Loose Women CANCELLED as ITV panel bid farewell to viewers ahead of schedule shake-up set to leave fans livid

Friday’s instalment of Loose Women has been cancelled in a schedule shake-up.  

Kaye Adams, 62, revealed the news at the end of Thursday’s episode of the ITV show. 

Loose Women usually airs Monday to Friday from 12:30pm on ITV1. 

But at 1pm tomorrow (6 June 2025), ITV will air the racing, so viewers will enjoy the first Derby meeting from Epsom.

After Kaye’s co-stars Frankie Bridge, 36, Nadia Sawalha, 60, and Kelly Brook, 45, showed viewers how they sleep at night, Kaye said: ‘Well thank God I’m going! That’s it for today and this week sadly.

‘We’re off tomorrow for the racing.

‘We’ve got a great line-up next week though, including Cheshire housewife Tanya Bardsley, 44, Atomic Kitten’s Liz, 44.

‘She shares a very personal health story. Plus Si King, 58, and Alison Hammond, 50, are here too.

‘We will see you Monday. Have a great weekend!’ 

Loose Women has been hitting headlines recently after it was revealed the chat show, along with Lorraine, has been axed for half the year.

ITV announced the big shake up to its daytime schedule amid huge cuts last month.

Loose Women will only air for 30 weeks of the year.

Plus MailOnline recently revealed that ITV will axe a vital part of the show which viewers love in a desperate bid to save money.

The series is scrapping their live studio audience when the programme airs with a reduced schedule of just 30 episodes next year.

Bosses have got rid of the studio audience to save costs, with insiders revealing that it’s an expensive feature due to being managed by an external company, who also provides security and a warmup person, but for the presenters, it’s going to be a ‘disaster.’  

A TV source told MailOnline: ‘The panelists are really upset over the decision to axe the live studio audience from the show.

‘It’s what sets the series apart from the rest of ITV daytime and now there are mᴀssive fears that viewers will switch off completely.

‘The only concern now is to cut costs and having a live studio audience can be expensive, with the added need for security and a warmup artist.

‘Presenters already know how it feels to broadcast the show without an audience because that’s what happened during the pandemic, and they all know it creates low mood and lack of atmosphere.’

Meanwhile Kaye Adams has broken her silence on the brutal ITV cuts.

She admitted that she’s suffered ‘sleepless nights’ after her ‘life imploded’ and ‘has no idea what’s going to happen.’ 

She told her How To Be 60 podcast co-host Karen MacKenzie: ‘To be perfectly honest, we have no idea at this point, what’s going to happen.

‘I didn’t anticipate it, which is probably stupid in retrospect. You get into a sort of rhythm of life.

‘I had a couple of sleepless nights I have to say, because it’s just like the rug’s been pulled from under your feet – what has been familiar.’

She continued: ‘It’s going to have an impact. Lots of people will lose their jobs completely which is terrible. It’s a huge change.’

Loose Women airs weekdays on ITV1  from 12:30pm and is available to stream on ITVX.
