Prince Harry Screams in Despair as King Charles Transfers His Last Title to Secret Cousin

  King Charles, in all his kingly glory, decides to play a game of royal musical chairs. And who’s left without a seat when the music stops?…

 

King Charles, in all his kingly glory, decides to play a game of royal musical chairs. And who’s left without a seat when the music stops? None other than our favorite Ginger, Prince Harry. Harry’s last shot at a royal comeback just got flushed down the royal loo faster than you can say “makes it!”

Let me introduce you to a new player in this royal soap opera: Charles Armstrong-Jones. No, not that Charles. This Charles is like the store-brand version of our King—same name, way less baggage. He’s King Charles’s first cousin once removed, and let me tell you, this kid’s star is rising faster than Harry’s. At the ripe old age of 25—practically a baby in royal years—Charles Armstrong-Jones is out here collecting titles like Pokémon cards. He’s already a Viscount and is next in line to be the Earl of Snowdon. Meanwhile, Harry’s watching his titles disappear faster than free samples at Costco.

But here’s where it gets really juicy: word on the street is that King Charles is about to bestow yet another title on young Charles Armstrong-Jones. And guess whose title it might be? That’s right—Harry’s last remaining link to royalty might be slipping through his fingers faster than sand in an hourglass. I can just imagine Harry’s face when he hears this news—probably a mix of shock, betrayal, and “oh crap, what have I done?” I mean, can you blame him? He went from being the spare to the heir to being, well, just Harry. Talk about a fall from grace!

But let’s be real for a second. Is anyone really surprised? I mean, Harry’s been burning bridges faster than a pyromaniac at a matchstick factory. He’s aired more royal dirty laundry than a palace maid on laundry day. Did he really think he could trash-talk the family in every interview and still keep his royal perks? Come on, Harry, that’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works.

And let’s not forget the puppet master behind all this drama: Meghan Markle. I can just see her pacing around their Montecito mansion, trying to figure out how to spin this latest setback. “Harry, darling, who needs silly royal titles anyway? We’re California royalty now!” Yeah, good luck with that, Megs. But you know what? Maybe this is the wake-up call Harry needs. Maybe now he’ll realize that actions have consequences. Even when you’re royal, you can’t have your cake and eat it too—especially when that cake is a centuries-old institution with more rules than a bureaucrat’s wet dream.

Now, let’s talk about this Charles Armstrong-Jones kid for a second. He’s like the anti-Harry—he’s kept his head down, stayed out of the spotlight, and just gone about his business. And look where it’s gotten him—collecting titles like they’re going out of style. It’s like he read “How to Be a Royal 101” and aced the test while Harry was too busy planning his next tell-all interview to even show up for class.

But here’s what really gets me: Charles Armstrong-Jones isn’t just some random cousin King Charles pulled out of a hat. He’s Princess Margaret’s grandson—you know, the OG royal rebel who partied hard and lived life on her own terms. It’s like the universe has a sense of humor—Margaret’s grandson is out here living his best royal life while Elizabeth’s grandson is, well, not. And let’s not forget about Charles Armstrong-Jones’s cousins, Arthur and Samuel Chattow. These guys are like the royal family’s best-kept secret. They’re out here serving in the Royal Marines and running pottery studios, living their best lives without all the drama. It’s like they looked at Harry and thought, “Yeah, no thanks. We’ll pass on the royal spotlight.”

But you know what? Maybe Harry could learn a thing or two from these guys. They’ve managed to be royal without making it their entire personality. They’ve found a way to balance duty with personal happiness. It’s like they cracked the code that Harry’s been trying to solve for years.

They’re living their best lives in California!” And to that, I say: are they, though? Let’s be real for a second—Harry and Meghan wanted out of the royal family because they said it was too constraining, too full of rules and expectations. But now, they’re desperately trying to cling to any shred of royal connection they can. It’s like they’ve realized that being royal was their entire brand, and without it, they’re just, well, regular celebrities. And in Hollywood, regular celebrities are a dime a dozen.

the royal family seems to be doing just fine without them. King Charles is out here shuffling titles like a Vegas dealer with a fresh deck of cards. Princess Kate is charming everyone with her photography skills and down-to-earth parenting. Even Prince Andrew—the black sheep of the family—is keeping a lower profile than Harry these days. And when you’re outshining Andrew in the drama department, you know you’ve got problems.

