The bold colour suited Katie perfectly
The mum-of-two appeared on the show alongside parents David and Diane to talk about the new book From Mother to Daughter: The Things I’d Tell My Child that Katie and her mum have written together. They revealed it was inspired by their last Loose Women appearance together in 2017, when Katie and Diane read out excerpts from the diary Diane kept in the aftermath of Katie’s acid attack.
“None of that was ever written to be published. Mum agreed to share a lot of it,” Katie revealed. “I think it was coming on Loose Women, the response on Twitter afterwards was that it was helping and benefiting other mothers, other daughters and that was kind of where the book was born. This is a horrible thing that happened to us, but if we can reframe those thoughts and turn it into something positive, are we not taking ownership back of what happened and taking control of it.”

Katie has always been open about her own struggles as a mum, too. In December, she spoke out about her struggles to breastfeed newborn daughter Penelope. “I just couldn’t produce enough milk to fully feed her,” she explained, before revealing that a breastfeeding counsellor had helped her realise it wasn’t her fault.
