Ruth Langsford makes major statement on Eamonn Holmes marriage after shock split
Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes stunned fans when they announced they had split up in May, but the Loose Women star has now made a surprising statement about her status
Ruth Langsford has made a huge statement about her marriage to Eamonn Holmes after telling fans they were heading for divorce in May.
The former This Morning stars, both 64, sent shockwaves through the showbiz world when they announced they had called time on their 14-year marriage with reports Ruth was 'sick of being Eamonn's carer'.
The GB News star thanked fans for their support the day after the news broke, but Ruth kept quiet, including during her recent return to Loose Women where she failed to mention the break-up.
However, in her latest post on Instagram, she is still wearing her wedding ring as she told fans she was heading off to a meeting with the QVC shopping channel. Looking very glamorous, sporting a natty white blazer, Breton striped top and black designer sunglasses, she captioned the selfie, which she took in a lift: "Design meetings all afternoon @QVCUK."

It comes after Ruth returned to Loose Women last month after a three-month hiatus, telling the audience: "Welcome to your first Loose Women of the week, it's great to have your company!" Her co-star Coleen Nolan added: "Can I just say, I am so so happy you are back." As the crowd cheered for her return, panellist Janet Street-Porter shouted: "Thank God! Thank God. I was left with her and her," she joked gesturing to Coleen and Brenda Edwards. "I know, I won't do it again Janet. It's very nice to be back with you all," Ruth responded.
So far, Ruth has refrained from speaking about her breakup with Eamonn. However, there were multiple reports about why she split with the seasoned journalist, with some claiming the mum-of-one was tired of looking after the dad-of-four, who has had a double hip operation and struggles to walk.
Eamonn spoke about his ill health at the recent TRIC Awards when he told the Mirror he felt like he was living on "borrowed time". Struggling with chronic back pain, which saw him require a high-tech wheelchair at the ceremony, the star spoke candidly about his health after his father died aged 65 from a fatal heart attack in 1991.
The presenter has battled multiple heath issues over the past few years, before his split with Ruth was announced. Speaking to us, he admitted he had considered pulling out of attending the star-studded bash in London, which he usually goes to with his estranged wife, as he had been in so much pain.
Eamonn is reportedly leaning on several female friends in the wake of his split from Ruth. The Belfast man said he hoped to remain on good terms with his soon-to-be ex-spouse, despite the Loose Women star staying silent about their relationship.
According to Best magazine, when asked about the mother of his youngest son, Jack, he responded, "It's too early to say, but I hope we can still be friends."
