Toast 16,062 Posted December 22, 2020 1 hour ago, natquen said: Yes, I remember that (the passing in 2015)... but had never heard of them before (born '78). The Nolans seem to have had a continued media presence/fascination in the UK, despite achieving relatively little. I've already told you - one was an actress, a regular cast member in two popular soaps, and another has made well over a thousand appearances as a presenter or regular panellist on daytime TV shows (not counting reality shows). Relatively trivial "achievements" in the grand scheme of things, but actual careers rather than media whoring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not saying it isn't. That wasn't the point at all. Others however.... In fact I know fack all about kobe bryant and not much more about the nolans, neither interest me in the slightest.

msc 18,397 Posted July 3, 2021 Linda Nolan pulled out of her planned musical tour run last month due to the whole being too ill with terminal cancer thing. Yes, I know everyone on here could have said that was a tad optimistic but noteworthy as the first actual cancellation of something rather than just talking about it on Loose Women imo... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Through the recent Nolan’s cruising around the UK was filmed in June (One episode saw them watch England v Germany at the Euro’s) and she looked fairly well on that. She did take some rest periods when the other sisters appeared but she was said to be taking a nap. I suspect we will notice when the end is soon coming for her as she currently tweets regularly. Also she has recently joined Instagram. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
