RUTH Langsford opened up on her recent health issues as she returned to work at Loose Women. <\/p>\n
The ITV star was joined by Coleen Nolan, Dame Kelly Holmes and Janet Street-Porter on Monday's edition of the daytime panel show. <\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
However, Ruth, 63, gave her co-stars and the audience present an update as she was forced to take a leave of absence of the programme. <\/p>\n
The presenter first gave her introduction to the programme as she let viewers know what was coming up. <\/p>\n
However, Coleen, 58, turned to her Loose Women co-star as she exclaimed: "Where the hell have you been?"<\/p>\n
To which Ruth replied: "I've been poorly on sick leave! It's very nice to be back in the real world."<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The presenter was forced to miss the National Television Awards asco-stars represented the show at the glitzy event. <\/p>\n
After Coleen joked that she'd missed Ruth, even though she herself was barely in the studio last week, the anchor went onto explain what was wrong.<\/p>\n
"I had a chest infection, was on antibiotics, [it was] awful, wiped out.<\/p>\n
Cutting to her husband Eamonn Holmes' video of her with her vaporiser, she continued: "I know Susanna Reid is off today, she's lost her voice.<\/p>\n

I just thought 'Oh I got a bit of a cold,' I was doing the Lemsip and the honey and lemon and all that stuff you do. <\/p>\n "And I was kind of lying on the bed feeling sorry for myself and I was like, 'What's that noise? Where is that funny noise?'<\/p>\n "Then I realised it was my chest, it was literally like a death rattle, and then I was like 'I need to go to the doctor'. <\/p>\n After a course of antibiotics, Ruth says she is feeling better, but she hasn't made quite the full recovery as the illness is hard to shift. <\/p>\n She added: "I feel absolutely fine but I've still got this croaky kind of thing in my chest"<\/p>\n "A friend of mine has had it for four weeks, I'm feeling fine and back at work and everything, but this cough won't [go away]."<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n And Coleen soon made light of the situation by saying there's a lot of "chest heal" as she pointed towards her own assets. <\/p>\n The former singer even declared that she would be "off for six months," if she caught a cough similar to her co-star. <\/p>\nBarbara Windsor’s widower Scott Mitchell breaks silence on new romance<\/h3>\n
