Loose Women faces another blow amidst ITV cuts and 'disappointing' change
The stars of Loose Women have reportedly been left 'disappointed' after they undergo a studio 'downgrade' after it was announced the show was being cut to 30 weeks It's been reported that the Loose Women stars have been hit by yet another blow, and it's claimed that the stars have been left 'disappointed' by their new studio. The show is currently filmed in London's White City but will soon move - with it being reported to be moved to The Hospital Club in Covent Garden. It was revealed that the show would only air for 30 weeks from 52. This is not the only blow, however, as the show will also be losing its studio audience. Reports have also suggested that some of the 26-strong panel could also be cut. Now, it's been reported that the new "broom cupboard" studio will be a third of the size of their old one, leaving the presenters hugely disappointed. It comes after one TV star admitted she sleeps in separate bed to partner as she fumes over pregnancy. "Cast and crew are crestfallen. It feels like a broom cupboard. It's going to be very cramped," a source told The Sun. "It feels like the show they've fought so long and hard to create is slowly being decimated. It's heartbreaking.' ITV also confirmed that there were no plans to change the show being broadcast across ITV1 and ITVX. Earlier this week, Janet Street Porter said the changes wouldn't affect her, although she was sad about the huge changes. "They won't really affect me because I work when I want to work," she shared with Woman Magazine. "I can see they need to save money, but from my point of view, I'm sad they've cut the episodes because Loose Women as a brand is doing extremely well for ITV. "Very well indeed. It's increased its audience share and it's loved by the audience," Janet, who has been part of the show for 11 year,s said. Alongside their daytime show, the Loose Women launched their own podcast in March this year, which was available every Tuesday and Friday on ITVX. The show featured a different duo from the show each episode, who opened up on a wide variety of topics. The podcast is said to do brilliantly on ITVX, with the hosts releasing 20 episodes in the first series. It was later announced that the show would be back for a second series later this summer.

Braless Myleene Klass steps out in all-white outfit as she strolls through London amid Frankie Bridge and Rochelle Humes feud
Myleene Klass turned heads in an all-white outfit as she strolled through London amid her alleged feud with Frankie Bridge and Rochelle Humes. The 47-year-old former Hear'Say songstress went braless in a chic flowing dress as she walked through the busy city on Saturday, making her way to the Smooth Radio studios. The presenter - who is said to have fallen out with former The Saturdays bandmates Frankie and Rochelle - appeared in good spirits as she posed up a storm. Myleene looked sensational in a summery outfit which showed off her incredibly toned physique. She added a huge red Chanel flap bag to accessorise, drawing attention to her effortless appearance. Myleene seemed to shrug off any trace of a feud, looking carefree during her walk. Myleene is said to be at loggerheads with TV personalities Frankie and Rochelle - both former clients of her bodyguard ex-husband. The trio all used to hang out together, with Loose Women hosts Myleene and Frankie attending Rochelle's hen do in 2012. According to new claims, ITV have been forced to step in to help smooth things in the decade-long feud, which is just now coming to light. Yet the following year, Myleene is said to have believed she was being 'blanked' by Frankie and confronted her at the 2013 Glamour Women of the Year awards - which is when the pair requested not to work together. Meanwhile Myleene's feud with Rochelle is said to have been sparked after The Saturdays star recently shared a picture of herself on holiday in Ibiza with husband Marvin and Myleene's ex-husband Graham Quinn. Graham used to work as JLS' tour manager and earlier this month Myleene accused him of cheating on her with an unknown star. According to insiders close to the situation, Rochelle sharing the photo on Instagram the same week she made the revelation was 'game over' for Myleene. It's the latest twist as it's been reported that there has been an underlying conflict between Myleene, Rochelle and Frankie, who all work at ITV. Frankie's representatives have told Daily Mail that there is 'absolutely no feud' between the pair, while those close to Rochelle insist there is 'no feud'. Myleene's representative declined to comment on the situation when the Daily Mail previously reached out for comment. Frankie posted a cryptic social media post on Monday that was captioned: 'You're so quiet… Thanks, you said something five years ago and I've just realised you're actually dead to me.' The TikTok video showed Frankie sipping on a glass of wine and was set to the music of Avril Lavigne's What The Hell. Frankie then added below: 'Takes me a while, but once you're dead you're dead.' She didn't specify who or what incident she was talking about in the post. As for Myleene, she hit headlines last week when she publicly addressed ex-husband Graham's cheating scandal. Graham, 47, started dating Myleene in 2001, having met when he worked as security guard for her pop group Hear'Say. The couple went on to welcome daughters Ava, 17, and Hero, 14, and tied the knot in 2011 after a decade together - only to separate six months later. Speaking on Paul Brunson's We Need To Talk podcast, the mother-of- three, who is also a mother to son Apollo, five, said: 'I walked in on him with a famous person on my birthday on a balcony.' Turning her thoughts towards the other woman, Myleene said: 'I've made peace with that situation now, but for a long time, it was very difficult to see their life. 'My life literally just broke apart very, very publicly and their life, they've managed to continue building a family brand on it. I have to take some accountability. 'Look, you know, first and foremost to my children. My children have asked enough questions and it's never been a case of laying out my stall now. 'It's got to be as and when. But here's the funny thing - school mums, people who just want to gossip, will go to your children before anybody else.' According to the TV presenter, the pair tried to claim that it wasn't what it looked like and she continued: 'I'm in my house, it's my party. They weren't having sex, but they were unzipping each other. 'It's not what you think'. But I'm like, 'It is what I think'. 'It's the first thing they both said. I kicked everyone out of the party, including his mum and dad. They went back to Ireland and his dad said: 'He doesn't get it from me'. 'I remember thinking that was quite a weird thing to say,' she told the love expert. Graham tried to blame the affair on being drunk. Myleene admitted the whole ordeal was a 'pretty big red flag' but still went through with their wedding in October 2011.
