Loose Women panellist Coleen Nolan split with her beau Michael Jones in April 2022, but after meeting on Tinder three months earlier, the pair are now giving things another go – and Coleen has never been happier

Coleen Nolan recently admitted she has ‘never been happier’ as she confirmed she is in a new relationship – and as it turns out, it’s with someone she had already known for quite some time.

The Loose Women star, 58, has new love in her life after splitting from supermarket worker Michael Jones back in April of 2022 after the pair spent a year together.

Getting back on the dating scene wasn’t easy for Coleen, as she opened up about the insecurities which held her back in her finding love, but the TV star has now confessed that she’s back with Michael, admitting that it feels like a whole new relationship after they decided to give things another go following their split last year.

Coleen, 58, and Michael went public with their relationship in January 2022, before calling time on things three months later.

However, a source said that the couple ‘stayed close’ following their split and are now taking things slow the second time around.

“They are just taking things slowly, not labelling it, and just seeing what happens. Coleen and Michael have been on and off since they broke up last year. In fact, you could say they didn’t completely call it off at all,” a source close to the couple revealed.

“They spoke to each other almost every other day but hadn’t put a label on it. They weren’t officially together as a couple but they were still in each other’s lives.

“Now Coleen has spoken out about her relationship on Loose Women, it suggests she is ready to admit to herself, and others, that they are official again. Coleen has often struggled with her confidence in relationships, but as she said herself, now she has truly opened herself up, she has never been happier. It is lovely to see her feeling this way,” the insider added to OK! Magazine.

As she appeared on Loose Women last week, Coleen discussed what it is like getting into a new relationship.

Yet, she candidly admitted that stance held her back following her split with Michael.

“Gradually over time with the person I’m with now, it has taken a longer time and it’s my fault because I keep thinking I’m not used to this,” she told the panel.

The TV presenter and singer has been through a lot in each of her relationships over the years.

Coleen has been married twice – the first time to EastEnders star Shane Richie and the second to Leeds musician Ray Fensome.

Coleen and Shane were together for many years and even welcomed their first child together, Shane Jr, in 1988.

In 1990, the couple decided to tie the knot by eloping to Florida and two years later, they welcomed their second son, Jake.

However, their relationship was soon plagued with infidelity claims when Shane moved to Manchester on his own to take on the role of Danny Zuko in Grease in 1996.

The couple eventually split in 1999.

Coleen and Ray welcomed daughter Ciara, in June 2001 and became engaged to him four years later.

The duo tied the knot in November 2007 but after two years of marital difficulties, Coleen announced in 2018 that the two were divorcing.

Coleen then dipped her toes into the world of online dating after her split from Ray in 2018 as she began dating a supermarket worker Michael Jones – who she met on Tinder.
