Today’s Loose Women episode started with some “very sad news” as support poured in for co-star Ruth Langsford

Loose Women’s Ruth Langsford continues to be flooded with support after sharing the devastating loss of her dog Maggie.

Charlene White, Brenda Edwards, Judi Love, and Kéllé Bryan returned to ITV screens this morning (Thursday, October 15) to front today’s instalment of Loose Women, where they were on hand to discuss the latest news and headlines from around the globe.

Just seconds in, today’s hosts shared some “sad news” that came as a shock as they expressed their love and support for their co-star, Ruth Langsford.

Earlier this week, Ruth took to social media to share the heartbreaking news that her dog Maggie had died, paying an emotional tribute.

On the show, Charlene said: “We’re going to start with some really sad news, actually. It came as a bit of a shock to all of us this morning when our Ruth shared the news that her beloved dog Maggie has sadly passed away.”

Sharing the emotional tribute Ruth had paid this morning, Charlene then added: “Loads of you watching will of course have known Maggie for years, wouldn’t they? All of us, she’s like a part of our family.”

Brenda said, “We were literally on the panel on Monday talking about Ruth and Maggie. Maggie is in every single conversation, and I’m sending so much love to Ruth right now because this is really sad.”

Admitting she didn’t understand the connection between owner and pet before she got her own cat, Judi added cat Bella is now a ‘part of the family.”

Charlene added: “We just absolutely adore Ruth, and we just know what a hit this will be”, as Kelle replied: “Absolutely, and I think the relationship between Maggie and Ruth’s mum has been one that we’ve all followed, and it’s been so lovely that every time Maggie goes in, mum lights up.”

The panel then sent their love for their co-star as tributes continue to pour in from fans and loved ones on social media.

In an emotional statement online, Ruth shared a photograph of Maggie as she wrote: “It is with a heavy heart that I tell you our beautiful Maggie has gone to sleep forever.

“She was 16 years old, and sadly, this was her time. Her passing was painless and peaceful, and we were with her until the very end. We are so thankful to have had her in our lives for 15 years… she gave us so much joy & unconditional love. We will treasure our memories forever. Rest in peace, our beautiful girl.”

Loose Women airs weekdays on ITV at 12.30pm

CHLOE Ferry has opened up about going under the knife to remove her ‘loose skin’ after getting her BBL taken out.

The Geordie Shore star, 31, got her BBL (Brazilian bum lift) reversed in January 2025.

And now she’s gone under the knife again to deal with the aftermath of the BBL reversal and the loose skin she was left with in its place.

Taking to Instagram to share a selfie from her hospital bed, Chloe penned: “This is something I’ve found really difficult to open up about because it’s incredibly personal and private to me.

“I’ve gone back and forth about whether to share it, but I feel like if my experience can help even one person, then it’s worth being honest about.”

She then got candid, writing: “A year ago, I had my BBL removed, and honestly, I thought that would be the end of my journey with it. I thought I could finally move on and put it all behind me.

“Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case. I’m now left with quite a lot of loose skin after getting my BBL removed around that area, and after a lot of thought, I’ve made the difficult decision to have it surgically removed.”

Chloe added: “What I’ve learned through all of this is that surgery is never as simple as it can look from the outside. Especially when it comes to cosmetic surgery, corrective procedures or removals, there can be consequences you never imagine when you’re making that initial decision.

“And I really wish I could go back and speak to the 19-year-old version of myself.

“I wish I could tell her that she was already enough. That her body didn’t need fixing. That she didn’t need to change herself to feel beautiful, accepted or worthy.

“At 19, you don’t always understand how permanent some decisions can be. You don’t always think about what happens years later, when your body changes and you’re left dealing with consequences you never expected.”

Concluding her post, she added: “I’m not sharing this to judge anyone who has had, or is considering, cosmetic surgery. Everyone has their own reasons, experiences and journeys. I’m simply sharing mine because I wish someone had shared something like this with me when I was younger.

“If this reaches even one young girl who is thinking about changing her body and makes her pause for a moment and ask herself, “Do I really need to do this?” then sharing something this personal will be worth it.”

Chloe had previously spoken out about being “unhappy” with her bum for a long time.

The Sun revealed she was going under the knife for a BBL reversal last Januaury.

“Chloe’s first priority is sorting out her bum,” a source spilled to The Sun at the time.

“She has been unhappy with it for a long time and she is in surgery today. 

“She’s not sure yet if it will be fully removed or just reduced, but she just wants her old bum back,” they added.

Chloe previously shared how she had spent over £50,000 on cosmetic procedures.

Over the years, Chloe has gone under the knife several times, with some of the operations being for two nose jobs, liposuction and breast augmentation.
