Loose Women’s Carol McGiffin Left In Tears As Cold Feet Breast Cancer Clip Stirs Memories Of Own Diagnosis

As the panel were joined by Cold Feet actor Fay Ripley to discuss her character’s current storyline, Carol burst into tears after seeing a clip from the show. 

“I’m sorry I never cry on TV,” Carol said, as she mopped her tears with a tissue. 

“I haven’t seen that. I know exactly how it feels.”. 

Fay comforted her, saying: “I know you do and that’s the thing we are tackling something that’s in everyone’s lives.

“That’s the thing that was the hardest, because they said to me how do you feel about it.

“Members of my family have cancer and my friends have cancer, the world appears to have cancer.

“The thing that really was the thing for me was that I just didn’t want to let you down.”

Carol admitted to not having seen the current series of the ITV drama, telling Fay: “I thought this will be tough to watch. I hadn’t seen those clips yet. Just the look on your face is how it happens.”

“But, just the look on your face is exactly how it happens isn’t it and keeping it secret as well, I kind of understand that, because I didn’t tell anybody – only Mark [Cassidy, her husband] that’s it.”
