Loose Women star Linda Robson seen for first time since cops raced to home amid fears for her wellbeing
LOOSE Women star Linda Robson is spotted in public for the first time since we told how police raced to her home amid fears for her wellbeing.
Linda, 61, was seen with husband Mark Dunford, 58, after the 999 drama sparked fears for the Birds of a Feather actress in January.
Police and medics were called to her home twice in a week as family and friends grew concerned about the star.
Linda, who has previously spoken about battling anxiety, was said to have struggled over the festive season.
She had kept out of the public eye until being seen with Mark and their children Louis, 27, and Roberta, 22, near her North London home. An onlooker said: “It was good to see Linda out and about.
She’s a familiar face here.
“She did look slightly anxious and didn’t smile a lot and her husband didn’t really leave her side but she seemed fine.” Linda, who was in BBC sitcom Birds of a Feather with Lesley Joseph, stunned Loose Women fans last year by losing 3st in 18 months after quitting booze and sugar.
In January, police confirmed they twice attended her home “following concerns for an occupant”. A source said: “Linda’s behaviour became a bit erratic.

“The family were worried she might hurt herself but she’s taken some time out and seems to be getting back to her best. Her friends and family are hopeful she will be back on TV soon.”
Linda, whose son Louis fought depression after pal Ben Kinsella, 16, died in his arms in 2008, delighted fans by returning to Instagram in February after a month’s absence.
The star, who has a daughter, Lauren, 36, from an earlier relationship, has spoken of work pressures, saying: “Anxiety is a normal part of my job.”
