Eamonn Holmes reportedly sent a reassuring text message to his estranged wife Ruth Langsford after rumours swirled he was engaged to his new “girlfriend”.
Eamonn Holmes reportedly sent Ruth Langsford a secret message after speculation swirled that he was engaged to his rumoured girlfriend, Katie Alexander.
Some thought the GB News presenter, 64, had popped the question to Katie, 42, when she was spotted wearing a diamond ring near his home over the weekend.
Friends of Eamonn have now denied that they are engaged, but claimed the rumoured couple are “in it for the long haul”.
After the proposal story made headlines, Eamonn is said to have reached out to Ruth to reassure her that the claims were false.
A source told MailOnline: “There are other people in this and I know Eamonn had to message Ruth to say there was nothing in the engagement speculation.”
They added that Katie is eager to make the supposed relationship public, but Eamonn wants to keep it private to respect Ruth.
The source said: “Katie just wants to get it over and done with but Eamonn is less keen because he doesn’t want to hurt Ruth’s feelings.”
It is thought that Eamonn has had a friendship with the divorced counsellor for several years, taking her to a safari park, a Manchester United game and a Beyonce concert in the past.
The former This Morning hosts confirmed they were in the process of divorcing in May.
A joint statement from a spokesperson said: “Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.”
It was later claimed that they had been living separate lives for two years.
A source told The Sun: “Eamonn and Ruth’s relationship changed when they left This Morning. They started moving in different directions in their careers and their priorities started to change.
“Eamonn was desperate to return to Belfast, which he thinks of as home, but Ruth would never move. It became a bone of contention.
“As her ITV career continued, Eamonn went down another path and they became ships in the night. For the past two years they had led separate lives, professionally and personally.”
Despite separating, it was said that Ruth had continued to nurse Eamonn through his health battles.
Speaking in June, Eamonn shared his desire to remain on good terms with Ruth. He told The Mirror: “It’s too early to say but I hope we can still be friends.”
Both Eamonn and Ruth have continued to wear their wedding bands.
They married in 2010 after beginning their relationship in 1997. They share one son, Jack, who turned 22 this year.
After the recent rumors of an engagement with his rumored girlfriend, Eamonn Holmes took the time to reach out to his estranged wife, Ruth Langsford, to reassure her that there was no truth to the speculation.
Despite reports circulating about a potential proposal to Katie Alexander, friends close to Eamonn have denied any engagement but confirmed that the relationship between Eamonn and Katie is serious and long-term.
Sources close to the situation revealed that Katie is eager to make their relationship public, but Eamonn is hesitant to do so out of respect for Ruth’s feelings.
It’s been reported that Eamonn and Katie have been friends for several years, enjoying outings to a safari park, a Manchester United game, and even a Beyonce concert together.
The news of the divorce between Eamonn and Ruth was confirmed back in May, with a joint statement explaining that they were in the process of parting ways. Reports suggest that the couple had been leading separate lives for the past two years, with differences in career paths and personal priorities driving them apart.
Despite their separation, Ruth has been a pillar of support for Eamonn during his health struggles.
In a statement made earlier this year, Eamonn expressed his desire to remain on good terms with Ruth, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a friendly relationship.
Both Eamonn and Ruth have been spotted continuing to wear their wedding bands, symbolizing the enduring bond they share.
Their son, Jack, who recently turned 22, is a testament to the long and meaningful relationship Eamonn and Ruth have shared over the years. As they navigate this new chapter in their lives, they are committed to maintaining a sense of friendship and respect for each other. Stay tuned for more updates on this evolving story.
