Gabby Allen: Coleen Nolan shocked by Celebs Go Dating scene
gabby allen appears in the middle of the moment Coleen Nolan says left her shocked during filming for Celebs Go Dating. Nolan said viewers will see the scene on tomorrow night’s show, and that one sequence this season caught her off guard even though she described herself as pretty open minded.
Coleen Nolan on the scene
“During this season of Celebs Go Dating, there was a surprising scene that I did that shocked me, and I am sure you will know what I am talking about when you see it,” Nolan said in an interview with EVOKE. She also said, “However, I think it is unfair to tarnish everyone with the one brush, I am pretty open minded.”
That puts the episode on a different footing from a standard dating-show turn. Nolan has been dating on and off for the last few years via dating apps, and she said she has met “some really lovely people,” so the shock point is not that she joined the series, but that one on-screen moment clearly went beyond the usual small-talk-and-matchmaking rhythm.
May 4 on E4
Nolan is set to appear on the E4 show on May 4. She said she signed up because she has been enjoying single life, and she framed what she wants in practical terms: “I want to be able to have a connection with someone similar age to me or the same mindset, that knows the music or films, I love.. I am very young minded and I love a laugh.”
She also drew a hard line on age gaps with a blunt aside: “If I could have breast fed them, I am not dating them.” For a dating format built on quick first impressions, that narrows the field immediately and explains why the series is leaning on personality rather than just profile-sheet compatibility.
Shane, Jake and Ciara
Nolan said her children Shane, Jake and Ciara were “totally up for it,” and she added that her daughter already checks whether a man has a wedding ring on when they are out shopping or in a restaurant. That family backing matters because it places the episode inside a broader personal reset rather than a one-off TV appearance.
She also recalled a previous date going badly when a waiter dropped a tray full of glass and a shard cut her foot, leaving her with “one white shoe and another red shoe” by the end of the night. Nolan later launched a new podcast with Shane and Ciara, which gives this TV turn an extra layer: she is not just revisiting dating on screen, she is doing it while her personal life is already being processed in public.
For viewers, the draw is straightforward: the surprise scene is the reason to watch, because Nolan has already signaled that it is the moment she expects people to remember when the episode lands.
