The ITV talk show produced a love survey for viewers so that they could answer questions on some of the most intimate issues in relationships.
Today they revealed that 11% of people believe that the current pandemic has stopped them from finding The One.
But lockdown certainly didn't stop Coleen as she got herself on a dating site and found a man she really liked talking to for six months - but unfortunately it didn't work out.
She told her co-stars: "Lockdown was boring and it was lovely to have someone to chat with and flirt with.

"But now lockdown has ended, you know, it hasn't worked out."
Ruth asked: "But it hasn't put you off?"
She replied: "No Ruth! It hasn't put me off. I am back out there and I'm already speaking to somebody very lovely.
"I'll let you know when things progress..."

The TV host revealed she was in a relationship with someone eight years younger than her back in December - but decided to keep his identity a secret from the public.
She told the Loose Women girls: "I have met someone lovely and it's all going really, really lovely. And that's all I'm saying at this moment. No none of you know him."
A month later Coleen admitted she worried that the age gap could have been an issue in the future.
She told that the couple didn't find the difference to be a problem, but admitted she did worry that she was "too old for him".

"I have moments of worrying I'm a bit too old for him. [But] he's divorced with children, as am I, so we have a lot in common."
To make matters worse, she also confessed being apart during lockdown had been difficult for them as a couple.
Coleen has had a number of relationships in the public eye.
She was previously married to EastEnders star Shane Richie from 1990 to 1999.
