Coleen Nolan is preparing to re-home her farm animals as she plans to downsize her six-acre property and move to London to be closer to her boyfriend, Ryan Brockbank. The Loose Women star, 61, who purchased the Staffordshire Moorlands farm in 2024 to fulfill a lifelong dream, announced the decision on a recent episode of the show.
Nolan revealed that her horses have already found new homes, and her goats, ducks, and chickens will remain on the farm. This change comes after her daughter, Ciara, who is engaged and expecting a child, announced plans to move out. Nolan explained that managing the farm alone would be too difficult.
"The dream of it has been everything I wanted it to be but the reality is really hard," Nolan said. She added that meeting Brockbank, 41, provided a new opportunity for a "whole new adventure of life with someone new."
A friend of Nolan's told the Daily Mail that she has been struggling to balance her work, personal life, and the farm. "After a few heart to hearts with her family and boyfriend, she decided to put the farm up for sale," the friend said. "She is besotted with Ryan, she wants it to work, she can't bear not to be with him."
Nolan's relationship with Brockbank follows her previous romance with supermarket logistics manager Michael Jones, which ended in 2021, and her divorce from guitarist Ray Fensome in 2018 after a decade of marriage. She was previously married to actor Shane Richie from 1990 to 1999.
