Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford: ‘It could get nasty’

The pair met in 1997, when Ruth was a little known regional news presenter and Eamonn was anchoring ITV’s flagship breakfast TV show, GMTV.

However, fast-forward to today and the couple’s fortunes appear to have reversed. Ruth is still with ITV, hosting Loose Women regularly and even going back to guest present on This Morning.

Eamonn, however, has cut all ties with the broadcaster. Instead, he’s switched to GB News, suffered what’s reportedly a huge tax bill and ended up hospitalised with ill health on numerous occasions.

Recent reports claimed that friends fear that things will get “nasty” between the pair as it comes to separating their assets. It’s also been reported that Ruth has become “angry” as details emerge after their split.
