The publication previously reported Eamonn had grown close to a younger female friend over the past year – a blonde divorcée and relationship counsellor – who he has been on a ‘string of outings with’, according to The Sun. lime
MailOnline has contacted Eamonn’s representative. Ruth’s representative declined to comment.
On Thursday, Ruth’s friends reportedly insisted that there is ‘no chance’ she will reunite with Eamonn.
She has reportedly been left hurt and is taking an extended break from Loose Women after discovering he is being consoled by woman in her forties amid their split who he’s befriended.
Eamonn and the blonde divorcee reportedly struck up a friendship over the past couple of years and the publication claims the presenter has taken her on a safari park trip, to a Manchester United game and a Beyoncé concert.
This week, a pal of Ruth’s told The Mirror: ‘Ruth was hurt when she learned about Eamonn’s friendship with another woman but she is strong and she will be back soon with a smile on her face, putting her best foot forward, as she always does.
‘She needs a bit of time to regroup after everything that’s gone on, which is understandable, but she plans to return to Loose Women, with renewed vigour, in July.’

The friend also insisted there was ‘no chance whatsoever’ the pair would ever get back together. lime
Reports claim Eamonn and the woman made contact through social media after both being involved with a mental health charity.
A spokesperson for Ruth has said: ‘Ruth had holiday time booked from Loose Women and has extended her leave. She’s looking forward to returning to the show in due course.’
Eamonn and Ruth recently revealed they are headed for divorce after work commitments ‘took their marriage in different directions’.
While Eamonn’s new friendship is not said to be a reason for the marriage breakdown it is understood that Ruth was unaware of her until recently and has decided to take time off work. lime
The souce said: ‘Ruth was obviously aware that her marriage was crumbling, but as details emerge, her upset has turned to anger.
‘Eamonn’s friend is bowled over by being lavished with attention and kindness from him.’
The pair met via Twitter after the woman commented on a post and it sparked a conversation between the pair.
Friends explained that the woman’s counselling skills include coping with ‘feeling sad’ and ‘separation and divorce’ therefore it seems fitting she will be supporting Eamonn at this time of uncertainty.
MailOnline have contacted Eamonn’s representatives for comment.
Friends of Eamonn’s said he was ‘angry and baffled’ at her decision to share the news they were divorcing. .
He learned of her plan just hours before the statement was released via Ruth’s spokesman on Saturday afternoon, saying: ‘Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.’
The announcement was described as a ‘joint statement’.
A friend of Eamonn’s told the Mail: ‘Eamonn was left blindsided, it was awful for him.
‘He literally found out about it a very short time before it was published – you’re talking hours.
‘It all seems a little bizarre given that the statement said they were hoping to keep it amicable.
‘Eamonn wanted no part of it, he couldn’t see any reason why you would release that statement.
‘It was wholly written and signed off by Ruth and her team. In the end he had no power over it whatsoever.’
The Mail also revealed that Eamonn had been confiding how ‘very bad’ things have been with his wife in recent weeks, while his colleagues at GB News said they have been concerned for him of late.
They said that he had been ‘down’ but put it down to him being in pain.
The couple tied the knot in 2010 after dating for 13 years – and say that despite their separation, they are ‘determined to stay friends’.
They are parents to son Jack, 22, while Eamonn also has sons Declan, 35, Niall, 31, and daughter Rebecca, 33, from his previous marriage.
Eamonn and Ruth have reportedly been holding heartbreaking talks over who will get custody of their beloved dog Maggie following their split.
