Ruth Langsford revealed estranged husband Eamonn Holmes’ ‘little trick’ to ‘get sex’ months before their split

Ruth Langsford revealed Eamonn Holmes’ ‘little trick’ he would do to have sex, months before announcing the breakdown of their marriage. 

The presenter, 64, split from her GB News host husband, also 64, after 14 years of marriage in May and he has since moved on with girlfriend Katie Alexander, 42. 

In a resurfaced clip from Loose Women, Ruth spoke openly about the gesture Eamonn would do that would make her say: ‘Get upstairs now’. 

When talking to the panel about whether a sex ban would work in their relationships, she said: ‘You can have all the compliments and the flowers but then, if Eamonn comes home and has used my car and he goes, “Filled the petrol up and did your water bottle”, I’m like, “Get upstairs right now”.

‘I hate doing it. Literally, I’ll go round with my petrol light on red, the water bottle empty, smeared [windscreen].

‘I’m like, “Oh I can’t stop and do that”, so he’ll do it for me and he knows, he knows. Everyone’s got their little trick.’

In May it emerged Eamonn and Ruth had split after 14 years of marriage and would divorce. 

Cracks had started to appear in their relationship and they had not been photographed together for two years.

The TV star has been dating counsellor Katie Alexander, 42, since his split from Ruth and has been open about his new partner.

 Eamonn proved he was very much enjoying his new romance after the pair jetted off for a luxury holiday together over the summer.

The presenter and his new girlfriend first exchanged flirty messages on social media in 2012 according The Sun.

The TV host and relationship therapist were both married at the time and the messages initially included her then husband George.

Katie’s former partner joked he believed his wife was ‘flirting’ with Eamonn, but with both men sharing a love for Manchester United, quipped: ‘Good job we’re both Red.’

A source told the publication: ‘We knew Eamonn and Katie got together via social media, but no one knew how far back they went.

‘Ruth will be shocked they were in contact 12 years ago. I don’t think she would have known.’

It comes after Ruth spoke candidly about heartbreak amid her divorce with Woman & Home in which she revealed heartbreak was her biggest fear, but not for her, instead fearing her son Jack, 22, would have his heart broken.

When asked what she ‘wants most in life’, Ruth confessed: ‘Happiness. Happiness for my son, Jack.

‘When you have children, you look at them starting out in life and just want everything to be good for them, for them to be happy and to not have their hearts broken. 

‘You can’t guarantee any of that, but that’s what I want most for Jack.’  

Ruth shares Jack with Eamonn and she is also stepmother to his children Declan, 35, Rebecca, 32, and Niall, 30, from his first marriage to ex-wife Gabrielle.
