Formerly one of TV’s most admired couples, Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford are now facing the complexities of a divorce.
The pair announced their separation in May with a joint statement that took fans by surprise. It simply stated: “Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.” Sources indicate that the proceedings could become “very, very tricky” as they work through the details of their split.

Since their separation, Eamonn, 64, has been seen with his new partner, 42-year-old relationship counselor Katie Alexander. The couple has been enjoying a luxurious cruise together, which is said to have left Eamonn’s estranged wife, Ruth, “gobsmacked.”
In the meantime, Ruth, also 64, has reportedly hired top divorce attorney Catherine Costley to manage their split. Costley, who has worked alongside the renowned Baroness Shackleton—famous for representing King Charles in his divorce from Princess Diana and Sir Paul McCartney—brings significant legal expertise to the table.
As the divorce between the former This Morning stars moves forward, we take a closer look at their assets and what the future might hold for them.
Ruth and Eamonn’s combined net worth is estimated at approximately £5 million. As of April 2023, Eamonn, who also has a high income, reported holding £306,748 in his limited company, Red White & Green.
Mail Online reports that Ruth, among the highest-paid presenters in the UK, earned close to £2.3 million for the year ending May 2023 through her private company, Hey Ho, which she established in 2013. She also leads Feeling Fabulous, a beauty, fashion, and lifestyle business she set up in 2022.
Following their separation announcement a few months ago, Ruth quickly took their beloved dog, Maggie, for a walk, sharing heartwarming footage from their Sunday stroll. The 14-year-old Collie cross, adopted by the couple in 2011, is treasured and seen as “like a daughter” to both of them. However, Eamonn’s health issues might impact the decision regarding who will ultimately keep Maggie.
In a revealing interview with The Irish Times, Eamonn shared, “I had a house in Belfast until six weeks ago, but I was compelled to sell it due to pressure from the Inland Revenue [HMRC]. It’s a source of great bitterness for me because people assume that high earnings mean you can easily pay. It feels like they’ve taken everything I’ve worked for.”
He added, “It’s not just people like me who are targeted; the whole system is flawed. I felt like a lamb to the slaughter—it was an incredibly stressful and humiliating experience.”
