Coleen Nolan has received messages of support from fans as she spoke openly and honestly about her menopause symptoms. The Loose Women star is no stranger to sharing her views and thoughts on the ITV show but she also regularly shares updates with her hundreds of thousands of social media followers.
In her latest video post to Instgaram as part of her 'Col's Corner' series, Coleen spoke about how she'd been 'panicking' that she was suffering from the onset of dementia after getting 'scary' symptoms.
