Coleen Nolan’s Ex-Partner Shockingly Regrets Relationship, Says He ‘Wishes He’d Swiped Left’ on Tinder
Loose Women’s Coleen Nolan has opened up about her split from Michael Jones, marking the end of their three-year relationship. The TV star and singer, 59, who met Michael on Tinder in 2021, revealed they had an on-and-off romance before calling it quits for good. Despite the breakup, Coleen insists they are still on good terms.
In a candid moment, Coleen shared a playful anecdote about their relationship. “When I get on his nerves I always ask, ‘Do you wish you had swiped left?’ and he goes, ‘Yeah, I really do,’” she admitted while speaking to Kaye Adams on the How To Be 60 podcast, reported by the Express.
Earlier in 2024, Coleen described her romance with Michael as unique and fulfilling. “It is a completely different relationship. I actually feel very grown up for the first time in my life. I feel for the first time it’s 100 percent partnership,” she said. “It’s like having a grown-up relationship, and it’s how men should be.”
Coleen, who was previously married to EastEnders star Shane Richie and later to Ray Fensome, shared how her past experiences shaped her views on relationships. Reflecting on the possibility of remarrying, she admitted she might consider a prenuptial agreement after enduring tough divorces. “If it meant a lot to him, maybe I would, but I’d b****y make him sign a great big piece of paper because I’m not going through that again,” she explained.
In December 2024, Coleen confirmed the breakup to OK! Magazine, explaining that their busy lives made it challenging to maintain the relationship. “It was nobody’s fault, and there were no third parties. I’m really busy with work, and when I’m not busy, I’m on the farm. I feel personally that I can’t give time to everything,” she shared. “We still get along great and hopefully can continue to be friends.”
Fans have admired Coleen’s honesty and resilience throughout her personal journey. As she looks ahead, the mother of three is focusing on her family, career, and finding peace in her personal life.
