Former Loose Women panellist sparks 'feud rumours' after quitting show 10 years ago
The former Loose Women legend previously revealed that she will not return to the ITV show for the 25th anniversary.
Loose Women is set to celebrate their 25th anniversary this September but Jane McDonald has revealed she will not be returning. The ITV star appeared on the show for 10 years and was loved by many.
However, she left the popular chat show back in 2014, but was tipped to return for the special episode. But since she stepped away from the show, she has gone on to front several popular shows.
Looking back at her time with the women, she explained that her group were extremely close and struck up a unique bond. She told Woman magazine that they were "a force to be reckoned with".
“Never say never. But it was a period in time when everything was different. We could get away with things that we could never do now. And it was an era of girls who were not just colleagues – we were a force to be reckoned with," she said.
Comparing her and the likes of Andrea Mclean to female icons from Sex and The City, Jane said they would also enjoy nights out and spent quality time together.
The singer added: "We were like Sex and The City when we hit the town. We’d have taken a bullet for each other. I don’t think I could go back without my friends on the same panel.”
After speculation grew surrounding her big return, Jane’s representatives previously shut down reports.
They said that she would not be taking part in the anniversary special, saying: "There are no discussions taking place with regards to Jane returning to Loose Women whatsoever.

She then told the audience she would be returning again for the show's 25th anniversary celebrations in September.
