'She’s not as vulnerable' Eamonn Holmes weighs in on why Ruth Langsford stayed at ITV

Fans were left shocked when ITV announced This Morning’s husband and wife duo Eamonn Holmes, 62, and Ruth Langsford, 61, were being replaced by Dermot O’Leary and Alison Hammond on their usual Friday slots. And when he decided to leave the broadcaster for good and join GB News, he admitted Ruth remained because, unlike him, she’s “not as vulnerable” to what TV producers may think.

“He’s always been very entertaining on This Morning – Eamonn can turn his hand to anything.

“He’s a total news junkie, I’m very proud of him.”

She addd: “Yes, no more This Morning together – but it doesn’t mean there aren’t other projects we can do together.”

ITV released a statement confirming Ruth’s future, while also thanking Eamonn for his many years on-screen.
