New Loose Women cast member GK Barry has addressed rumours of “tension” between her and co-star Frankie Bridge.
In August, viewers thought they spotted ‘tension’ between the pair after they appeared on the daytime show together.
On the programme, the pair made a few jokes towards each other. Grace – who is known online as GK Barry – said: “I didn’t get any GSCEs at school but I thought, that’s OK, I’ll be Frankie!”
“That felt like a backhanded compliment!” Frankie then replied.

After the show, some viewers shared their thoughts on Frankie and Grace’s dynamic. One person said on X: “Sorry but Frankie is being so unwelcoming, she’s not hiding the fact she doesn’t like GK Barry.”
Another wrote: “Frankie definitely doesn’t like her.”
However, at the time, a rep for Grace hit back: “Frankie couldn’t have been more welcoming to Grace – they have a great relationship.”
Now, the TikTok star has spoken about her time on Loose Women and her friendship with Saturdays singer Frankie.

Speaking to Closer, Grace said: “There actually was no tension. She was so lovely to me. I’ve just been on again with her and she was absolutely amazing, so no tension.
“And I love The Saturdays. Have a reunion, please, for me!”
Meanwhile, Grace gushed: “I’m having the best time ever. Honestly, I don’t know how I’ve ended up here, but I’m having a great time.”
Elsewhere, recent reports have claimed that we could end up seeing Grace on another ITV show.
A source claimed that the star was in “advance talks” to do I’m A Celebrity.
They told The Sun: “GK is hugely popular with the younger generation and is sharp and quick witted which would translate well to chats around the campfire with other celebs.
