Kim Woodburn Reveals She Was Sexually Abused by Her Father | Loose Women

[@nanarianne]

Kim is a true survivor…. I can relate to her childhood and feel her sadness, her many disappointments in life. She, deserves the utmost respect in finding a peaceful life, and still able to earn a few bob

[@carolannpacificadam1944]

Just ordered her book and I absolutely love her.

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

As for Kim’s parents they should be ashamed of themselves for being so abusive towards Kim

[@j.c7719]

I remember reading that at her mother’s funeral Kim still attended out of respect and her mother had mentioned all of her siblings in her eulogy but deliberately left Kim out, she was a monster.

[@prettyhollypolly7553]

I don't know if it's just me, but the women interviewing Kim came across as patronising.

[@rainbowlady1532]

Agree, and normally I like Nadia (annoying preachy feminist attitude/views aside, she's actually quite bubbly and charismatic), Linda Robson, Janet Street Porter (in small doses, when she's not being a hypocrite she's quite a laugh) and Andrea McClean. But there's something so false behind thier "compassion". Glad I'm not alone in thinking as such. It feels more like the treatment from the panel is prying than reassuring.

[@nato101996]

The way she acted and was treated in this interview is such a contrast to how she was treated the following year. Even the fact Linda and Janet were in both interviews and the whole tone of the 2018 one was just so nasty. Those Nolan sisters were cruel. Love Kim so much and she’s beyond brave for sharing her story.

[@CharpyTheHedgehog]

This has made me cry. Very sad to hear this. Glad that Kim is now doing well and happy.

[@stratfordbaby]

WOW. That's such a sad story about the miscarriage. And at 6 months! So horrible. Kim is a FIGHTER AND A SURVIVOR. She doesn't deserve all the hate she gets. People need to shut up and listen for a change instead of attacking first.

[@IndigoAngel1448]

But she would do herself a lot more favours if she didn't act so entitled and constantly try to justify herself.

[@cheshirecat1212]

‘Nicola didn’t know your circumstances’ Yeah, so she shouldn’t have said that to Kim in the first place. It’s not that complicated.

[@LightLife4]

I've seen some of the clips of their feuding on CBB, and Nicola intentionally pushes Kim's buttons. After one of their arguments, she (Nicola) has a grin on her face.

[@IndigoAngel1448]

​ @LightLife4 actually makes me laugh how everybody here is so quick to find the smallest reasons to blame the victims like Nicola but say nothing about the obvious abuse Kim gave everybody on a daily...

[@LightLife4]

@IndigoAngel1448 what abuse? Kim noticed how the other housemates behaved and called them out on it. On one occasion, she criticised one over their behaviour, and they immediately drew rank. It was like watching a gang of school bullies gang up against one person

[@LightLife4]

@@IndigoAngel1448 you call it that, I call it as her calling others out on their behaviour and attitude

[@LightLife4]

@IndigoAngel1448 you may call it that. I call it as her calling others out on their behaviour and attitude

[@EWAMILENAP]

The ladies on the panel were very condescending: "Nicola didn't know your circumstances..." Maybe the former cleaner is looked down on by the pathetic TV presenter...

[@rainbowlady1532]

Wish Janet would let Kim answer!

[@teralmiles]

Janet doesn’t like anyone to have their say.

[@rainbowlady1532]

True that

[@romeomarks8344]

I like Kim she’s a strong woman and what she went true omg

[@hannahwillmott7398]

That heartbreaking what kim have to go through from her younger life

[@LightLife4]

I've said it before and i'll say it again; regardless of what you think of her Kim would make a great Loose Woman. She's upfront, says it like it is and doesn't mince her words

[@cailtegreen7764]

Well said and I agree❤

[@nerd55120]

Kim's little toe is more real than any host ever on this panel. They try to set her up (Andrea) but its so obvious she's the only one with nothing to lose. And so just speaks the truth. Go Kim ❤

[@minixx1234]

Gaslighting show ,cancel it. Causes mental health problems

[@IndigoAngel1448]

That's a bit dramatic sweetheart

[@BossShirley]

For a show that’s supposed to be supportive and uplifting for women, the panelists/interviews do tend to be quite vile sometimes, putting other women down

[@Seventeen_Seconds]

People always say "be nice because you never know what people are going through" which is very true. But realistically our world will never be like that because people like to be cruel

[@IndigoAngel1448]

Yeah and some like to be cruel more than others.

[@Emmalittlepengelly1690]

Janet was probing too much here on such sentive and traumatic memories live on tv. Typical of her.

[@CarrotVirus]

Yep!! All of them are fishing for a big scoop. No empathy at all.

[@river8760]

Definitely. Like read the room, lady. Poor Kim.

[@Rachael_89]

oh my! what a heart breaking story. My heart really does go out to her. She's been through so much.

