Katie Price has labelled Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes as her “favourite couple ever” as she shared her plans to reach out to the pair following their split

Katie Price has voiced her feelings for Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes in light of their recent separation.

Former glamour model Katie, 46, once branded them the former This Morning presenters as her “favourite couple ever.” Speaking on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, she went on to explain her intentions of reaching out to both hosts.

“I really want to reach out to Ruth, and Eamonn, but I’m sure they’ve been getting so many messages that mine would be diluted.” Her affection for the pair didn’t end there, as after she revealed her love for both, her sister and co-podcast host Sophie chimed in: “I like them, they’re always so nice to you as well.”

Not holding back, Katie responded: “They are so genuine on and off [camera]. They are so funny off-camera. They’re normal down-to-earth, not up their a***, they’re just really nice genuine people that I would hang out with and have dinner with. They are so nice.”

The comments from Katie came after Eamonn, age 64, made his TV comeback on his GB News show, Breakfast with Eamonn and Isabel. An hour into his starting show, he mentioned his marriage break up to viewers: “I’d like to thank people for their support for Ruth and I over the last few days as to the news of our separation. Your support for both of us is very much appreciated.”

While Eamonn has made a comeback to work, Ruth has been noticeably missing from this week’s Loose Women episodes, opting to take a “step back” from the programme. She did, however, post a picture of herself at QVC, where she holds another presenting gig.

The beloved duo gained fame co-hosting ITV’s This Morning, with their romance sparking back in 1997 after being set up by a mutual friend. They exchanged vows in 2010 following a relationship spanning more than a decade detail Ruth once shared on Loose Women in 2016, noting they had been together a “long, long time” before deciding to tie the knot. Throughout their 27 years together, they welcomed their son Jack.

Eamonn is also dad to three grown-up children from his previous marriage. Rumours about their marital status have been swirling for some time, with eagle-eyed fans picking up on their reduced social media presence together.

In a joint statement released on Saturday, they confirmed the end of their marriage, saying: “[They] have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.”
