Coleen Nolan reveals terrifying health scare which led to her finally give up 40-year smoking habit: 'I thought I was going to die!'


The Loose Women star, 58, recalled becoming so unwell she was left 'gasping for air' and 'struggling to breathe'.

Now 12-weeks cigarette free, Coleen told of how she suffered a panic attack as a result of her breathing troubles, when she was unable 'to walk a few feet' without having to stop due to feeling 'constantly winded.' Back in 2020, Coleen admitted she 'wasn't yet ready' to give the habit up in a firey on-air clash with Loose Women co-host Denise Welch When quizzed by host Kéllé Bryan on whether walking past smokers makes her fear she'll fall back into the habit, Denise went on: No, I just feel so much healthier and it's mainly the smell of it.
