Ruth Langsford pays sweet tribute to Eamonn Holmes ahead of This Morning return
The presenting duo are presenting This Morning over half-term
Ruth Langsford has praised her husband of ten years Eamonn Holmes ahead of their return to ITV’s This Morning. The couple had previously hosted the hit show for 15 years before new presenting duo Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary took over their Friday morning slot from January 2021. However, despite no longer being regular weekly presenters, Eamonn and Ruth are continuing to host during the holidays. With this week marking half-term across the UK, many fans will no doubt be excited to see them back.
Ahead of their return to our screens this morning, Ruth paid a sweet tribute to Eamonn as they celebrated Valentine’s Day together yesterday.
Taking to Instagram, Ruth shared a clip from an old This Morning episode, where Eamonn gently teases his wife whilst presenting.