So, what’s next for our favorite royal outcasts? Well, if I were a betting man—and let’s face it, as a critic I kind of am—I’d say we’re in for more drama. Because if there’s one thing Harry and Meghan are good at, it’s stirring up controversy. Will Harry try to make a royal comeback? Will Meghan pen another tell-all book? Will Archie and Lilibet ever get to meet their royal cousins? Only time will tell. But one thing’s for sure—the royal saga is far from over. It’s like the world’s longest-running soap opera, only with better costumes and more castles.

So here’s my advice to all our royal players: to Harry, mate, it’s time to face the music. You made your choices, now you’ve got to live with them. Maybe try taking a page out of your cousin’s book and find a way to be royal without making it your entire identity. To Meghan, honey, Hollywood isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Maybe it’s time to find a new brand that doesn’t rely on your royal connections. To King Charles, keep doing what you’re doing, Your Majesty. You’re playing this game of thrones like a pro. And to Charles Armstrong-Jones and the Chattow brothers—you guys are the real MVPs. Keep showing the world how to be royal without all the drama.

Tom Bower Launches Blistering Critique of Meghan Markle: ‘Everything Is So False, I Have Proof!

Tom Bower, against Meghan Markle. It’s an unapologetic takedown of the Sussex couple and their seemingly contrived public personas. In a recent appearance on ‘Dan Wooten Tonight,’ Tom Bower minced no words as he called out Meghan and Harry for what he perceives as their inauthentic personas.
He highlighted a glaring issue that has long been glossed over—their use of veterans to propel themselves into the spotlight. Bower astutely questioned why they seem to evade the criticism that often accompanies their actions, and what has changed to make this situation so peculiar.

Let’s start with their recent involvement in the Invictus Games. While Meghan and Harry presented a syrupy image of compassion and empathy to the public, Bower suggests that behind the scenes, their actions tell a different story. Meghan’s visits to homeless individuals in Germany, while undoubtedly a PR move, were followed by a sharp contrast—a return to opulent comforts in their Montecito mansion.

It’s the stark dichotomy between their public personas and private realities that raises eyebrows. Bower aptly described it as ‘everything is so confection, everything is so false.’ The carefully curated image of compassion and concern appears to crumble under scrutiny.

What’s truly remarkable is that the royal family seems to have awakened to this charade. They have chosen to distance themselves from Meghan and Harry, recognizing the need to protect their own integrity and reputation. Bower succinctly expressed this sentiment, saying, ‘Finally, the royal family has seen the light and decided to ignore them completely and ostracize them. Don’t give them any help.’

This marks a turning point in the saga of Meghan and Harry—a moment when the facade of glamour and grandeur begins to crack. They are no longer shielded from criticism or held above reproach; instead, they are subject to scrutiny like any other individuals.

Bower’s closing statement carries a powerful message. He hopes that the next time Meghan and Harry land in London, they are required to go through customs and immigration like the rest of us. It’s a call for equality and fairness, a reminder that privilege should not exempt anyone from the rules and norms that govern society.”

Meghan Markle Asking Prince Harry About Perfect Woman Caught on Camera (Watch Video)

Meghan Markle was filmed asking Prince Harry what was on his list of perfect characteristics in a woman, in a clip that caught attention aft…

Meghan Markle was filmed asking Prince Harry what was on his list of perfect characteristics in a woman, in a clip that caught attention after it was posted on TikTok.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex told their Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan about how their relationship started back in 2016. And Meghan let slip that Harry had written down all the characteristics he hoped to find in his perfect woman.

“He had a list apparently of what he was looking for,” Meghan said, “an extensive list.”

“I’m not showing you the list; nice try,” Harry said, adding that “this is the list,” as he gestured at Meghan.

While the documentary was released in December 2022, the clip was posted a day ago on TikTok alongside the message: “Prince Harry and Meghan met 8 years ago this month. They had their first dates at the beginning of July 2016, and they are still going strong.”

The moment, posted to @harry.nd.meghan, was viewed more than 46,000 times and liked over 3,600 times. One reply reads: “The perfect pair you can see he calms her and she calms him. They’re very much in love they don’t care what the media says. They do their thing and they love it.”

The start of the clip shows Meghan discussing how the pair went on a holiday to Botswana in Southern Africa together, a little more than a month after their first date.

