THE LOOSE Women panellists shocked fans as they announced a surprise new addition to the panel today.
In a link during This Morning, regular anchor Kaye Adams, 60, revealed Kelsey Parker, 33, would be joining them as a guest panellist.
Tom Parker's widow has appeared on the show a handful of times, but now she'll be in on discussions with the mainstays for the entire half hour.
Kelsey looked delighted and waved enthusiastically at cameras after Kaye broke the unexpected news to presenters Rochelle Humes and Andi Peters.
Loose Women's X account soon posted, "Your Fri-Yay Loose line-up is Kaye, Sunetra and Jane! Plus, Kelsey Parker will also be joining us on the panel too. Tune in at 12.30 on ITV1."
Last month, The Sun revealed Kelsey had reunited with her formerly jailed builder boyfriend Sean Boggans.

She had dated ex con Sean for five months, but ended things around the first anniversary of her husband's funeral.
A source told us: "Kelsey and Sean split up around the anniversary of Tom's death - her head was all over the place around that time and she had a wobble, but Sean still really liked her and pursued her.
“After a few weeks of talking they got back together - she couldn't ignore her feelings for him - and now they're about to go on a 'family holiday' with the kids to see if they can work as a family unit moving forward.
"It's been really hard for them but she wants to give it a shot.”
