Eamonn Holmes reunited with his former nemesis Anthea Turner for a sweet snap posted to Instagram on Thursday after the pair squashed their 10-year feud.

The pair’s relationship famously nosedived while they hosted GMTV in the 1990s, culminating in Eamonn issuing bosses with an ultimatum which preceded Anthea’s departure from the show.

They eventually made up in 2005 and even appeared on This Morning together in 2018 with the presenter’s ex Ruth Langsford.

And in a wholesome photo on social media, the duo looked like the best of pals as they grinned for the camera, with Eamonn putting a hand over his former colleague’s shoulder.

Anthea, 64, put on a colourful display in a blouse sporting a white, blue and gold pattern, completing her look with a pair of gold earrings.

Her former co-host, 65, meanwhile, looked dashing in a navy blue suit over a white shirt, adding a royal blue floral tie with navy diagonal stripes and a white pocket square.

Eamonn also wore his gold wedding band despite his split from Ruth last year after 27 years together.

The former This Morning presenter captioned the post: ‘We’re the same age @antheaturner and I and have had careers of similar length but my paper round must have been harder than hers! Top Girl’

Anthea quit GMTV in 1996 and was replaced by Fiona Phillips, but a decade after their fallout, Eamonn, who famously branded her ‘Princess Tippy Toes’ reached out to bury the hatchet.

She still looks back on the saga ruefully and in 2021 she told The Sun: ‘Revenge is a dish best served sweet. Best of all, I’m still here. I thought it was sad. I just wanted to do the job I enjoyed, but unfortunately the roles have to be labelled.

‘I was always asked if I was ambitious and, if I said yes, I was made out to be a ruthless person who would walk over anybody to get where I wanted. It would be said that I was hormonal, or I was stamping my feet.’

She added: ‘And yet ask that question to a man, and if he’s ambitious, we think, “What a guy”. You’d never hear anyone say that about Eamonn or Phillip Schofield. No, they’re just doing their job.’

She went on to say that nobody ‘likes injustice’ or wishes to be ‘misinterpreted’, adding ‘It hurts, it really hurts’.

As she opened up about the past, she remembered reading about herself and thinking she ‘didn’t know that person’.

Back in 2018, Anthea appeared on This Morning with Eamonn and his wife Ruth Langsford and they let bygones be bygones as they addressed their famous feud

And she noted that if it had occurred in the present day, she could have used social media and have had an ‘immediate chance’ to reply to criticism.

At the height of the tension at work, she told how she felt physically sick at the thought of coming to work in the ‘hostile’ environment.

Back in 2018, Anthea appeared on This Morning with Eamonn and Ruth and they let bygones be bygones as they addressed their famous feud.

When talking about if you can be friends with an ex, Eamonn said: ‘Well you are an ex of mine and we’re on good terms, some people think we hate each other.’

Anthea joked: ‘Ruth’s not bothered at all.’

Ruth replied: ‘No, we’re married, we’re properly married’, while Anthea quipped: ‘Yes, but we were on screen husband and wife.’

She continued: ‘There is a fine line between hate and love isn’t there? We were chatting in the break, Eamonn and I are a bit lazy and it’s easier to stay friends’, with Ruth Langsford adding it was ‘nice’ they could be.

Eamonn recently made a sweet marriage remark live on air after his split from ex Ruth.

Shortly after his separation from Ruth in May last year, Eamonn went public with girlfriend Katie Alexander (pictured: the couple in February)

The presenter and the Loose Women panellist, 64, began dating in 1996 but separated last year after 14 years of marriage.

He made a rare comment about married life during a Valentine’s day morning show on GB News with his co-anchor Ellie Costello.

Asked if he remembered his first Valentine, Eamonn replied: ‘I married her.’

‘Aww that’s so nice,’ Ellie said.

Eamonn was referencing his first wife Gabrielle Holmes, who he married in 1985 and with whom he shares three kids, Declan, Rebecca, and Niall.

Shortly after his separation from Ruth in May last year, Eamonn went public with girlfriend Katie Alexander, while Ruth remains publicly single.
