Speaking about what she would personally do, Coleen said: ‘I would like to think I would confront them but I wouldn’t, I’d be scared. I would like to think I would go up to the airline staff and tell them this person’s got Covid…
‘But the other thing is I don’t really wanna tell anyone cos when we get off the plane we’re all gonna be put into quarantine and I wanna go home.’

The Mail on Sunday reported that drama behind the scenes is blighting ITV’s hit show after a succession of stars had a bust-up with Coleen.
It has been claimed that Nadia Sawalha has told the lunchtime chat show’s producers that she will no longer appear alongside Coleen after the singer’s agent, Melanie Blake, called the actress a ‘nasty witch’ on social media.
It is understood that broadcaster Carol McGiffin has also had a falling-out with Coleen, while panellist Stacey Solomon has informed producers that she does not wish to work with Coleen either when she returns from maternity leave next month.

A source said: ‘Stacey is the latest person refusing to work with Coleen, which is proving really tricky. Everyone loves Stacey, as do the viewers, so nobody wants to upset her.
‘It’s a show that is supposed to promote strong women working together, respecting one another’s views, but it’s currently the case that what is going on behind the scenes is quite the opposite of that and much more dramatic.
‘All of the dynamics and the fallings-out have left the poor producers with such a conundrum. It’s a job in itself getting the panels right, but with these added issues, it’s proving tough.’
Insiders on have accused Coleen, a member of the successful 1980s group The Nolans, of behaving in a ‘high and mighty fashion’ behind the scenes.
