Loose Women star shares huge career update after quitting the panel and slamming the show | The Sun

A LOOSE Women favourite has revealed a huge new career update after quitting the ITV daytime show.

Saira Khan, 53, enjoyed a five-year stint on Loose Women between 2015 and 2020 before dramatically exiting with immediate effect. 

After her exit, she sensationally claimed telly bosses tried to force her to join paid-for subscriber site OnlyFans.

Since her departure, Saira has been showing off her toned figure in a variety of bikini snaps on Instagram.

Yet now she has taken to her page make-up free and perched on a chair, in a picture-post revealing her latest commercial venture.

In a lengthy caption she detailed her skincare venture as she wrote: "I am finally doing what I love, running my own business, working on it full time, engaging with my customers and just loving every single minute of it.

"Yes it’s hard, relentless, uncertain, unpredictable, challenging and it sucks every penny from you – but I honestly wouldn’t change a thing, because it makes me happy, makes me think, learn and importantly it gives me a purpose.

"I wake up every morning looking forward to putting in another day’s graft to help someone improve their skin. The rewards for me are simple – messages from my customers that give me the confidence and self belief to carry on."

Saira – who showcased images of her using her skin range – added: "The challenges are real, that’s what I love – finding ways to overcome the obstacles – sometimes I put my head in my hands and think 'what the f**k am I actually doing?'

"I’m 53, in a saturated market, with no backers and a young family!

"Then I’ll get a message from a lady whose used my products on her rosacea, which has knocked her confidence for years and finally, because of my products, she feels she can be herself again and not hide or be embarrassed – I’m reminded of why I’m doing this.

"Believe me there are much easier ways to make a living, but as many business owners will tell you – where’s the fun in 'easy?'"

She finished her message with the words: "To all my customers, you have kept me going through Covid and now through these difficult times – you are the wind beneath my wings – thank you, thank you, thank you."

Her fans – and customers – were quick to respond.

One put: "I love your posts, your live clips, your products, your making a big difference to many Saira, keep on doing great things."

Another added: "Keep going – your products are amazing and I definitely see a difference in my skin – love using oils on my skin."

It appears she has turned a corner following her bitter Loose Women exit.

The former The Apprentice runner-up previously claimed she left the programme when producers asked her to join X-rated website OnlyFans.
