Linda Robson has opened up about her 'marriage crisis' and the ongoing 'feud' between her and her Birds of a Feather co-stars.
The Loose Women star, 65, has been married to husband Mark Dunford for 33 years and, amid claims that the pair's relationship is in crisis, Linda has put the rumours to bed – insisting that she and Mark are happier than ever.
The outspoken TV star, who shares three children with Mark, was blindsided when rumours spread last year that she and her husband were 'on the rocks'.
Rumours spread after Linda jetted off on holiday to Spain without her other half, but the Loose Women star has now dubbed the claims as 'rubbish'.
"That’s a load of rubbish. We’re still living together. We both love our kids more than anything else in the world, obviously you have a few hiccups in every marriage," Linda shared.

In recent years, Linda has been no stranger to feud rumours.
Most notably, the TV star has heard time and time again in the headlines that she is involved in a 'bitter row' with her Birds of a Feather co-star Pauline Quirke – a friend who she has known since early childhood.

Linda admitted that she has no idea where the false rumours have come from and explained that every time someone asks if she and Pauline are no longer friends, it upsets her deeply.
"We’re best mates. We’ve been best mates since we were 10 years old," Linda insisted. "It really upsets me every time I meet someone who goes, ‘Oh you fell out’. No, we haven’t fallen out. I see her all the time, she comes to my house, I go to her house."
Linda said Pauline has decided to leave acting behind (ITV)Although Linda has continuously denied the rumours, Pauline was nowhere to be seen in the Birds of a Feather special back in 2020, leaving fans convinced that she and Linda had ended their friendship of fifty years.
However, Linda previously told The Mirror that Pauline simply wanted out of her acting career, and that was the sole reason why she didn't join in on the TV special.
She explained: "She just doesn't want to act anymore. She's had enough – it's long hours.
"She's concentrating on her drama academies. She's very hands-on, going to classes and all that,” Linda added.
