Eamonn and Ruth had been married since 2010 and were in a relationship for almost 30 years. They share one son, Jack, who was born in 2002.

The couple also famously presented This Morning together for 15 years, before leaving the morning show in 2021.

Since the announcement was made, Langsford has remained absent from her ITV show Loose Women, where she is a regular host.

A source has claimed that Langsford "will not be back on screen this week" in light of the announcement.

The source told The Sun: "She has decided to extend her break from ITV so will not yet be making a return to the Loose Women panel."
