Denise Welch has revealed her pride at the news her rock star son is to headline this year’s Glastonbury festival.

The Loose Women star, 66, and ex-husband Tim Healy, 73, are proud parents to son Matty Healy, 35, who is the lead singer of pop rock band The 1975.

On Thursday, it was announced that the Chocolate hitmakers will be leading the line-up on Friday alongside the likes of Biffy Clyro and Alanis Morissette when the music festival returns to Somerset’s Worthy Farm in June. 

Taking to Instagram shortly after the announcement, Denise shared an image of the line-up as she told how she would be attending her very first festival, writing: ‘I guess I’ll be going to my first UK festival!!!’ 

The TV personality also shared the snap on her Instagram stories, before excitedly penning: ‘Look who’s headlining on the Friday!!! Popping out to buy some wellies.’

Fans of the actress, who also shares son Louis 24, with Tim, were quick to share their excitement for her in the comments.

One penned: ‘This is amazing ❤️ you must be so so proud!’, while another shared: ‘Proud mom moment for sure!!! So exciting!!!!’ 

Meanwhile, while Denise is thrilled by her boy’s headlining slot, the same couldn’t be said for some Glastonbury fans. 

Moments after the acts, which included Olivia Rodrigo, were announced, fans who had already purchased their tickets took to social media in their droves to complain about the line-up.

Branding it the ‘worst one ever’, they claimed that the globally recognised event had ‘gone so far downhill’ in comparison to previous years.

Fans who didn’t manage to bag entry during the November sale admitted they no longer minded about missing out following the announcement.

British pop-rock group the 1975 and the US pop-punk songwriter Olivia are both first-time headliners. 

The poster was shared by the official Glastonbury X page this morning with the caption: ‘Here is the first Glastonbury Festival 2025 line-up poster.’

It added: ‘Many more acts and attractions still to be announced.’

While The 1975 have been revealed as the top billing for the Friday night on the Pyramid Stage, pop princess Olivia, who performed on the Other Stage in 2022, will serve as the headline act on the closing night of the event.

Canadian singer-songwriter Neil Young will fill the Saturday night slot, which will also see performances from Charli XCX, Raye and Doechii.

Denise’s pride comes after she shared a sweet family clip celebrating Christmas as she posted a video of her son Matty, his fiancée Gabbriette and herself dancing the night away.

Taylor Swift’s ex-boyfriend Matty, who proposed to Gabbriette, 26, in June, looked smitten as they joined the Loose Woman, 66, for some festive celebrations. 

All dressed in black, the three of them stood in a triangle, two-stepping to a Last Christmas remake while enjoying a farm trip away in Derbyshire.

While she shared the sweet moment among the three, the TV personality also updated her fans and revealed that she has pulled out of her upcoming pantomime gig due to a ‘few bumpy weeks health-wise’. 

Resharing the clip, Denise wrote: ‘I’ve had a very bumpy few weeks health wise which resulted in sadly having to pull out of my first panto in 12 yrs. 

‘So it was lovely to feel well enough to enjoy Christmas with my family. 

‘I’m eventually getting round to posting a few videos. @gabbriette & Matty #bleaklowfarm’
