Eamonn Holmes surprised fans when it emerged he was in a relationship with a woman 22 years his junior following his split from Ruth Langsford.

But it seems their romance will have to be conducted at a distance, because she is refusing to move in with him.

Katie Alexander, a marriage counsellor, has decided to remain in her native Yorkshire, where she co-parents her two teenage children with her ex-husband. 

It means she won’t be setting up home with GB News presenter Holmes, 65, at his penthouse flat in Kingston, south-west London, where he settled after moving out of the home he shared with his ex-wife.

A source close to Ms Alexander, who also has a 22-year-old son from another relationship, told The Mail on Sunday: ‘There’s no way she will move in with Eamonn in the near future, or for many years.

‘She has her children to consider. Truth be told, they are a little unsettled at her relationship being played out in the media and she doesn’t want to uproot them.

‘They have met Eamonn on several occasions and get on great with him, so things will stay as they are for the time being.

‘Eamonn seems so lonely since splitting with Ruth, so it’s not exactly ideal for him.’
