Ruth Langsford has ANOTHER awkward exchange with Holly Willoughby as fans spot ‘tension’

The toe-curling live link between Ruth Langsford and Holly Willoughby didn’t go unnoticed with many on Twitter arguing that there was ‘obvious’ frostiness between the pair

This Morning viewers claim to have clocked further ‘tension’ between Ruth Langsford and Holly Willoughby as they were involved in another rather uncomfortable hand-over.

The regular mid-show preview of Loose Women turned interesting when Ruth said they were talking “awkward exchanges”.

That’s just what many at home were thinking after a bruising couple of weeks.

The apparent uncomfortableness between the pair has been heightened following Phillip Schofield’s exit.

Ruth’s husband and former This Morning star Eamonn Holmes was apparently left furious with now ex presenter Phillip, who he says referred to them as ‘the B team’ when they used to host on Fridays and act as holiday cover.

Eamonn hasn’t held back and spoke in detail about the supposed toxic culture on the morning programme.

Trying to put the remarks to one side, Holly had started off the conversation by saying: “What’s happening on the show today, Ruth?”

Ruth replied: “Can you spare four slices of that cake, Holly?” as the host was digging in to the treat.

She went on: “Coming up on Loose Women, should you ever have a say on who your partner is friends with…?’

“And we’re talking awkward exchanges. Have you ever accidentally said, “I love you”, to the wrong person?’

“Also today, we are asking – would you take love advice from a former cheat?’ another bit of awkward timing after Phillip’s affair came to light last month.

Viewers took to Twitter arguing that there was ‘obvious’ frostiness between Ruth and Holly.

Reacting to the exchange, one tweeted: “Ruth’s absolute disdain for Holly is absolutely brutal”.

Another put: “It’s so uncomfortable to watch but I love it.”

Eamonn lashed out at Phillip over his bombshell interviews, accusing him of “lies” after the disgraced star’s claim he hasn’t made “one mistake” in his 40-year career.

Phillip, 61, said that his TV career was over after admitting to having an affair with a much younger male colleague – but also claimed that he is a “victim of hate” and that he has “lost everything” as a consequence of his lies.

Returning to This Morning, Holly’s monologue captured the headlines following weeks of speculation about her friendship with her former co-star.

“Deep breath – firstly, are you OK? I hope so,” she said in a much-mocked opening.

PA)It feels very strange sitting here without Phil and I imagine you might be feeling a lot like I have – shaken, troubled, let down, worried for the wellbeing of people on all sides of what’s been going on, and full of questions.”You, me and all of us at This Morning gave our love and support to someone who was not telling the truth, who acted in a way that they themselves felt that they had to resign from ITV and step down from a career that they loved. That is a lot to process.

“And it’s equally hard to see the toll that it’s taken on their own mental health. I think what unites us all now is a desire to heal for the health and well-being of everyone. I hope that as we start this new chapter and get back to a place of warmth and magic that this show holds for all of us, we can find strength in each other.

“And from my own heart, can I just say thank you for all of your kind messages and thank you for being here this morning. Myself, Josie, Dermot, Alison and Craig and every single person on this show will continue to work hard every single day to bring you the show that we love.”
