However, Nadia explained the reason for the change, confessing it was more necessity than choice.
She told her fellow Loose Women: “I had this allergic reaction and I’ve had to not dye it, so I’ve been furiously spraying it with temporary dye.”
When anchor host Christine Lampard told Nadia about the positive reaction she’d been getting online, Nadia seemed surprised.
“They are loving your hair today,” Christine told her.
