During the broadcast, Coleen Nolan joked that she returned to work "for a rest" because her house has become a revolving door of newborns and nappies.

She expressed her deep obsession with the new arrivals, stating that she didn't think she had any more love to give until they appeared.

While the Loose Women appearance was celebratory, Coleen Nolan also touched upon the family’s recent health anxieties.

Shortly after his birth, Cruz-Carter spent time in the hospital after developing a high temperature and breathing difficulties during a bout of the flu that affected several family members.

Coleen Nolan described the experience as "scary" and "a reality check," but confirmed that the infant has since made a full recovery.

Fans flooded social media with messages of support, praising Coleen Nolan for her "relatable" and "doting" grandmother persona.
