Coleen Nolan BOMBARDED with date offers from toyboys young enough to be her sons

Coleen Nolan says she's been bombarded with messages from younger men asking her for a date ever since her split form husband Ray Fensome.

The Loose Women star, 54, could easily bag herself a toyboy if she were that way inclined.

But it seems she may not be that interested.

Coleen, 54, divorced second husband Ray last year, and hasn't been shy of date offers since.

She told The Sun : "I've been bombarded with compliments from people saying they'd love to take me on a date, but they're usually too young.

"I'm insecure about going out with anyone younger. If I was Coleen Jones who worked in the supermarket up the road, I don't think they would look twice at me."

She added: "I worry that they're only interested in me because I'm on the telly. I don't mind going out with someone younger – maybe 40s upwards – but I couldn't possibly date someone I could have given birth to."

Coleen said while it might make some people feel young, she's worried it would just make her feel old.

It comes after Coleen revealed she's divorced husband Ray over fears she'd die of cancer.

She lost her sister Bernie to cancer and her siblings Linda and Anne have both been diagnosed with breast cancer.

Coleen said the fear of being diagnosed herself made her reevaluate her life, and led to the end of her 11-year marriage to guitarist Ray.

She told The Sun : "Bernie dying was a massive wake-up call for me. Her death changed me and my thought process about life too. When someone so close to you dies, you do think of your own mortality.

"It made me think, 'oh god am I happy?'. I knew I needed to change things. Bernie didn't have that choice."

Coleen said she's accepted that the probability of her battling cancer is high, but that she tries not to get too "paranoid" about it.

She added: "Yes, I could get cancer, but I'm just going to try to enjoy life as much as possible and not get hung up on relationships or marriages not working. I'm still alive. Life really is too short."
