The panel, including Ruth Langsford and Coleen Nolan, had been speaking about weight loss when cries of “Fathers for justice, no kids no cash” erupted from the audience.

As the chants echoed through the ITV studio, the show was hurriedly taken off air momentarily.

Watch the moment for yourself below:

The official Fathers4Justice Twitter page also shared the moment on their feeds, writing: “Breaking: This is the moment #Fathers4Justice crashed @loosewomen #NoKidsNoCash”

Many viewers took to Twitter to praise the group for making sure their opinions were heard.

Others slammed them for breaching security.

After twenty seconds of being taken off the air, Loose Women soon returned to ITV - and acted as though nothing had happened.

“Thank you guys,” said Ruth Langsford, turning back to Coleen. “So, now that those gentlemen have left us, where were we?”

“Excuse me, can we get back to me?” shrieked Shane Richie’s ex wife.
