EXCLUSIVE: RICHIE BLASTS NOLAN'S HOOKER PLAN

FURIOUS Shane Richie last night blasted ex-wife Coleen Nolan after she promised their son sex with a prostitute if he passes his GCSEs.
Mum-of-three Nolan, 40, revealed on daytime TV she is planning to pay for 16-year-old Shane Jr to go on a seedy sex trip to Amsterdam with her fiance Ray Fensome.
But EastEnders star Richie, 41, said: "I am absolutely disgusted and appalled about what Coleen said on Loose Women. I can only think she said this for shock value and I hope and assume it was said in total jest.
"No responsible parent would even think of such a thing - let alone state it."

He added: "I can assure everyone concerned that having passed his GCSEs - fingers-crossed - Shane Jr will not be going to Amsterdam. I have bigger things planned."
Singer-turned-TV presenter Nolan made the amazing announcement on ITV1's Loose Women. She also gave Fensome - father of her daughter Cira, four - her permission to have a one-night stand with a prostitute.
She told her stunned co-presenters: "As long as he comes back and tells me about it. I'm not joking, I'd love it. There's something a little bit kinky about me."
She said Shane Jr had chosen the trip to Amsterdam, adding: "I said, 'Ray will have to go with you' and he said, 'Well then, Ray might sleep with a prostitute too'.
"I said, 'Oh, that's all right, it's only a prostitute'. I wouldn't throw away the father of my children and all that for the sake of lads being lads."
A friend close to the Irish star said last night: "She is sticking by her comments."
Nolan split from Richie - also dad to her son Jack, 13 - in 1997 after he cheated on her with blonde dancer Claire Louise Tyler.
She caught him whispering "I miss you" to Claire in a taped phone call at home.
And when she found a receipt for an £800 Gucci watch, a gift for his young lover, Richie was forced to admit the affair.