“I’m getting on the plane and going to the middle of the bush? What am I doing?” Meghan said in the six-part docuseries. “What if we don’t like each other?

“So I get there. This is the first time I’ve seen him in a month. We’re awkward at first. Do we hug? Do we kiss? And I remember he handed me a chicken sandwich.”

Meghan added, though that, “thankfully, we really liked each other.”

“She’s so comfortable and so relaxed in my company,” Prince Harry added.

The couple’s first date was in July 2016 after Harry spotted her in an Instagram video posted by his friend Violet von Westenholz.

 

In his book, Spare, Harry wrote: “I was sitting around Nott Cott [Nottingham Cottage, a house in the grounds of Kensington Palace in London], scrolling through Instagram. In my feed I saw a video: My friend Violet. And a young woman. 

“They were playing with a new app that put silly filters on your photos. Violet and the woman had dog ears, dog noses, long red dog tongues hanging out. Despite the canine cartoon overlay, I sat up straighter.

“This woman with Violet… my God. I watched the video several times, then forced myself to put down the phone. Then picked it up again, watched the video again,” Harry wrote.

“I’d traveled the world, from top to bottom, literally. I’d hopscotched the continents. I’d met hundreds of thousands of people, I’d crossed paths with a ludicrously large cross-section of the planet’s seven billion residents.

“For thirty-two years I’d watched a conveyor-belt of faces pass by and only a handful ever made me look twice. This woman stopped the conveyor-belt. This woman smashed the conveyor-belt to bits. I’d never seen anyone so beautiful,” Harry added.

Oprah Winfrey to Prince Harry: ‘You’re Trespassing!’ – Shocking Showdown at New Mansion

The idyllic image of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle settling into their Californian life seems to be cracking at the seams. Recent reports suggest a growing rift between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and their neighbor, media mogul Oprah Winfrey. The drama allegedly centers on Harry’s close friend and confidant, Stedman Graham, Oprah’s longtime partner.

Whispers of tension began with a bizarre incident at the Sussexes’ sprawling Montecito mansion. Sources claim Meghan was overheard yelling, “Don’t you dare piss me off, fool,” followed by heated arguments. While the specific cause remains unclear, speculation points towards a disagreement involving Stedman Graham. This wouldn’t be the first time Meghan’s relationship with Harry’s inner circle has raised eyebrows. There have been reports of a strained dynamic with William and Kate, along with a noticeable distance from Harry’s longtime friends.

While Meghan’s supporters might attribute this to her protective nature over her husband, others see a pattern of controlling behavior. Further fueling the fire is the alleged reason behind the supposed Meghan-Stedman clash. Rumors suggest a disagreement over business ventures. Harry, known for his philanthropic endeavors, might be drawn to Stedman’s sharp business acumen. Meghan, however, might have reservations about the kind of ventures that align with their brand. This could explain the outburst, painting a picture of Meghan potentially dictating Harry’s professional and social interactions.

The optics surrounding this situation are particularly damaging for Meghan. Oprah, a longtime friend and vocal supporter of the couple, reaching a point of alleged tension with Meghan doesn’t bode well. It could be seen as Meghan alienating someone who has championed her on the global stage. However, it’s important to acknowledge the lack of concrete evidence. The reported outburst could be a misunderstanding, and business disagreements are a normal part of life.

Still, the situation raises questions about the power dynamics within the Sussex household. There’s also the possibility that Harry, disillusioned with royal life, is now yearning for the camaraderie he shared with his old friends. Meghan, perhaps fearing a return to his wild bachelor days, might be inadvertently pushing him away from his support system.

Ultimately, only the Sussexes know the truth behind the rumors. However, this incident serves as a stark reminder of the challenges faced by couples adapting to a completely new life, especially when one partner comes from a vastly different background. The public will be closely watching how this situation unfolds. Will Harry and Meghan weather this storm and maintain a cordial relationship with Oprah and Stedman, or will this be another casualty in Meghan’s quest to protect her new life and brand? Only time will tell.

Mark Consuelos Blasts Meghan Markle for Interrupting on ‘Live with Kelly and Mark

 It was supposed to be a routine taping of the popular daytime talk show “Live with Kelly and Mark,” but tensions were high as Meg…

It was supposed to be a routine taping of the popular daytime talk show “Live with Kelly and Mark,” but tensions were high as Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, made an unexpected appearance on set. What started as an excited surprise for fans quickly turned into an uncomfortable confrontation between the former actress and co-host Mark Consuelos.

