Ruth Langsford, 64, is said to be “very hurt” following the breakdown of her marriage to Eamonn Holmes, 64. The couple shocked fans earlier this year when they announced their divorce following 14 years of marriage, leading Eamonn to later admit: “This is not a good time at all.”
Now sources close to the Loose Women panellist have revealed that rumours surrounding Eamonn’s new love interest have led Ruth to feel “let down.” Speaking to Bella Magazine, an insider revealed: “Ruth is in absolute shock. That there is another woman he’s turning to is making her wonder how many more there could be. It all feels never-ending.”
They continued: “She’s very hurt by it all – it’s like he’s been living a secret life all this time. She feels let down. Never would she have thought that he could have done this to her and her family. “Everyone is in shock and for Ruth, it’s deeply painful. She’s so good at putting on a brave face and smiling through it all, but inside, friends know she’s struggling. Knowing the man she was married to and shared her life and career with is not the man she thought is going to take a long time to get over.”
The source added: “Ruth has been completely shocked by it all. She doesn’t feel ready, if truth be told, but she has been left reeling after seeing Eamonn get close to a new woman.
“She never thought in a million years there would be talk of either of them moving on after just publicly announcing their split, but her friends have said that if Eamonn is moving on with someone new, then there’s no reason why she shouldn’t as well.”
