Loose Women producers beg Denise Welch to keep quiet as she almost reveals huge royal gossip

Denise Welch was almost in for a huge telling off from her Loose Women producers on Monday.

The panelist, 61, was recounting some seriously shocking gossip about the Royal Family while bosses were speaking in her ear, warning her not to say any names.

It all started when the Loose Women ladies were discussing the upcoming series of The Crown when Denise questioned how true the storylines are.

She claimed that her friend Betty Driver, who played Hotpot Betty in Corrie, had told her about seeing a royal in a compromising position.

Denise said: "She told me that all the time she was working on Corrie she also kept her London flat which had a roof terrace and she used to go up to her roof terrace..."

Her co-stars Andrea McLean and Jane Moore said they were "worried" about what she was going to say next.

Denise laughed: "It's so funny my producers are going no names Denzie, no names."

But she managed to continue with her story without giving too much away.

"She had other proof that it was the person.
