Ruth Langsford Breaks Silence with Four-Word Statement After Eamonn’s New Relationship Surfaces
0Ruth Langsford announced her return to Loose Women on August 19, following a brief break after the announcement of her split from fellow TV presenter Eamonn Holmes, who has recently entered a new relationship.
Ruth shared the news with her fans by posting a backstage picture of the Loose Women logo on social media, accompanied by a simple four-word statement: “Back on the Loose.” She encouraged her followers to tune in as she prepared to rejoin the panel.
This return comes in the wake of a difficult period for Ruth, as Eamonn’s new girlfriend, Katie Alexander, has been thrust into the spotlight. Katie’s ex-husband, George Alexander, recently extended his sympathies to Ruth, acknowledging the emotional toll of her situation.
George, who was married to Katie from 2010 to 2022, expressed understanding and compassion for Ruth’s predicament. In an interview with The Sun, George revealed that the end of his own marriage was heartbreaking, taking him years to recover. “She’s going through what I did after our marriage ended,” he said.
He also shared that while Katie and Eamonn initially connected on social media as friends, he was surprised to learn that they were meeting up “regularly” after his divorce in 2022. George clarified that Katie wasn’t swooning over Eamonn as if he were George Clooney, but she enjoyed their social media interactions.
Ruth has reportedly found herself in an uncomfortable position, especially after rumors of an engagement between Eamonn and Katie surfaced when Katie was seen wearing a ring. Although these rumors were quickly debunked, Ruth was reportedly deeply affected by the speculation and the renewed public focus on her personal life.
According to insiders speaking to OK! Magazine, Ruth has been trying to handle the situation with grace, particularly for the sake of their families and their son, Jack. Despite everything, she continues to wear her wedding ring, not feeling ready to remove it yet. The recent attention to Eamonn’s new relationship has been challenging for Ruth, leaving her feeling embarrassed and upset.
“She would prefer it was done in private, but she understands that there will be interest. It just feels like another blow, and she feels embarrassed about it all,” the insiders shared. As Ruth returns to Loose Women, she hopes to regain a sense of normalcy and focus on her work, even as her personal life remains in the public eye.
