We can't believe he did this.

Loose Woman’s Andrea McLean has revealed her ex-husband left the hospital and went home while she was giving birth.

But the reason why was even more surprising – and certainly left her fellow panelists and viewers alike shocked.

She shared the story of when she was in about with her now 15-year-old son Finaly with her fellow Loose Women panelists on Friday.

She told the studio audience how she had her first born child when she was 33 years old, and that the former couple had followed all the recommended preparations throughout her pregnancy.

She said on the show:

“I was 33 when I had Finn.

“I’d been to the fertility classes, he was a much longed for baby, I did everything you’re supposed to do.

“I was 12 days overdue, and was finally induced.

“His dad then went home because he said, ‘ It’s no use us both being tired!'”

The studio audience as in shock as the chat show host shared her ex’s sentiments.

Andrea quipped:

“And that’s why he’s my ex husband!”

The Loose Women panelist was married to Nick Green, who she shares Finlay with, from 2000 to 2005.

She also has a daughter named Amy with her ex-husband Steve Toms, who she was married to from 2009 to 2011.
