Former Loose Women star Carol McGiffin has shut down rumours about her returning to the ITV show, branding it “that little job”.

Fans have been eagerly awaiting her return stating “it’s not the same without you”, however, Carol dispelled the hope for her third stint. The television star was an integral part of the ITV panel starting in 2000 to 2013 and then back again from 2018 to 2023.

 

Her exit was rather controversial as she claimed she was “forced” to leave. In the past year, she confessed her grievances on leaving behind familiar faces like Nadia Sawalha and Denise Welch stating: “I feel quite upset about it, if I’m honest, because although it is my decision, I felt like it was one I was being forced to make. No one in their right mind would have signed that contract and I can’t see a way back from it.”

Despite squashing speculation about getting back to the popular daytime show, it seems Carol hasn’t called it quits yet. She playfully informed her 154,000 Instagram followers that she was not “totally retired yet”. Further embracing honesty, Carol used an update on Instagram to further promote her podcast.

She posted a snapshot fit with a microphone and wrote: “Apparently, some people are missing me,” She continued saying, “Not because I haven’t been on here for ages but because I’m not on that daytime ITV show I used to do, Loose Women. Sadly that little job isn’t coming back but I’m not totally retired yet,” reports OK!.

Carol has been actively promoting her audio project, telling fans, “I’m still doing this podcast which is called ‘What’s Your Problem With Nick Abbot and Carol McGiffin?’ and it’s available on most podcast outlets. We’ve been doing it for over four years and quite a lot of people like it! Go on, give it a go! You might enjoy it and you might even laugh.”

Her dedicated fanbase hasn’t been shy about their disappointment following her departure from Loose Women. One supporter stated, “Loose Women is utterly boring now. Stopped watching about 2 years ago. Carol only one worth listening to.” Another commented, “Loose Women is SO boring without you. All the good original people keep leaving.”

 

Echoing the sentiment, a third added, “Loose Women is definitely not the same without you. Hardly watch it now. Didn’t know you had a podcast – I do now so I will be tuning in.” A fourth fan expressed their nostalgia, saying, “Do miss you on Loose Women, turn off some days, can’t stand some of them on the panel now, we’ve had the best I fear, enjoy your semi retirement.”

 

Discussing her decision to leave with Best magazine last year, Carol disclosed that the terms offered by ITV were unacceptable. She clarified, “The problem was, ITV were insisting, for the first time since I went back in 2018, that if I wanted to carry on doing the show, I would have to sign a contract that was totally unjust and unworkable for me, so I had to say ‘no thanks’.”