The drama began when Meghan Markle, who had not been scheduled to appear, suddenly walked onto the stage during a commercial break. Audience members watched in stunned silence as the royal family member approached the desk where Consuelos was reviewing notes for the next segment.

“Megan, what are you doing here?” Consuelos said sternly, not even attempting to hide his annoyance. “This is our show. You can’t just barge in unannounced.” Markle, seemingly unfazed by Consuelos’s cold reception, smiled and replied, “I was just in the neighborhood and thought I’d stop by to say hello. Is that a problem?”

The tension in the room was palpable as the co-hosts exchanged terse words. Consuelos made it clear he did not appreciate the unexpected disruption, while Markle maintained a casual, almost defiant tone.

“It is a problem, actually,” Consuelos shot back. “We’re live on air in a matter of minutes, and we have a set schedule to stick to. You can’t just come waltzing in here whenever you feel like it.”

Markle opened her mouth to respond, but before she could, Consuelos raised his hand to silence her. “No, listen. This is my show, co-hosted by my wife Kelly. You don’t get to come in here and start talking over us. That’s not how this works.”

The audience, which had been eagerly awaiting the start of the show, suddenly found themselves witnessing an uncomfortable confrontation in real time. Many shifted uncomfortably in their seats, unsure how to react.

Just then, Kelly Ripa emerged from the wings, seemingly unaware of the tension that had been building. “What’s going on out here?” she asked, looking between Consuelos and Markle with a puzzled expression.

Consuelos quickly filled her in, explaining Markle’s uninvited appearance and his objections to her disrupting their show. Ripa’s brow furrowed as she listened, and when Consuelos finished, she turned to Markle with a serious expression.

“Meghan, I’m sorry, but Mark is right. You can’t just show up unannounced like this. We have a schedule to maintain, and our audience is waiting for the show to start,” Ripa said, her tone firm but not unkind. “I know you’re used to a certain level of privilege, but that doesn’t apply here. This is our studio, our show. We need to ask you to leave.”

Markle’s smile finally faded, and for a moment, she looked taken aback. But then her expression hardened, and she drew herself up to her full height. “I see,” she said coolly. “Well, I’m sorry you feel that way. I was only trying to be friendly and supportive, but if my presence is so unwelcome, then I suppose I have no choice but to go.”

With that, Markle turned on her heel and strode off the set, leaving Consuelos and Ripa to compose themselves before the cameras started rolling again. The audience, which had been buzzing with excitement at the prospect of a surprise royal guest, now sat in stunned silence as the show resumed. Consuelos and Ripa addressed the incident briefly, apologizing to the audience for the disruption and assuring them that everything was under control.

But the unease lingered, and many viewers took to social media to share their thoughts on the confrontation. Some praised Consuelos and Ripa for standing their ground and maintaining professionalism in the face of Markle’s unexpected appearance. Others, however, criticized the co-hosts for being too harsh and suggested that they should have been more welcoming to the royal guest.

Regardless of where one stood on the issue, it was clear that the incident had left a lasting impression. The “Live with Kelly and Mark” team would no doubt be dealing with the fallout for some time to come.

 

Prince Harry and Prince William, who inherited a significant portion of their mother Princess Diana’s belongings after her tragic death, will not inherit her childhood home, Althorp Estate. Instead, this historic property will pass to their cousin, Louis Spencer, Viscount Althorp. This surprising inheritance decision is rooted in the British aristocratic system of primogeniture, which favors the eldest male heir.

Princess Diana tragically died in a car crash in Paris on August 31, 1997, a calamity that also claimed the lives of her driver Henry Paul and her boyfriend Dodi Fayed. The devastating event left Diana’s sons, Harry and William, inheriting the bulk of a £13 million fortune and a significant collection of jewelry. However, Althorp Estate, which has been in the Spencer family since 1508, follows the tradition of passing down to the oldest male heir. Louis Spencer, the son of Diana’s brother, Earl Charles Spencer, is the designated heir to Althorp despite having three older sisters. The estate will bypass them due to the rules of primogeniture.

