Ruth Langsford Expresses Gratitude While Reflecting on Life Without Eamonn Holmes This Christmas
Ruth Langsford is preparing for her second Christmas without her ex-husband, Eamonn Holmes. As the festive season approaches, Langsford is committed to preserving family traditions while cherishing memories of the past.
Reflecting on Gratitude and Family Traditions
In a recent interview with Woman magazine, Ruth expressed her gratitude for the changes in her life after her separation from Eamonn, which was announced in May 2024 after a 14-year marriage. The couple shares a son, Jack, who is now 23 years old. Despite the personal shifts, Ruth aims to keep the Christmas spirit alive for her family.
Maintaining the Christmas Spirit
- Langsford enjoys setting up stockings.
- She loves decorating her home extensively.
- Festive games are a cherished family tradition.
However, she noted that she particularly misses her father, Dennis, who passed away ten years ago after a battle with dementia. Ruth commented on the importance of looking to the future while valuing the heartwarming traditions that keep her family together during the holiday season.
A New Chapter in Life
Ruth is focused on embracing new opportunities in her career. Since parting ways with Eamonn, she has continued to make appearances on television, notably on shopping channel QVC and as a panellist on “Loose Women.” She expressed her newfound happiness, stating, “I am very grateful” for the positive changes in her life.
Prospects for a TV Comeback
Langsford hinted at a potential return to “This Morning,” especially if she could host with her “TV son” Rylan Clark. She mentioned their strong bond, noting, “If they’d have me, they only have to ask.”
Valuing Time with Family
Ruth also reflected on her mother’s situation. Joan, Ruth’s 94-year-old mother, lives in a care home nearby. Ruth manages all her mother’s affairs, including medical appointments, and values every moment spent together. She emphasized, “Every year with her is a privilege.” This Christmas, she plans to cook for her family, cherishing the opportunity to create lasting memories.
Life After the Split
While Ruth Langsford is currently single, her former husband Eamonn is reportedly in a new relationship. Recently, during a discussion on “Loose Women,” Ruth humorously commented on the perception of single life and its potential benefits.
Upcoming Television Appearances
This week, Ruth is set to appear on “Richard Osman’s House of Games,” competing against notable personalities. Her recent social media posts reveal her excitement about participating and the great accommodations she received while filming.
As Ruth Langsford embraces life without Eamonn Holmes this Christmas, she remains focused on gratitude, family traditions, and exploring new beginnings.
