From Janet Street-Porter and Coleen Nolan, to Jane Moore, there\u2019s no denying the stars of Loose Women are a bit unlucky when it comes to love. In fact, they\u2019ve even joked themselves over the years that the show is cursed because so many of them file for divorce after joining. <\/p>\n

Now, as Linda Robson calls it quits with her husband of 33-years Mark Dunford, the curse could be making the rounds again\u2026 <\/p>\n

Linda Robson<\/b> <\/h3>\n

The 65-year-old actress recently announced that she was divorcing husband Mark Dunford after 33 years together.<\/p>\n

The couple, who wed in 1990 and share two children, Louis, 31, and Roberta, 27, together, first met when Linda would babysit for him, and have been married since 1990. However, they\u2019ve now sadly confirmed they\u2019ve called time on their marriage.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Linda, who has previously admitted they \u2018both want different things\u2019 said, \u201cHe\u2019s a really good dad and we had some good years, but enough is enough. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m keeping busy. I feel fine. I\u2019m just going away on trips all the time.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, it appears things haven\u2019t been quite so rosy for them in recent years as they\u2019ve been candid about being plagued with marital struggles.<\/p>\n

These testing times included the fact they haven\u2019t been intimate for over two years and their kids each being subjected to traumatic events when Lauren was diagnosed with bulimia and Louis with PTSD.<\/p>\n

It sounds like happier times are on the horizon for them both!<\/p>\n

Coleen Nolan<\/b> <\/h3>\n

Coleen has had her fair share of heartache of the years, including the breakdown of her first marriage to EastEnders \u2019 Shane Richie and her most-recent divorce from second husband Ray Fensome.<\/p>\n

The 58-year-old said \u2018I do\u2019 to Shane in 1900 and had two sons – Shane, 34, and Jake, 31 – together. However, they split in 1999 after claims he was unfaithful. Coleen then thought she\u2019d found her happily-ever-after in guitarist Ray Fensome, but it wasn\u2019t to last. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Writing in her Agony Aunt column in the Mirror, the singer cited the reason for divorce as an attempt to be happy again and also admitted she stayed in her two marriages because of her children.<\/p>\n

She wrote: \u201cWomen who\u2019ve tried everything to fix a marriage but still feel desperately unhappy, have to get out. We owe it to ourselves. And we also owe it to our kids to show them that everyone has a right to be happy.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, on an exciting note, Coleen was linked to a new flame Michael Jones, who she met on a dating app, and exclusively revealed to OK!<\/b> this year that she\u2019s ready for another shot at love. <\/p>\n

Janet Street-Porter<\/b> <\/h3>\n

You\u2019d be forgiven for thinking that 76-year-old Janet has all but given up when it comes to love, especially as she\u2019s filed for divorce four times.<\/p>\n

But the journalist has been dating long-term partner and restaurateur Peter Spanton, 65, since 1999 and has kept their relationship entirely out of the limelight. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Rewind a few years though, and marriage appeared to be entirely on Janet\u2019s mind as she walked down the aisle to a string of men, including Tim Street-Porter from 1967 to 1975, Tony Elliot during the years of 1975 to 1977, Frank Cvitanovich throughout 1979 to 1981, and lastly David Sorkin from 1997 to 1999.<\/p>\n

Romance, sadly, fizzled out for each marriage, with Janet admitted during her first one to having several affairs in her autobiography. Then, for her second, third and fourth nuptials, she dubbed them as \u201cmistakes\u201d.<\/p>\n

She once revealed: \u201cI once married a man I had known for just two months – but I was having a midlife crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, while Janet has been very open about her marriage regrets, she has previously told Loose Women viewers she still has all of her wedding and engagement rings. <\/p>\n

Jane Moore<\/b> <\/h3>\n

It goes without saying that separating after years of marriage can take time, and Jane knows exactly that.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The 61-year-old publicly announced her split from husband of almost-20-years Gary Farrow in December last year, but admitted that it was a long time coming as they\u2019d actually delayed it for a year. <\/p>\n

The TV presenter explained it was for health reasons and that she felt she should care for her husband – who she shares daughters Ellie and Grace with – after he suffered a painful injury.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had discussed it last year and it was going to happen last year, and then he fell and broke his leg,\u201d Jane said. \u201cAnd obviously, then all bets are off.\u201d<\/p>\n

Their relationship, however, ended amicably, as she went on to describe him as her \u201cbest friend\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
