Loose Women fans were left shaken when the popular ITV show made its much-anticipated return after a six-week break—only to find that Linda Robson was nowhere to be seen. The Birds of a Feather star, 68, has been absent from the panel since early February, and viewers are beginning to question if she’s been replaced for good!
Despite familiar faces like Ruth Langsford, Kay Adams, and Christine Lampard returning to the show, Linda’s absence sparked a flurry of fan speculation. Social media lit up with concerned fans asking, “Where’s Linda?” and wondering if her time on the show was coming to an end. One viewer even asked, “Have they replaced Linda now?”
In a recent post announcing the new week’s panel, ITV showcased a line-up with newer stars GK Barry and Lisa Riley alongside the familiar faces, but Linda’s name was noticeably missing. Fans are desperate for answers, especially after Linda’s comments in November, where she revealed she wasn’t sure about her future on Loose Women following ITV’s big financial cuts.
Back then, Linda shared with The Mirror that she might have to “go back to the fish and chip shop” if her role on the show wasn’t secure.
But don’t panic just yet, Linda fans! According to insiders, the actress has NOT been dropped from the show. Rather, she’s been taking a well-deserved break and is expected to return soon.
A show source reassured viewers, saying, “Linda hasn’t been dropped from the show. She’s simply taking some time off and hopes to return shortly.” So, no need for Linda to be frying fish just yet!
While we wait for her return, it seems like fans will have to hold tight a little longer before Linda makes her grand comeback. Could she be back on the panel soon? Fans certainly hope so!
