Eamonn Holmes has been showing off his romance with girlfriend Katie Alexander as their pair enjoy a lavish weekend away at a friend’s wedding beaming for pictures together

Eamonn Holmes showed his commitment to girlfriend Katie Alexander as they spent the weekend celebrating a friend’s wedding.

GB News star Eamonn, 64, was invited to TV presenter Hayley Sparkes’ marriage in Essex on Saturday, and brought Katie, 42, along as his plus one. The pair posed for pictures together with Katie appearing blissfully happy as she beamed in the smiley snaps.

A mutual friend of the couple shared the pictures of Katie and Eamonn, as well as snaps of A Place In The Sun star Laura Hamilton as guests enjoyed the nuptials and reception. Eamonn wore a simple blue suit for the event, as Katie dressed up in a strapless black gown with a white corsage applied to the front.

The outing is the latest in a string of luxury dates for Eamonn and Katie as things grow ever more serious between the pair. Eamonn appears to be making the most of his life after his divorce from Ruth Langsford, after recently setting sail on a luxury cruise with Katie – who is said to be calling him her “soulmate.”

A source previously told Heat Magazine: “Katie is telling everyone that she’s totally smitten and in love. They’ve known each other for nine years, so this isn’t a fly-by-night relationship – she’s in it for the long haul.”

The pair are said to already be in the process of finding somewhere to live together, with the source adding: “They’re now looking at places to move in together, as they want a lot more space.”

The romance comes after Eamonn has been plagued by health issues in recent years. He had a double hip replacement in 2016, but has become wheelchair bound after a back surgery. Then in January he went for a tumble and broke his shoulder, but ten months and a major divorce later, the former ITV daytime host looks set on pastures new with Katie, who is a mother to three.

Despite this, someone with knowledge of the situation has said: “While Ruth’s making the most of being single, she’s also ready to dip her toe back into the dating pool – and after some friendly flirting, she’s given pals the go-ahead to set her up on dates.”
