Coleen Nolan opened up about the sad loss of her sister Bernie on Loose Women today (Thursday April 24).
TV personality Coleen addressed her biggest regret – which came about due to a parenting decision – following Bernie’s passing in July 2013.
The emotional ITV panelist, 60, also noted how the choice she made affected her family’s grieving, admitting she feels “bad” about it.

Coleen Nolan on grieving for sister Bernie
Bernie, who starred in The Bill and Brookside, died from breast cancer nearly 12 years ago.
She was the second youngest of musical sisters Anne, Denise, Maureen, Linda, and Coleen.
Since then, in January of this year, the Nolans suffered another devastating bereavement when they lost Linda, having battled cancer for two decades.
Coleen and Anne have also been diagnosed with cancer previously, with Coleen enduring skin cancer in 2023, and Anne having breast cancer in 2000. The sisters’ brother Brian is also undergoing treatment for prostate cancer.
But Bernie’s death still affects Coleen and her family – and she indicates she still mulls over whether the approach she took at the time was the right one or not.
