The Loose Women panel began to interrupt each other when discussing the controversy surrounding millionaire porn star Bonnie Blue

The Loose Women panel erupted into a massive row on Monday when discussing controversial porn star Bonnie Blue.

ITV’s lunchtime chat show returned at the start of the week with Ruth Langsford as anchor, and she was joined by Mariella Frostrup, Frankie Bridge and Brenda Edwards on the panel. The ladies began to discuss pornographic film actress Bonnie, 26, who infamously had had sex with 1,057 men in 12 hours earlier this year, and the mass stunt became the inspiration for the title of a new Channel 4 documentary, 1,000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story.

The move has made the former NHS recruitment officer into a millionaire. A day before the tell-all documentary on Bonnie airs, the Loose Women discussed her motives. Brenda said that she’d never ‘get her bits out’ for any amount of money, “I just think…ew! I’m just a bit…you can’t use the word morals,” but Ruth cut in to remind her that everyone has a different moral compass. ”

Brenda shot back: “Her mother wouldn’t have changed her mind [about the situation] if she wasn’t being paid by her daughter. Tell her to go into the room where it’s all happening, and I bet you she wouldn’t!”

This Morning host Ruth reasoned that Bonnie’s mother was likely trying to ‘support’ her daughter. Mariella then chimed in calling the whole thing a ‘very tragic story’ and that she ‘feels sorry’ for the family because money does not bring happiness. She added: “Isn’t it about what you care about? We live in a world now where everything seems to be okay if you become famous or make loads of money for it. She’s getting a documentary on a public-funded platform, which is Channel 4.”

Ruth tried to bring the topic back to what Bonnie has been saying about the situation, and Mariella snapped: “I don’t care about her. I’m talking about us. I’m not saying she can’t be happy, she says she’s scared to go out, doesn’t lead a normal life, but more importantly I think it’s awful that we’re even talking about it because I just think it’s inflating something that’s really distasteful and is really just a sad, sad story. We have all lost our moral compass.”

Former Saturdays singer Frankie tried to argue that parents are more likely to ‘stand by’ their children even if they disagree with their choices, but the ladies began to talk over each other in disagreement as Brenda rolled her eyes and slammed it as ‘disgraceful’ that money is being made from such a venture. She added: “Do it behind closed doors, I just don’t need to see it!”

The heated nature of the discussion did not go unnoticed by fans, and they flooded social media with comments begging them to stop interrupting one another. One viewer wrote on X: “Only Mariella’s opinion counts,” whilst another said: “Shut up mariella , stop interrupting,” and a third said: “Mariella gets so intense on this panel.”

Another asked: “Have to shut off when Brenda starts her rants. The arm waving is irritating as well as her voice” but another viewer agreed with the former X Factor star and simply said: “Well said Brenda” after listening to her opinion.

At a screening of the documentary, Bonnie insisted she is “very happy” with her life. But her notoriety, and her boasts of sex with married men, who, she says, should not feel guilty about cheating on their wives, come at a price. In the film, Bonnie, whose real name is Tia Billinger, says: “The last time I went out by myself was probably about six months ago. Now it is not that safe.

“I get 100s of death threats a day, so it is not that safe when I walk around. I say, ‘It is going to happen at some point, someone will come and give me stick’ and fair play to her, at least they are getting up off their sofa. My worst one is acid, if someone did acid, and I could see some spiteful girl doing that.”

Bonnie has split from her husband and her closest friends seem to be Josh, who posts her videos, and a stylist. She says: “My sort of circles got smaller, but my team are also my best friends.”

Director Victoria Silver followed Bonnie for six months, gathering footage of her having sex, and was at her January marathon for a couple of hours.