The estate, where Diana spent much of her childhood and where she was laid to rest, will eventually become Louis’s responsibility. The sprawling property opens its doors to visitors each summer, offering a glimpse into the late princess’s early life. Louis Spencer, who studied at the University of Edinburgh and trained at a drama school in Chiswick, London, is currently building his career as an actor, represented by Tavistock Wood talent agency. Louis prefers to maintain a low profile; a source close to the family told The Telegraph, “He’s super private and gets on quietly with his things. He’s a very talented actor, and I think he’ll be a brilliant one. You’d like him—he’s very low-key, genuine, decent, kind, tall, and handsome.”

Kitty Spencer, Louis’s older sister, has publicly supported the tradition of primogeniture despite its implications for her inheritance. Speaking to Town and Country magazine, she acknowledged the evolving attitudes towards such traditions but expressed confidence in her brother’s ability to manage the estate. “We’ve grown up understanding that it’s Louis to inherit, and Louis will do an incredible job,” she said.

This inheritance tradition has left Harry and William without a claim to Althorp despite their royal status. The estate’s historical significance, both as Diana’s childhood home and final resting place, adds to its emotional value. However, the Spencers’ adherence to primogeniture underscores the enduring customs within British aristocracy, where lineage and gender often dictate the passage of property and titles.

Louis’s involvement with the estate has already begun as he attends trustee meetings in preparation for his future responsibilities. His low-key approach contrasts with the high-profile public lives of his royal cousins. In 2019, Tatler magazine named him one of the top eligible bachelors following his appearance at the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, which brought him into the public eye.

Thanks fans for their support

Eamonn addressed his split with Ruth on the Monday after news of their divorce was revealed on the last weekend in May. Hosting the GB News breakfast show with Isabel Webster, the star, still wearing his wedding ring, said: “Before we move on, I would just like to thank people for their support for Ruth and I over the past few days. Your support, from both of us, is very much appreciated.”

Following his announcement, Eamonn’s legion of loyal fans flocked to Twitter, telling the dad-of-four how saddened they were by the news, with many saying they thought the former couple had an ‘unbreakable bond’.

‘Blindsided’ by split

Despite being back at work the day after the breakup was announced, Eamonn was reportedly left “blindsided” and “furious” by his estranged wife’s announcement of their split back in May. As the television presenter thanked his fans for their support on GB News following the revelation they had separated after 27 years, friends of the star said he was “angry and baffled” at her Ruth’s decision to share the news.

A friend of Eamonn’s told the Mail: “Eamonn was left blindsided, it was awful for him. He literally found out about it a very short time before it was published – you’re talking hours.”

‘Not ok’

Eamonn opened up for the first time about the effects of his divorce from Ruth at the TRIC Awards in June, telling the Mirror: “I’m not OK. This is not a good time at all.”

The star spoke to us at the awards, where he was nominated in the Best News Presenter category, as well as Best News Broadcast. It was the first time solo for Eamonn at the star-studded event, with Ruth giving the bash a notably wide berth.

Living on ‘borrowed time’

Struggling with chronic back pain, which saw him require a high-tech wheelchair at the ceremony, Eamonn also admitted feeling as if he is on “borrowed time”, as his father died at the age of 65 from a fatal heart attack in 1991.

The presenter has battled multiple heath issues over the past few years, before his split with Ruth was announced. Speaking to the Mirror, he admitted he had considered pulling out of attending as he had been in so much pain. However, his new high tech equipment allowed him to be more comfortable. Admitting he was in two minds about attending the event, he said: “I wasn’t going to come, but I’ve got this new chair with all these gadgets.”

Hopes they can still be friends

Veteran TV host Eamonn, is reportedly leaning on several female friends in the wake of his split from Ruth. The Northern Irishman said he hoped to remain on good terms with his soon-to-be ex-spouse, despite the Loose Women star staying silent, up until now, about their relationship.

According to Best magazine, when asked about Ruth, Eamonn responded, “It’s too early to say, but I hope we can still be friends.” Reflecting on the end of the couple’s 14-year marriage, the star also spoke about his future with his estranged wife at the TRIC Awards, repeating: “It’s too early to say, but I hope we can still be friends.”

Miriam Margolyes shocks the Loose Women panel as she swears live on the show

‘Am I allowed to say that?” the actor asked

Miriam Margolyes caused nervous laughter in the Loose Women studio after she unexpectedly swore live on the ITV programme.

The Harry Potter actor, 83, had been discussing her new memoir, Oh Miriam, on the daytime talkshow, hosted by Kaye Adams, Denise Welch, Olivia Attwood-Dack and Nadie Sawalha, when the profanity slipped out.

