Judi Love once "cried" over the cost of school uniforms for her children. The 42-year-old TV star - who worked in social care before launching a career in stand-up comedy and eventually found wider fame when she became a regular panelist on 'Loose Women' in 2020 - has a 12-year-old son and a 17-year-old daughter from a previous relationship and can resonate with struggling parents trying to deal with the cost of living crisis.

She said: "I remember crying out of worry when my daughter started secondary school because I was unsure we’d be able to afford her school uniform.

I know how parents are feeling about the current cost of living increase not allowing them to clothe or feed their children properly. " The former 'Strictly Come Dancing' contestant went on to reassure parents that financial difficulties are "nothing to be ashamed about" and encouraged fans to donate to charities if they can and urged parents to "reach out" for help if they need it.

Writing in her OK! Magazine column, she added: "It’s tragic, but it’s also nothing to be ashamed about. I remember passing down my daughter’s old shirts to my son when he started school.
