this sort of stuff by a certain age.”
