Loose Women star set to become a grandmother for the third time as her daughter announces pregnancy
Coleen Nolan 's daughter, Ciara Fensome, is pregnant with her first child. The mother-to-be, 24, took to her Instagram on Saturday to announce that she is expecting a baby with her fiance Maxx Innes, which will be Loose Women star Coleen's third grandchild. To announce the happy news, the brunette was seen cradling her her blossoming bump. She wore an olive green silk dress as she soaked up the sun while she enjoyed a stroll along a beach. Ciara also posted a fun snap with Maxx ad they held up an ultrasound scan of their future child. Alongside the post, she penned: 'One of me is cute but two tho? Baby Innes pending..' Coleen's Loose Women co-star Ruth Langsford flocked to the commments and penned: 'WONDERFUL! Congratulations!' Former panelist Saira Khan chimed in with: 'Wow! ! Congratulations' alongside a red heart emoji. Another comment read: 'Omg massive congrats to you both! ! You two are gonna be the best parents'; 'OMG, massive congratulations to you both! !'. After her post, Ciara confessed that she can 'finally' start posting her holiday snaps now that she has made her announcement. Ciara is currently on holiday in Faliraki with Coleen, who has shared sweet updates from their trip on Instagram. Coleen is already a grandmother to two children. In 2016, her eldest son Shane Jr welcomed a daughter named Amelia before her son Jake became a father to a little boy in 2024. The latest family news comes after Max popped the question during a holiday in Vietnam last year. Ciara posted a photo of the couple holding hands as she showed off her new engagement ring and revealed Max proposed during a late night boat ride. 'This happened last night xxxx' she wrote alongside a photo of the ring. 'It was like a fairytale and I can't wait to spend forever with you @maxxiness I love you xxx'. After the news, Coleen shared a photo of the happy couple to her Instagram and wrote: 'Well what can I say… I'm so so delighted that @maxxinnes has asked my beautiful girl @ciarafensome to marry him. 'I love them both sooooo much. Miss them even more! Can't wait to see them. Off to buy a hat.' Coleen was inundated with congratulatory messages from people wishing Ciara and Max well. Her Loose Women co-host Denise Welch wrote: '"Good news Coleen congratulations to them both.' Coleen shares Ciara with her second husband Ray Fensome, who she divorced from in 2018. The star is also mother to Shane, 36, and Jake, 32, from her first marriage to Shane Richie. Coleen revealed in January that Ciara had gone travelling with no set return date. Discussing 'Empty Nest Syndrome', the former singer admitted to her fellow panellists Ruth Langsford, Janet Street-Porter and Linda Robson that she has been struggling to cope with the huge family change. Coleen said: 'They've worked really hard and saved up and I'm so proud of them both and her, but honestly, I just can't stop crying... 'But I'm trying not to do it in front of her because I'm thrilled and I'm proud because what an amazing thing to do. But it's like losing my best friend.' Janet then stunned the panel by demanding Coleen 'grow up'. Coleen shared a photo of the happy couple to her Instagram and wrote: 'Well what can I say… I'm so so delighted that @maxxinnes has asked my beautiful girl @ciarafensome to marry him' Ruth pointed out Coleen will find hard to get used to her daughter's absence as Ciara helps 'run her life'. Coleen agreed: 'She is the mother of the house. My son text me the other day and went, "This is going to do you good mum because you need to grow up"'. The Blackpool-born star went on to explain that Ciara not only gives a massive help around the house, but she also does a lot of the cooking - easing the workload at home while her mum gets ready for her one-woman tour. 'It's just very stressful. Empty Nest Syndrome is real!' Coleen admitted emotionally. But Janet quipped: 'Just speaking for her, she's got to be allowed to live her own life.' 'Oh she is being allowed. I don't have to like it, Janet,' replied Coleen, with Janet remarking: 'I know you don't like it but you have got to grow up a bit Coleen. I never thought I'd say those words. But you have got to manage by yourself.' Although Ciara had already moved out of the family house in October last year, the Loose Women star found it harder to cope with her daughter's oversea trip. A source previously told New!: 'Coleen has always tried to be a hands-on mum, even when she and her sisters were touring during The Nolans' heyday, she always wanted them around. She even toured while she was pregnant with Jake... 'Coleen's once bustling farmhouse does feel empty without her children... 'But she's not alone in feeling like this. Her nephew Danny, her sister Maureen's son, has moved to the States with his family, so Coleen and Maureen are in the same boat. They'll be supporting each other, despite their busy schedules.'

