Paul Nicholls was quite the heartthrob on Eastenders back in the nineties and the 37-year-old certainly hasn’t lost his touch with the ladies.
The actor appeared on Loose Women to promote his theatre production of Shawshank Redemption and had the panel almost drooling over his still-damn-fine physique.
Paul couldn’t contain his flirty ways, gushing at the attention and confessing: “I’ve been rehearsing with 12 guys in a room for 3 weeks and now I’m surrounded by women!
“I’m not complaining, put it that way!”
The Loose Women praised him for being open about his personal struggle with anxiety, to which he replied: “I know it sounds simple but I've been running in the mornings. It's the only thing."
He then joked: “Yeah, but then I normally go back to bed after.”
When his segment was up, Paul couldn’t resist cuddling up to Stacey Solomon who was applauded for hitting back at trolls who shamed her bikini body.
He told the 26-year-old reality star: “By the way, you’ve got lovely boobs!”
Then added: “I want to stay around you lovely ladies, you’ve all got lovely boobs!”
He gave panellist Sherrie Hewson a cuddle for good measure and she seemed quite overwhelmed!
Despite having a benign throat tumour that left him unable to speak for a couple of months, Paul is fit and well (obviously!) and back on stage from August 31 at the Theatre Royal Windsor.
