Ruth Langsford has reportedly been left ‘fighting her instincts’ to run to ex-husband Eamonn Holmes’ bedside following his stroke.
It was reported that 66-year-old Eamonn had suffered a stroke earlier this week. His age-gap girlfriend, 44-year-old Katie Alexander, has been by his hospital bedside. And Eamonn and Ruth’s son Jack is said to have been keeping his mum up to date on his dad’s recovery.
Eamonn himself posted on Instagram and said that he is ‘doing his best to get well soon’. However, sources have claimed that Ruth is struggling with the distance between herself and Eamonn, as she’s been forced to “stand back and do nothing”.

Eamonn Holmes’ stroke statement shared
Earlier this week, reported emerged that Eamonn Holmes had suffered a stroke. At the time, his son Declan – from his first marriage – shared an update. He said: “I just wanted to share a quick message to say we hugely appreciate all the messages, it means a lot to us as a family.
“What happened came as a real shock, but Dad is doing okay given the circumstances and we’re taking it one step at a time. For now, we’re focused on him and keeping things steady around him.
“We’d really value a bit of privacy as we navigate it, and what lies ahead, but thank you again for the support as it means so much to dad and the rest of the family.”
