Nadia revealed that the ITV daytime stars actually share an ‘intense’ friendship and bond because they share their ‘own experiences and thoughts’ on the show and in meetings, which has brought them closer.
She continued: ‘I love being a part of the panel, meeting people over such a long period of time and the intensity. In our meetings there is no show until we have had a meeting; the show comes from our own experiences, our own thoughts, so having an intense friendship is awesome.
Nadia enthused how she’s made “great friends” on the show and “never in a million years has she had a friend like Kay Adams and Jane Moore” if she hadn’t bonded because they “would never have met.”
It comes after Denise Welch responded to rumors of a feud with her Loose Women co-stars earlier this month.

Last month, Loose Women descended into chaos after Denise and Jane Moore got into a heated argument over Prince Harry.
The panel discussed a leaked excerpt from his Spare biography, in which the Duke of Sussex accused his brother, Prince William, of physical assault.
Denise furiously defended Harry by declaring herself ‘team Harry and Meghan’, but was met with resistance from Jane, who described her accusations as ‘hurtful’.
Denise told Jane that she found it “strange” that she was “so against Harry and Meghan” given her years working as a royal correspondent.
‘Why shouldn’t Harry say peace, Jane? I think he had to get away from a family, they did it behind his back,’ she shot.
Jane interrupted, arguing that Harry was only looking to “make money” before Denise replied, “Jane, you told me about interrupting.”
“The fact is that the royal family makes quite a bit of money,” he continued.
They’ve been leaking stories. We know they have. As soon as Meghan was seen as the People’s Princess, it was game over, because William and Kate have to stay in those positions.
‘Meghan was in those rooms on the world stage with charities, she didn’t just do that when she married Harry.
‘I think you do what you like. Tell your story because I think it’s absolutely the worst thing that’s ever happened to them.
‘Tell your story but don’t sell your story. Is it blind support or do you accept that they have made some mistakes? Jane replied.
Meanwhile, in August 2020 it was reported that Denise had unfollowed Coleen Nolan after her manager branded Nadia Sawalha “nasty” and a “witch”.
However, she is now following her co-star.
