Coleen Nolan and her husband Ray Fensome are "still trying to work" at their marriage.
The 'Loose Women' panelist briefly split from her musician spouse earlier this year as they were hoping her three-week stint in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house would save their 17-year relationship and, nine months on, she has admitted they're still together.
Speaking exclusively to BANG Showbiz at the TV Choice Awards earlier this week, she said: "We're still together... We're doing OK and we're trying to work things out."
The 51-year-old star previously said her time away from Ray - the father of her 15-year-old daughter Ciara - made her realise how much she missed him and sparked a return of the "feelings" she has always had for him.
Speaking on 'Loose Women' shortly after she left the abode in February, she said: "If 'Big Brother' was good in any way it was for that, leading up to it, part of me was like I can't wait to go in because I was ready for a break, but when I was in there, there were so many times I thought 'I miss him' or if he'd been in here, we'd have laughed at that and that was a lovely feeling... What it made me feel is those feelings, I'd forgotten I had them so to have moments in the house where I felt them was a lovely thing so I thought there is hope, they were still there."
And Coleen - who also has sons Shane Jr., 28, and Jake, 24, with ex-husband Shane Richie - has vowed to do whatever it takes to save her marriage.
She added: "I will fight for it until there's no fight left in me."
