Loose Women’s Charlene sparks exit fears as she warns ‘three strikes and I’m out’

Loose Women star Charlene White was left fearing the worst on the ITV daytime show, as she was warned by panellist Coleen Nolan live on-air after being late to a meeting

Charlene White, Loose Women’s chief panelist, sent fans into a frenzy about her future on the show when she received a live on-air warning for being tardy.

The discussion centred on punctuality, involving the panel members Brenda Edwards, Coleen Nolan and Natalie Cassidy from EastEnders. Charlene opened the conversation noting: “First Natalie, apparently, was early for our morning meeting today. I say ‘apparently’ because I was late! But you’re always on time for everything, right?”

To which Natalie admitted: “On time for me is early,” triggering laughter among the audience and fellow stars. However, an unimpressed Coleen was quick to retort: “If you’re late for work, for me, that’s really unprofessional.”

Despite Charlene’s attempts at defending herself saying, “It was out of my control, just saying!” Coleen nonchalantly warned her: “Well I’m going to take a note. That’s your first warning, live on-air.” To this, Charlene reacted with a worried giggle, jokingly asking: “Three strikes and I’m out?”

Later in the show, Brenda Edwards also found herself in hot water as Charlene scolded her for laughing through a segment concerning her “mystery man”. Threatening to reveal his identity, Charlene sternly told Brenda: “I’m actually gonna ban Brenda from this programme if she doesn’t stop giggling. I love you though.”

Brenda’s bloke turned out to be a figment of her imagination she’d “manifested” him in hopes of attracting a real Mr. Right. Brenda reckons that decent chaps only pop up when she’s taken, so she’s conjured up a pretend partner for now.

“I’m going to end it there, because I really don’t know where else I can go with that one,” Charlene quipped, abruptly wrapping up the segment on the ITV daytime telly programme.

In another part of the show, Natalie was eager to share the pearls of wisdom the late Dame Barbara Windsor imparted during their time on EastEnders. However, things took a turn when Charlene spilled the beans on a “private” natter they’d had off-air.

Charlene dished: “She could be tough with you without saying a word. Like, if you’d had a night out when you were working the next day?”

Natalie clapped back: “Thank you for that! It was a private conversation in the green room! But I remember going out with H from Steps one night – it was early 2000s, maybe very late 90s.”

“I came into work and it was in the days when EastEnders stars were on the front of papers, it was a big thing back then. I remember walking in and me and H from Steps were on the front of The Sun. I remember walking past and seeing Barbara with a paper. I was like, ‘I have been out but I am on time!’ but I don’t think I ever did it again!” she confessed.
