Loose Women’s Denise Welch has finally addressed the rumors surrounding her supposed feud with co-host Olivia Attwood, revealing that she hasn’t spoken to the Love Island star in a shocking NINE months. In an emotional confession shared with her followers, the 67-year-old actress and broadcaster admitted that despite their previous close friendship, things have been completely silent between the two since their last meeting.

Denise opened up during an Instagram video, sitting in her kitchen as she spoke candidly about the strained relationship. She explained that although the last time they saw each other everything seemed “completely normal,” it’s been radio silence ever since. “I haven’t seen her, talked to her, I just read about her on Instagram,” Denise said, leaving fans wondering what had really caused the rift.

Denise and Olivia’s bond was once considered strong. Olivia, 34, had joined the Loose Women panel in 2023, where she quickly made an impact with her bold opinions and infectious humor. She even invited Denise to appear on her podcast, Olivia’s House, where the two seemed to have a genuine connection. However, as time went on, speculation about their falling out began to grow.

One of the sources close to the pair suggested that the tension began when Denise started working with Olivia’s former stylist and friend, Ryan Kay. Olivia, who had introduced Denise to Ryan, reportedly felt hurt by Denise’s decision to continue working with him after their own fallout. A source close to Olivia told Closer magazine: “Olivia feels betrayed by Denise as she thought they were friends, especially after introducing her to a younger audience by featuring her on her podcast.”

Adding to the complexity of the situation, Olivia is going through a tough time following her split with husband Bradley Dack. Despite this, Denise mentioned in her video that she’s been keeping up with Olivia’s life by reading about her on Instagram, but hasn’t reached out directly. “I haven’t seen her, I haven’t talked to her. I just read about her on Instagram, and that’s it,” Denise said.

The emotional video sparked even more curiosity about the true reasons behind the fallout. While Denise didn’t dive into specific details, it’s clear that the situation has left both women struggling with the tension. Denise, however, did mention that she’s in more frequent contact with co-star GK Barry, who’s been asking her when she’s going to appear on her podcast. It seems that Denise has found solace in her other friendships, as the feud with Olivia lingers unresolved.

This situation has caught the attention of fans who have been following both Denise and Olivia’s journeys, wondering if there’s more to the story than just a simple misunderstanding. As the two stars continue to go their separate ways, the question remains: Will they ever reconcile, or is this the end of their friendship?

Despite the uncertainty, Denise remains open about her experiences and shared her thoughts candidly, allowing fans a glimpse into the personal side of the drama that’s unfolded behind closed doors. Olivia, meanwhile, has kept a relatively low profile about the situation, with some cryptic social media posts hinting at the turmoil she’s been going through.

As the story continues to evolve, fans are left with more questions than answers. Will Denise and Olivia ever speak again? Or has their friendship truly come to an end?
