ITV Loose Women's Charlene White hints at I'm A Celebrity backlash as she enjoys Christmas lunch with co-stars

Loose Women star Charlene White appears to have hinted at her I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here backlash after she enjoyed a Christmas lunch with her co-stars. The presenter and one of the ITV lunchtime show's anchors headed out with the ladies after her last stint on the programme of the year on Tuesday (December 20).

Charlene donned a vibrant pink suit for her last Loose Women of the year and after finishing up on-screen she headed straight to join the likes of Frankie Bridge, Coleen Nolan, Katie Piper, Kelly Holmes, Linda Robson, and Jane Moore as they enjoyed a lavish Christmas meal and drinks.

Nadia Sawalha, Christine Lampard and Judi Love, who was among those taking to social media to share a glimpse inside the celebrations, were also in attendance.

Judi took to Instagram to share a brilliant video of the gang posing for a snap together as they cheered 'Loose Women' at the camera. "I feel so blessed to be a part of such an amazing team, from the lovely ladies on the panel and the team behind the camera," she typed alongside the clip.

"You are all truly amazing. Love you all. #JudiLove @loosewomen." Charlene also took to her Instagram Story to show clips of the ladies and those who work behind the scenes on Loose Women taking part in some festive games

"Christmas work party with my @loosewomen gang love these ladies and our men behind the scenes," Katie wrote on her Instagram Story alongside a snap of the lengthy table that had been filled with festive fizz and a roast dinner. In a later snap, she added: "Great night with all my @loosewomen ladies and our amazing production crew who make the show what it is."

Charlene also shared a video of the group having a bit of a giggle as they created their own video to the Birds of a Feather theme tune in honour of Linda. But as she captioned her post, she appeared to hint at the backlash she faced during her time in the Australian jungle last month when she refused to share the RV with former health secretary Matt Hancock.

Fans were outraged that she refused to take the camp's luxury option after Matt chose her as his deputy leader in camp. But it wasn't for days later that she was seen in the jungle explaining that she couldn't share the more intimate space with the Tory MP due to her position on ITV News as an impartial journalist.

"There are SEVERAL videos I can’t post from today’s Loose Women Christmas lunch (I am the lady from the News obvs. And some things must be kept between friends and colleagues)…" she penned with crying laughing emojis. "However, the @loosewomen team creating a dance routine for the Birds Of A Feather theme tune in honour of @lindarobson58 is one of the few videos I can post."

She added: "And thanks to Chris and all the other staff at the venue who helped us create this masterpiece! Oh… and my Loose Women bosses are in this video too. Which is one of the many reason why Loose Women ROCKS."
