Loose Women Panel Safe Amid ITV Cuts

ITV's planned daytime schedule overhaul, set to commence in January 2026, will see Loose Women broadcast for 30 weeks of the year. Despite initial fan concerns and a 'tense' period following the announcement in May, the show's core panel of presenters and panelists is confirmed to remain unchanged. This assurance comes as a significant relief to those involved, particularly after some expressed uncertainty about their future roles.

The upcoming changes are part of a broader ITV shake-up that will affect other daytime programs as well. While viewers will experience a reduced number of episodes for Loose Women, the show's talent will be unaffected. An ITV spokesperson reiterated the network's commitment to the panel, emphasizing that no faces will be lost from the screen. Any necessary job reductions will be managed through production team consolidations, not by removing on-air personalities.

This update provides clarity for the Loose Women cast, including long-standing members and newer additions, who were reportedly feeling apprehensive about potential job losses. The focus remains on maintaining the familiar on-screen presence that audiences have come to expect, even as the show adapts to a revised broadcast schedule for the upcoming year.