TV tonight: it's the last ever series of phenomenal weepy comedy Big Boys
Sunday, 10pm, Channel 4 Prepare for belly laughs and lots of sobbing: it's the third and final chapter of Jack Rooke's touching semi-autobiographical comedy about the friendship between a young gay man and his straight best mate. As the final year of university looms, Jack (Dylan Llewellyn), Danny (Jon Pointing) and the gang are forced to make big decisions about their futures – including Jack's dissertation title ('To Bum Or Not to Bum' is one idea). Before things get serious, though, the opening double bill kicks off with a Faliraki holiday – complete with all the naughty gags, fun 2010s references (look out for the Rylan cameo) and lovely heart-to-hearts that make this show such a hit. It will be missed. Hollie Richardson 9pm, ITV1 Newly acquainted detective duo DCI Jessica James (Sinéad Keenan) and DI Sunny Khan (Sanjeev Bhaskar) may have got off to a bumpy start last season, but they're back with a grisly new case to solve (which is, at least, a welcome relief from their personal dramas). When a spine is found on the Whitney Marsh, there are four potential suspects for Jessica and Sunny to investigate. Continues on Monday. HR 8pm, ITV1 Another pair of celebrities sit in the famous studio, trying to answer 15 questions to win £1m for charity. You can't fault the lineup for variety: will actor Julie Hesmondhalgh or former world cruiserweight boxing champion Tony Bellew display better general knowledge under pressure? Jack Seale 8.05pm, BBC One What a load of rubbish: a bin strike means piles of garbage piling up in Poplar, causing the nuns to dodge rats on the way to work. As Weil's disease leads to illness, death and bad-tempered council meetings, an obstreperous patient brings grief for Nurse Joyce (Renee Bailey). JS 9pm, Sky Documentaries In the second episode of this sobering three-parter, the cracks are starting to show for the boyband, who – says former member Shane Lynch – were tired and broken by the end of the 90s. The grim spectre of the tabloids also looms, as they vie to out Stephen Gately as a gay man. Hannah J Davies 9.05pm, BBC One Keeley Hawes plays Jane Austen's sister, Cassandra, in this fantastic reimagining of the juicy story behind her decision to burn the novelist's private letters. She continues to read them in secret, away from scheming cousin Mary (Jessica Hynes), and is reminded of a great young romance through her sister's words. HR Scott of the Antarctic, 1.15pm, BBC Two We do love a heroic failure in this country, and there's none more so than explorer Robert Scott, who set out to be the first to reach the South Pole but was beaten to it by a smarter man in the Norwegian Roald Amundsen. There's a lot of stiff upper lips and frostbitten toes in Charles Frend's fact-based rendering of the tragic tale, with the great John Mills the epitome of gentility and pluck as his expedition tromp heavily through beautiful Technicolor snowscapes and -40C temperatures towards second place. Simon Wardell Quatermass and the Pit, 11.50pm, Sky Arts Hammer's 1967 adaptation of the third of Nigel Kneale's celebrated BBC sci-fi dramas is easily their best, gripping and well-acted with pretty decent special effects. Andrew Keir is a thoughtful but twinkly-eyed Quatermass, a rocket scientist intrigued when work on a Central line extension in London digs up weird prehistoric ape skulls next to an unusual, possibly alien craft. Supported by palaeontologists James Donald and Barbara Shelley and butting heads with Julian Glover's blinkered military type, he uncovers an ancient, malevolent secret. SW Six Nations Rugby Union: Scotland v Ireland, 2pm, BBC One From Murrayfield Stadium. FA Cup Football: Plymouth v Liverpool, 2.15pm, ITV1 At Home Park. Followed by Aston Villa v Tottenham at 5.20pm on BBC One. American Football: Kansas City Chiefs v Philadelphia Eagles, 10.45pm, ITV1 Super Bowl LIX from Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, with the Chiefs' tight end Travis Kelce, AKA Taylor Swift's other half, going for a fourth title.
