TV presenters Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes are getting a divorce, it’s been revealed.

The couple, who were axed from This Morning in 2020, are splitting after 27 years together, with a spokesperson confirming they “are in the process of divorcing”.

Langsford and Holmes wed in 2010 after 13 years together and, according to MailOnline, are “determined to stay friends and keep things amicable”.

The outlet says that their pair are preparing an official statement to share with their fans on social media. It’s been claimed that the relationship breakdown is attributed to work commitments taking their marriage “in different directions”.

In November 2020, the couple were left “furious” after being axed from This Morning in favour of Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary. They had hosted the ITV daytime series’s Friday episode since 2006

Langsford remained with ITV, and regularly features on Loose Women as a host – but former GM:TV host Holmes moved to controversial channel GB News to host a breakfast show.
