Loose Women’s Nadia Sawalha reveals she drank shots of TEQUILA before Zumba classes ‘to feel like she had a night out’
Panellists then joined in by drinking tequila on air and knocking back bubbly
NADIA Sawalha revealed on Loose Women she indulged in boozy exercise classes in order to feel like she was having a night out following the birth of her children.
The 51-year-old mum-of-two revealed how she found it hard to have a night out because she felt constantly tired after her kids kept her awake as tots.
"A couple of years ago I started going to Zumba class - my older sister teaches Zumba.
"I'd been going for a few weeks and I thought 'this is good. I get a dance, have a laugh with the girls and I'm home by half past eight. I know what I'll start doing before Zumba- I'll start having a little drink!'
"I've had a full night out, and I've exercised! So I started doing shots before I went to Zumba - just two - until my sister caught on and she was like 'have you been drinking?'
"It was just one because I don't get to go out out anymore."
