Loose Women star Nadia Sawalha opened up to the panel about a huge row with her husband Mark Adderley earlier this week
Loose Women star Nadia Sawalha has revealed she had a major argument with her husband Mark Adderley in the run-up to Christmas.
During Tuesday’s programme, the panel – consisting of Jane Moore, Brenda Edwards, Myleene Klass and Nadia, 61 – tackled the question of whether viewers are prone to giving someone the silent treatment.
Nadia confessed that she and Mark, whom she wed in 2002, had clashed on Monday, leading her to block him on WhatsApp.
Host Jane, 63, remarked to Nadia: “You had one yesterday didn’t you?” prompting Nadia to reply: “Now, Jane!”.
The TV presenter then acknowledged: “I was being all virtuous this morning, wasn’t I? When I was younger, I was terribly into the silent treatment but you know now Mark and I we’ve really learnt to discuss things. Yes, we argue sometimes but I don’t do the silent treatment.”, reports the Express.
“Then I remembered we had a massive row yesterday and I blocked him on WhatsApp! So I had to go back to the girls a couple of hours later and confess and go ‘actually, I do block him, is that like silent?’”
Jane quipped in response: “I didn’t even know you could block people!”
Nadia added: “I mean it is an awful thing to do because it is totally doing the silent treatment but I’d convinced myself, I don’t do the silent treatment anymore, but I do digital silence in my own house!”
Jane joked: “Mark will be watching this now going…” prompting Nadia to reply: “I’m sure he won’t be watching it but he’ll hear about this because somebody will tell him.
“But I do block him because I get to a certain point and we’re going round in circles, and then it’s like neither of us can give up so and actually the argument is actually very silly but we were just so stressed with everything going on and I could see it was blowing and blowing and blowing and blowing so I stopped.
“Then I did unblock him a couple of hours later and did actually say ‘should we just forget, what are we actually arguing about, you know, we’re stressed. I love you, you love me, let’s just stop and if I hadn’t blocked him’, it was a gracious act!”.
