The 65 year old appeared on Tuesday’s instalment of the ITV show alongside Janet, Denise Welch, 67, and Coleen Nolan, 60.

After the second advert break, Ruth updated viewers about what they had to expect ahead of the second half of the programme.  

Speaking to the camera, Ruth asked: ‘Do you like munching on something tasty?’

And Janet couldn’t contain herself and burst into laughter.

The camera then panned at Coleen and Denise, who were also giggling away to themselves over what she had said.
