Coleen Nolan was accused of 'bullying' Kim Woodburn when she appeared as a guest on Loose Women this week, and a petition was set up to get her fired from the show.

The petition reads: "The treatment of Kim Woodburn by Coleen Nolan on Loose Women today (Wednesday 29 August 2018) was outrageous and should be condemned.

"We, the undersigned, demand Coleen Nolan is removed from the Loose Women panel indefinitely for her atrocious act of unprovoked bullying. Say “No” to Nolan!"

The petition has garnered over 10,000 signatures at the time of writing.

Coleen herself responded to the controversy earlier this week, telling The Mirror: "Anyone that knows me knows I’m not a bully. That would be the most hurtful thing people could call me."

"From the moment she arrived, it was clear Kim didn’t want to make up. Now I wish I could go back in time and not do it. It was ugly, upsetting and unpleasant for everyone."

On Wednesday of this week (29 August), Kim Woodburn, who first clashed with Coleen when they appeared in CBB together last year, stormed off Loose Women and called her 'trash' after a bust-up with the panel.

Kim was reduced to tears after claiming that she was bullied by Coleen in the house, and shouted: "I wouldn't want to sit and talk with lying trash. She's a horrible person. You are trash, you're a piece of filth!" before storming off the Loose Women set.

Her shocking statement came after she spoke about her childhood, saying: "I had a very very sad childhood, I had a brutal childhood."

And while Kim was talking, Coleen whispered: "We got this every day as well.

"She's going to cry in a minute."
