Amanda Holden, a former colleague of Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes from This Morning, has expressed dismay at their split, which left fans stunned when news broke in May. Ruth, 64, is reportedly embracing the notion of “life after divorce” with anticipation for new beginnings, according to Heat Magazine.
An insider revealed, “On the receipt of her being a free woman, she is going to throw a party. Her best pals have confirmed that she is on the up, while she’s left Eamonn spitting feathers in her wake,”
Meanwhile, on Heart Radio, Amanda Holden shared her thoughts, “I love both of them, I love Ruth, I love Eamonn, I can’t believe this has happened. It’s like so sad for everyone I think.”
Ashley Roberts, her co-host, added, “It’s like mum and dad has broken up to everybody.”

“And they’re both so much fun, especially Ruth,” Amanda added. “She is like the life and soul of a party so if she’s throwing a party, it’s going to be a big one, bless her.”
Since announcing their separation, Ruth has been single, whereas Eamonn, 65, has found companionship with Katie Alexander, 42.
There were murmurs earlier that the couple wanted to expedite their divorce for a swift fresh start. Nevertheless, some relationship experts warn that rushing the process could lead to adverse effects, reports Belfast Live.
Chloé Moreau from ExpertsEnRencontres has underscored that the rapid pace of divorce proceedings should not disregard the emotional and logistical consequences for both individuals involved. “Divorce is not just a legal transition – it’s an emotional one, and rushing through the process may leave unresolved feelings or create additional stress,” she explained.
Moreau also highlighted the necessity for Eamonn and Ruth to make certain that the terms of the settlement are equitable and reflect the requirements of both parties. Moreover, she recommended that the duo tackle the separation with “mutual respect” in order to avoid potential disputes down the line.
