Summary
Coleen Nolan has always had a very open relationship with her children. When it comes to having conversations with them, nothing is off the table, explains the TV personality and member of The Nolan Sisters . When her son told her he had sex for the first time, it was possibly a more personal sharing of details than many parents are used to when it comes to their teenagers’ lives, but Nolan says her own experiences of growing up, with parents who didn’t like to talk about certain things, made her particularly conscious to be a mother whose children could speak to her about anything. In today's episode, Nolan shares what it was like growing up in the spotlight, navigating being a parent amid marriage separation, and bringing up teenagers under the glare of the British tabloids. Produced by Andrew McNair. The series producer is Declan Conlon. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
