Ruth Langsford has finally ditched her wedding ring almost a year after her shock split from husband Eamonn Holmes. The pair, who had been married for 14 years, stunned fans last year when they announced they had called it quits.
And while Eamonn, 65, quickly moved on with his new partner, Katie Alexander, 43, Ruth, 65, seemed to be taking things slower. She previously revealed she was still wearing the band “because I am still married”.
But it appears that now, nearly a year since their May 25, 2024 split announcement, she has decided the time is right the remove the ring. Fans noticed her bare ring finger on Monday’s edition of Loose Women on ITV.

It comes as the presenter has been enjoying quality time with her pals and is said to be realising there is “life after Eamonn Holmes”. It’s claimed she has now vowed to have fun in life a year since the decision.
A source told OK!: “Ruth has had a tough year – but actually, she’s realised a lot of unexpected positives have come out of it. She’s really coming into her own now and is putting the heartache behind her.”

They added: “She’s learnt how to let her hair down and about the power of friendship – you learn who your friends are when you have a year from hell, and she has people around her who love and support her.
“It’s not what she would have wanted, of course it’s not. Divorce wasn’t in her grand life plan. But she’s realising that there’s a brilliant, exciting life after Eamonn. She’s really put the work in on herself, and she is looking amazing after her glow-up! It’s been heartbreaking, but now she’s excited about the future.”

Earlier this month, Eamonn was rushed to hospital after suffering a fall. He took to social media to share the image of him in the back of an emergency vehicle.
The GB News presenter has been open about his health woes in recent years and took to Instagram to share the incident. The image saw Eamonn wearing a pair of black Croc-style shoes with a blanket over his legs as he’s strapped to a gurney inside the emergency vehicle.
He said in the caption of the upload: “An unexpected journey this morning ….. bit of a fall on the bathroom floor. Gosh it hurts . Thank you Ambulance crew.” He also added four clapping emojis to his comment.
Eamonn has previously been seen using a wheelchair or on crutches due to suffering chronic back pain, which was caused by a dislocated pelvis. Eamonn also has two slipped disc and later underwent surgery.
However, he suffered a setback when he fell down the stairs while recovering, which led to a broken shoulder. Eamonn also had a spine and neck procedure in 2023, but revealed he still suffers from pain which sometimes leaves him having sleepless nights.
