Loose Women has been pulled off air in yet another ITV schedule shake-up.

Jane Moore was back on presenting duty on Thursday (October 23) alongside panellists Oti Mabuse, Olivia Attwood-Dack and Nadia Sawalha.

Before the credits rolled, host Jane announced: "We won't be on tomorrow (Friday, October 24) because the horse racing is on but we'll be back on Monday (October 27) same time, same place."

It comes after the ITV daytime show was cancelled back in August due to make way for ITV Racing.

The latest shuffle comes ahead of major changes being made in 2026. From next year, the ITV show will only air for 30 weeks from 52, meaning there will be a period of time where it won't be broadcast.

This isn't the only blow being made to Loose Women as they will also be loosing their studio audience, meaning warm-up act Lee Peat, who was seen on air this week, will be axed.

TV star Nadia Sawalha took to social media to share her outrage at the cuts as she commented: "I am totally devastated by this fact, I can't get over it at all.

"Not only because the audience is so important for the show, but also my dear friend Lee who I work with every day."

Loose Women isn't the only show facing changes from next year as Lorraine will be cut down from one hour to half an hour and will also only air for 30 weeks.

During the weeks Lorraine isn't on, Good Morning Britain will air until 10am.

Loose Women is available to watch on ITVX