[@jackhughes7637]

This show needs cancelling. Absolutely the lowest of low, these women.

[@amandakohn2246]

I am so upset by Kim's story. Abuse scars forever. For some you become the uncomfortable truth in a family and you get blamed moving forward. This is a person who has never really been heard.

[@HorrorGirlNat]

Kim opens up about her pain and the panel still defend the true bully that was in the CBB house.

[@bigb853]

Look at Phil...took years but karma will come

[@IndigoAngel1448]

You mean Kim ?

[@IndigoAngel1448]

Her childhood experiences were obviously very traumatic for her and I sympathise with her because that's clearly why she's a narcissist.

[@BellaMae-wg9ef]

Definitely agree!

[@louisbates673]

I dunno if you can "diagnose" someone you've never met as a "narcissist". Are you a psychiatrist?

[@MorticiasTwin07]

Poor Kim my heart breaks for her. I've read her book which is a very good book.

[@99fulham99]

Kim should be sent to the front in Ukraine - Putin's troops would soon retreat

I’d love to see you there ya goat

[@CourtneyPielok]

I've always liked Kim tbh. I had no idea this happened to her poor woman =[

[@nicolapicola4502]

Poor Kim. She's hard as nails because she's had to be to survive, but the coping skills she developed as a kid are no longer working for her as an adult. She's got a hair trigger temper, takes offence at the drop of a hat. It's incredibly sad. She's definitely a naturally tenderhearted person but she's classically traumatised. Desperately needs a deep healing from the Lord Jesus 😢

[@daisybuttercup6801]

The Lord Jesus should have prevented the terrible things that happened to her , shame on him.😊

Nicola was out of line what she said

[@LightLife4]

Nicola and half of the housemates were basically the playground bullies who just saw Kim as an easy target. When she challenged them they couldn't take it

[@cathal1983]

Exactly what Kim said, Nicolas didn't know her, doesn't matter if she had or hadn't read the book, you shouldn't say that to any woman, as you don't know what they've been through

[@louloubrow2171]

She didnt start it FACT

[@bigb853]

Love Kim💖💖She deserves a happy and peaceful life now ✨✨🧿🧿

[@tarny11]

Kim says all that. She can't control her anger and hasn't dealt with her issues. She uses all that in a argument that she shouldn't

[@GoddessAthena_here]

We can get over everything

[@teresamaskell6863]

I can feel sorry for Kim she had bad childhood I know what it like to have parents who do care our father abused us my brother and sister hit us with stick you never get over your abuse.

[@jessic178]

Loose women please ask her back on with her story if she would want to ❤❤❤

[@nasimajasat1093]

Instrad of talking about her passion for cleaning and her journey leading upto it...tgey just focusing on the negative part of her life...its like they were counselling her.....all psychological......as if their childhood s were perfect.....

[@awesometruth6]

She's willing to talk openly and honestly about her experiences but also acknowledges that she isn't the only one. Very tough, intelligent woman. God bless you Kim

[@PatriciaJohnston-ib4qn]

I am so very sad Kim to hear what you have gone through love. I lost a baby I truly feel your pain. Good you have got a good guy.god bless you sorry for thinking you were so tough. I was totally alone,only for my beautiful little six year old son.who looked after me,better than a adult.

[@dannipuckeridge6847]

I love Kim she says it how it is and won’t put up with no ones 💩

[@martinandpatabbott8350]

Kim always looks for trouble! Her past has affected her definitely.

[@rainbowlady1532]

True, i admire Kim Woodburn, but I won't lie sometimes she can flare up at the drop of a hat over petty issues. I know and understand that she's had a very tough start in life - thanks to her cruel, cold parents, utter monsters. I hate them yet I've thankfully never met them, but they sound vile - and Kim mostly carries herself very well. But can be opinionated at times such as towards Sabrina Washington in I'm A Celeb and to Kate (forgotten her surname) a comedienne when they were on This Morning and discussing thier views about whether or not terms such as "love," "dear", "sweetheart", etc are either endearing or patronising. Regarding the latter, Kim did put words in Kate's mouth/twist Kate's words which was unfair of Kim. Nonetheless, I praise Kim for her strength & honesty. Whether you like or dislike Kim (I mean this respectfully, she's rather like Marmite), she's not a fake person.

[@IndigoAngel1448]

​@@rainbowlady1532 Absolutely agree.

[@TianaThompson90s]

Exactly 💯

[@djlivvy46]

I don't watch reality tv as I believe it is purely designed to bring out the worst in both the participants and the viewers, so I never saw Big Brother. Kim has always been an icon to me since I watched How Clean Is Your House? all those years ago, and that is how I prefer her to remain in my mind. And after learning a little more about her own life, I have even more respect for her.