Margolyes is known for speaking her mind during live broadcasts and previously caused controversy when she claimed Harry Potter fans need to “grow up” live on ABC News Australia.

Speaking to Kaye Adams on Loose Women on Thursday morning (4 July), Margolyes revealed she had chosen to write a book at this point of her career “because they paid me”.

When Adams asked Margolyes: “Can they pay you to do anything, Miriam?” the star responded with an inappropriate phrase that was immediately bleeped out.

After Welch clasped her hands to her mouth in shock and Adams shook her head in disbelief, Margolyes asked: “Am I allowed to say that? Oh dear.”

Rephrasing her response to where she draws the line when it comes to earning money, the actor explained: “I wouldn’t eat faeces.”

The on-air blunder comes after Margolyes recently revealed she makes a significant amount of money on the personalised video service Cameo.

The Harry Potter actor said she charges £100 to send a video message to one of her fans and has been inundated with requests.

“Sometimes, I’m asked to cheer up someone with terminal cancer. This is not easy,” she said. “Sometimes I’m asked to propose to somebody on behalf of the person who’s paying me.”

“I enjoy it. I do as many as I can. And I charge £100 and I’ve made an enormous amount of money. I’m not ashamed of that. I think that’s perfectly fair.”

The actor, who claims she is a socialist, added: “Don’t think I don’t like money – I love money. I love it and I want as much of it as I can get.”

When asked if she needed to continue her lucrative Cameo career, Margolyes said: “Of course. I want it all.”

Ruth Langsford in Loose Women ‘axe’ panic as ITV descends into chao

Martin Lewis warns households of biggest ‘financial sin’ that could cost them dearly

Martin Lewis’ BBC podcast tackled some household debates between couples regarding their finances this week, from whose credit card to pay off first to being pulled in as a “Judge Judy” mediating feuds over luxury spending. However, one common query saw the Money Saving Expert uncovering one of the biggest “financial sins” in his opinion.

While the MSE founder was dishing out advice for those facing some financial “marital disharmony”, Gethin Jones, the guest on this week’s Martin Lewis Podcast, started to pick up on a “theme”. He explained that a few couples seemed to be disagreeing over if they should “be loyal to certain banks or utility providers”.

Without hesitation, the finance expert urged households to disregard their loyalty whenever possible, warning: “Financial loyalty tends to be a financial sin.”

Martin urged people to instead be clinical in looking at the products rather than who is offering them as a single company will rarely be the best option across multiple product offerings. Explaining how he managed his finances with this in mind, he shared: “ I personally always focus on the product and not the provider.

“I look at the product, I don’t really care who it’s with, and I go with the product that’s best rather than going with the same bank or organisation. What you want to do is have the best buys in all different product categories. They often do not reward existing customers, existing customers get worse deals,” he claimed.

With a bit of optimism, Martin admitted that certain sectors are “moving a little bit” away from this structure but claimed the general outlook at the moment is: “Loyalty tends not to pay,” and emphasised that it’s “best to go around and find which product is best”.

Ruth, 64, stepped away from her role as anchor on ITV’s Loose Women – and hasn’t been seen on the show since April.

But now she’s ready to return – but has made it clear she will not be discussing her separation on the programme.

Ruth is due back on our screens tomorrow.

A friend of Ruth told The Mirror: “It has been a tough few weeks but now she feels it is time for her to get back to Loose Women.

“It is a job she loves doing and even though the split has been very tough, life must go on.

“Just don’t expect any big news or revelations about the divorce, she wants to keep that private.”

Ruth will be joined on the panel by Coleen Nolan, Brenda Edwards and Janet Street-Porter.

Earlier this month Ruth treated herself to a trip down to the salon.

The TV star headed to the salon amid reports that the GB News anchor is growing close to a mystery woman.

Keen for a fresh start and look, Ruth had some hair extensions put in and showed the look off on Instagram.

The Sun previously told how Eamonn has grown close to relationship counsellor Katie in the wake of his split.

The pair have grown close since they met on X/Twitter in 2015.

Ruth and Eamonn Relationship Timeline

1997-2002 – To be respectful to Gabrielle, the couple kept their relationship out of the limelight. Ruth told Daily Mail: “I thought it spoke volumes about the sort of man he was, the sort of father he was and the integrity he had. It made me love him more, not less.”
