Ruth Langsford’s fans defend her choice to still wear wedding ring



Ruth Langsford‘s fans have rushed her her defence after she was seen still wearing her wedding ring amid her split from her husband Eamonn Holmes. 

The Loose Women presenter and the broadcaster, both 64, announced their plans to divorce in May after 14 years of marriage and 27 years together. 

It was then reported Eamonn had grown close to a younger female friend over the past year who he has been on a ‘string of outings with’, with Ruth’s said to be ‘devastated’ when she discovered ‘messages from another woman’ on his laptop. 

Sharing an update to Instagram on Friday, Ruth cooked a chicken Dhansak curry, with some followers questioning why she was still wearing her ring in the clip. 

They wrote: ‘Why is Ruth wearing her rings if he is all over the papers embarrassing Ruth’ and ‘Why do you still have your wedding ring on?’

Supporting the presenter others replied: ‘Probably because they are hers and she can do as she pleases’; ‘Please keep your opinions to yourself. Please have RESPECT’; ‘Why would you feel embarrassed. Her life not yours’; ‘It’s intrusive and none of your business.’

It was claimed a pal of Ruth’s said she was left ‘devastated’ when she discovered ‘messages from another woman’ to Eamonn. 

A source told The Sun: ‘Ruth was completely taken by surprise when she saw the messages.

‘She had no idea what had been going on between them. She was devastated.’

‘Not only was she very upset but she was also angry.’

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.

MailOnline has contacted Eamonn’s representative. Ruth’s representative declined to comment.

Ruth was reportedly been left ‘upset’ at claims the reason for her split from Eamonn was due to his health issues.

He has suffered various health woes in recent years including crippling back pain and a bout of shingles – with Ruth being by his side looking after him throughout.

And Ruth has been left sad that rumours have circulated that this contributed to their separation, according to The Sun.

Eamonn praised Ruth for her ‘amazing’ support after he suffered a fall down stairs of their home in November 2022.

In 2016, Eamonn underwent a double-hip replacement operation lasting three-and-a-quarter hours after living with acute pain for many years.

Then in 2018 he detailed his battle with shingles and how he was struck with the virus on his son Declan’s wedding day. 

His years of chronic back pain started in spring 2021 – which came completely out of nowhere.

The pain become so severe that it left Eamonn reliant on a walking stick, but soon found out the root cause.  

He eventually discovered it was three slipped discs that affected the movement of his right leg.

In September 2022, Eamonn was forced to step away from his GB news show as he underwent vital back surgery to aid his chronic back pain.  

Then in November 2022 Eamonn endured a horrific accident which saw him fall down a set of stairs at his home in Surrey leading him to break his shoulder weeks after his huge spinal surgery.

Ruth recently said she ‘lives in hope’ that his mobility will improve.

Speaking to Woman’s Weekly, Ruth said: ‘I don’t know how much Eamonn’s mobility will improve. We live in hope.

‘He does the physio, but there might have to be some acceptance that this might never be 100% right. With any care situation – and there are millions of carers in this country – it isn’t always easy. It’s testing but we manage as a family.’

Ruth added: ‘I look at Eamonn, who’s had his health and back problems, and it makes you realise how important your health is.’
