According to the Mail, a feud between Coleen’s son Shane Jnr and his former partner, Emma Kivell, has stopped the TV personality from being in touch with her first-born granddaughter.
Coleen was a proud grandmother when Shane became a first-time father to little girl, Amelia Rose, in Januray 2016.
She was even present in the hospital room where she first met the tot.
However, in the years that have followed, a devastating family feud has left relations soured.

Sources have told the Mail that difficulties in the strained relationship between parents Shane Jnr and Emma has caused the lack of contact.
Shane Jnr and Emma are believed to not have been in an official relationship when they conceived their daughter.
A friend told the Mail: “At the time Amelia Rose was born, Coleen was on cloud nine. She was so proud her son and she fell in love with the baby, but Shane and Emma aren’t together, and these situations can become quite hard to navigate.”
They added: “Shane promised to support Emma as she set about her journey into motherhood as a single mum along with the support of her own family, but now there is no contact between the little girl and the Nolans.”
Earlier this year, it is reported that Emma and her inner circle were left “disgusted” when Shane Jnr and his new partner, Kimberley Sallis, sent her a script of their ‘pregnancy announcement’ just ten mintues before their Instagram post to confirm the news.
This left Emma unable to tell their daughter that her father was welcoming another sibling before it was posted online due to her being at school.
It has further been reported that one of Emma’s friends even lodged a complaint to ITV about Coleen but they were unable to take any action due to it being “a private matter”.
The Sun has contacted a representative for Coleen Nolan for comment.
Coleen previously discussed Shane becoming a father and the state of his relationship with Emma with the Mirror, telling the publication: “They got together one night and there you go.
“But they’re not compatible in a relationship. Obviously, you wish they were badly in love and could see a future together.

“That’s the best scenario for anyone. But then I thought ‘Oh my God I’m going to be a nanny and was thrilled.’’’
Shane Jnr met Emma when they were both working as Bluecoats at a holiday resort.
Shane is the son of Coleen and her ex-husband, EastEnders actor, Shane Richie.
Following the birth of Amelia Rose, Shane dated Maddie Wadhan for six years before marrying her in June 2022.
His daughter was not present at the ceremony.
The couple later split in December 2023 over accusations that Shane cheated on Maddie.
