The former EastEnders actress got fans talking over the weekend after asking who could relate to having to wait and watch their children take part in various weekend clubs. She said: "Who, just like me, spends your Saturday mornings freezing cold either on the sides of the football pitch or watching horse riding, for hours and hours. Just standing there, with your face fixed in a smile, really happy because your children are happy."

The Loose Women panellist joked about taking her children to weekend activity clubs

The 54-year-old's tongue-in-cheek video went down a treat with fellow mums, with one saying: "I served my time with two sons at Saturday and Sunday league. I feel your pain." Another added: "Yep, been there got the football T-shirt." A third said: "You will miss it when they get older."

Nadia – who is the older sister of Ab Fab actress Julia Sawalha – recently spoke out about her oldest daughters heartbreaking ordeal with bullies, revealing on Loose Women that they would often make her cry as a result. She said that she would ask them: "Do you know how you used to talk to her would end her crying?" She then went on to say: "I don’t think they knew [if they are in the wrong]. It's safe to be in the group, to be with the bullies. It doesn’t mean that you are necessary cruel."
