LOOSE Woman fans were left baffled today by Coleen Nolan after she waxed lyrical about a plant-based diet despite spending £14,000 a year on cigarettes.

The presenter, 57, opened up about her animal free lifestyle, as they discussed the recent climate protests on the panel.

Coleen told the other women: “If you have seen some of the stuff I have seen, it’s horrific.

“If you see some of the videos I have now seen, you will be horrified and I understand why you don’t want to see them.

“Before I was plant-based I used to ignore the people and say I don’t want to see that. I went plant based for health mainly and then started looking into the animal research and honestly, what I saw. I can’t stand it.”

While many people praised her for speaking out, others questioned her smoking habit.

One person wrote: “Colleen went plant based for health but spends £14k on fags a year 🙄 #LooseWomen.”

A second said: “Colleen, if you're thinking about your health  give up smoking! #loosewomen.”

While a third added: “@loosewomen. Went plant based for her health but still smoking! What a hypocrite.”

Last week Coleen opened up about her addiction, and revealed how much she spends.

"You will be shocked," Coleen confessed.

"The cigarettes I smoke up north, well I smoke them down south as well, but to buy them up north it's about £15 a packet and to buy them in London it's £20!

 "I worked it out recently that if I stopped smoking in a year, I'd probably save between £12,000 to £14,000!"
