‘I love them both so much. Miss them even more! I can’t wait to see them. Off to buy a hat.’
Coleen, 59, was inundated with well wishes from people wishing Ciara and Max well.
Her Loose Women co-host Denise Welch wrote: ”Great news, Coleen congratulations to them both.’
Coleen shares Ciara with her second husband Ray Fensome, whom she divorced in 2018. The star is also mum to Shane, 35, and Jake, 31, from her first marriage to Shane Richie.
Coleen revealed in January that Ciara had gone on a trip with no set return date.
Discussing ‘Empty Nest Syndrome’, the former singer admitted to fellow panellists Ruth Langsford, Janet Street-Porter and Linda Robson that she has struggled to cope with the huge family change.
Coleen said: ‘They’ve worked and saved really hard and I’m so proud of them both and her, but honestly I just can’t stop crying…
“But I try not to do it in front of her because I’m excited and proud, because it’s a great thing to do. But it’s like losing my best friend.’ Janet then stunned the panel by demanding Coleen grow up.

Ruth pointed out that Coleen will have a hard time adjusting to her daughter’s absence while Ciara helps her “live her life.”
Coleen agreed: “She is the mother of the house. My son texted me the other day and said, “This is going to be good for you, mom, because you need to grow up.”
The Blackpool-born star went on to explain that not only does Ciara help out a lot around the house, but she also does a lot of the cooking, which eases the workload at home while her mother gets ready for her upcoming one-woman tour.
‘It’s just very stressful. The Empty Nest Syndrome is real!’ Coleen admitted emotionally.
But Janet joked: ‘I’m only speaking for her: she should be able to live her own life.’
“Oh, she can. I don’t have to like it, Janet,” Coleen replied, with Janet commenting, “I know you don’t like it, but you need to grow up a little, Coleen. I never thought I would say these words. But you have to make it yourself.’

Although Ciara had already left her parental home in October last year, the Loose Women star found it more difficult to cope with her daughter’s holiday abroad.
A source previously told New!: ‘Coleen has always tried to be a hands-on mum, even when she and her sisters were on tour during The Nolans’ heyday, she always wanted them around. She even toured while pregnant with Jake…
‘Coleen’s once vibrant farm feels empty without her children…
‘But she’s not the only one who feels this way. Her cousin Danny, her sister Maureen’s son, has moved to the United States with his family, so Coleen and Maureen are in the same boat. They will support each other despite their busy schedules.”
