Carol McGiffin has been on Loose Women for nearly a decade, and she is one of the most-loved presenters on the show. She’s brimming with brilliantly funny anecdotes and controversial opinions, and says all the things everyone thinks but would never dream of saying.
Carol is a natural storyteller and over the last few months she’s been in virtual hibernation – turning down invitations, neglecting her lovely fiancé Mark and spending weeks on end sitting in a wonderful overgrown baby grow known as a Slanket®.
And she’s lived quite a life! It wasn’t an easy start – growing up on a council estate; struggling to make ends meet; an early criminal career shoplifting mouth organs from Woolworths… It wasn’t all doom and gloom though – Carol discovered her talent for making people laugh early on and she’s been getting into trouble ever since!
She opens up about her tempestuous marriage to Chris Evans, and reveals why it eventually broke down; she also talks about her infamous seven years of celibacy and why she’s never been frightened of being single. She’s now found happiness with Mark and strongly believes that it’s not how old you are that counts, it’s your outlook on life that keeps you young.
As uniquely entertaining, funny and completely outrageous as the lady herself, Oh, Carol! is a must-read for women everywhere.
