Eamonn Holmes 'takes brutal swipe at ex-wife Ruth Langsford' as he gushes over new love Katie Alexander
Eamonn Holmes reportedly took a brutal 'swipe' at Ruth Langsford while gushing over his new girlfriend Katie Alexander. The TV presenter, 65, found love with Katie, 43, following his divorce from Ruth, 65, in May 2024, when they split after 14 years of marriage and two decades together. Eamonn and Katie have not been shy of showing off their affections for one another and looked very loved-up at GB News star Nana Akua's engagement party earlier this month. While attending the glitzy party, Eamonn seemingly took a swipe at his ex-wife Ruth while discussing his blossoming new relationship, according to Bella Magazine. He described Katie as his 'soulmate', before adding: 'In sickness you find out who is there for you.' A source told The Mirror of his remark: 'It was an insensitive comment from Eamonn, but he's smitten with Katie and does feel like she has been there for him through the hard times. 'That said, it is a kick in the teeth for Ruth because she has been there for him since the beginning.' Eamonn has battled a number of health problems in recent years, including a double hip replacement surgery, slipped discs and ongoing spinal problems. MailOnline has contacted Eamonn's representatives for comment. Eamonn and Katie grew close last summer and began dating soon after, with engagement rumours even swirling in December. Eamonn and Ruth had shocked fans with their joint statement on May 25, 2024, confirming the end of their 14 year marriage. However, the TV presenter continued wearing his wedding ring before he ditched the band last month, while Ruth has also stopped wearing her ring. At first, Ruth had resolutely kept her ring on, even declaring to a fan that she wouldn't remove them 'because I am still married', before officially ditching the band. The exes are now going through divorce, with Ruth thought to be desperate to finalise their split, having sought advice from lawyers to keep their £3.6million six-bedroom home in Surrey. However, Eamonn is reportedly 'dragging his feet' and is 'determined' to get his finances back in order to give Katie the same lavish lifestyle his ex Ruth enjoyed. A source told The Sun: 'Katie's been a rock to Eamonn throughout his ongoing divorce Eamonn's health is always a big concern and after a few tax blows lately, he is more determined than ever to get his finances back in order. 'Eamonn feels hard done by in the divorce. 'He's dragging his feet because Ruth's got the house and they have a lot of other financials still to sort out between them. 'Eamonn knows his mobility issues are a worry, he needs a carer to help him get ready for work and that's expensive.' The insider added that Eamonn 'doesn't want to lose' Katie, and is keen to give her the 'kind of lifestyle she deserves'.

Eamonn Holmes ‘has terrible fallout with his son' after he takes ex Ruth Langsford side in bitter divorce battle
EAMONN Holmes is said to have fallen out with his son Niall after he takes Ruth Langsford side amid the TV star's bitter divorce. Eamonn, 65, began dating Katie Alexander, 43, in mid-2024 following his split from his wife of 14 years, Ruth, 65. 4 4 Ruth is understood to be desperate to finalise her divorce to Eamonn but girlfriend Katie has backed Eamonn for him to fight what is his when working out the terms of their divorce. As the divorce gets increasingly messy, Eamonn and Ruth's kids have been dragged into the middle of it. The former couple share a son together, Jack, 23, while Eamonn has three children from a previous marriage, Declan, 36, Rebecca, 34, and Niall, 32. Eamonn has now reportedly had a "terrible falling out" with Niall over a year ago and the pair haven't spoken since. Niall is said to have sided with his stepmum Ruth over his own dad. "Niall and Eamonn had a massive fall-out, there was a huge row following his split from Ruth. Things were said between them that cannot be unsaid. It must be heartbreaking for Eamonn," a source told the Mail. 'Eamonn accused him of siding with Ruth while Niall hit back about his dad's behaviour. This all happened more than a year ago and they haven't spoken since. Niall adores Ruth." Eamonn's eldest children Declan and Rebecca are still close to their dad but has been "caught in the cross-fire".
