The 'evil' stalker has constantly berated the Loose Women presenter after she announced her marriage split earlier this week.


And she felt compelled to call in cops after the abuser went so far they urged her to 'slit her wrists' and dubbed her a 'w**re pig'.

The online abuse was obviously affecting Denise as she took to her Twitter page at 5am yesterday morning to reveal she hadn't been able to sleep as a result of the vile messages.

She wrote: 'Can’t sleep after strange day! Thank you for your loyalty and love. Makes the haters easier to deal with.'

'So glad all the s**t on Denise Welch has hit the papers. What a scummy bully s**g.

'So disgusting the carry on of Denise Welch on Loose Women and her pride in affairs and drunken behaviour. She’s no role model.

'Michael Madsen, you’re a gentle man sir. You should have won. That Denise is human waste.'
