Eamonn Holmes’ girlfriend Katie Alexander has shared pH๏τos of the couple for the first time, after striking up a romance with the broadcaster following his split from Ruth Langsford.

Katie, who works as a marriage counsellor, posted a reel on Instagram of a recent day out with GB News star Eamonn, who announced his split from wife Ruth Langsford a year ago.

Set to the The Levellers’ song What a Beautiful Day, Katie, 43, captioned the cosy snaps: ‘Lovely weather…. Lovely company ☀️’

The pH๏τos showed the blonde dressed in a polka dot dress as she posed in the sunshine with her dog Dottie and Eamonn, 65, who was using a wheelchair. 

The relationship milestone comes amid Eamonn’s latest health woes, with the TV star falling off his chair live on air on Wednesday’s GB News. 

As the camera focused on commentator Charlie Rowley at 6:15am, a crash could be heard off screen and the broadcaster’s co-host Ellie Costello exclaimed ‘oh my gosh.’

Eamonn was then heard saying: ‘I’m fine, fine, fine, carry on, carry on.’

A stunned Charlie tried to continue but the early morning news programme cut to adverts seconds later.

After an extended six minute break, Eamonn returned to screens, joking: ‘I’m still alive’ as he blamed the ‘wonky’ wheels on his chair.   

‘It was a shock for me because I had a fall two weeks ago in my bathroom that hospitalised me and that hit me right in the back,’ he said. ‘And that hit me again right in the back. It’s eally really sore, really sore’

Eamonn was rushed to hospital earlier this month after taking a fall at home. 

Alongside a picture taken in the ambulance he explained on Instagram: ‘An unexpected journey this morning… bit of a fall on the bathroom floor. Gosh it hurts. Thank you Ambulance crew.’ 

The broadcaster has been plagued with health woes following surgery on his back in 2022 and has been relying on the aid of a walking frame or wheelchair since. 

In March this year, he revealed his problems are ongoing, admitting on Instagram: ‘Even when The Sun shines there’s pain. Sometimes I feel I’ll never beat this disc immobility but I’m determined to have a life…

‘So pray for me, help me or get out of the way Social Media haters.’

Marriage counsellor Katie had been helping Eamonn through both his health problems and his split from Ruth, but her friends say they only grew close once the marriage was over.   

In a clear sign that she too is moving on, Ruth finally ditched her wedding ring this week, almost a year after announcing the split.

The TV couple shocked fans with their joint statement on May 25 2024 confirming the end of their 14 year marriage.

But since then, Ruth has resolutely kept her wedding and engagement rings on, even once declaring to a fan that she wouldn’t remove them ‘because I am still married.’

On Monday’s episode of her ITV show Loose Women though, Ruth revealed the rings were off.

Eamonn’s new relationship appears to have hit a stumbling block as The Mail On Sunday has revealed that Katie is refusing to move in with Eamonn, who is 22 years her senior.

The relationship milestone comes amid Eamonn’s latest health woes, with the TV star falling off his chair live on air on Wednesday’s GB News.

She has decided to remain in her native Yorkshire, where she co-parents her two teenage children with her ex-husband. 

It means she won’t be setting up home with GB News presenter Eamonn at his penthouse flat in Kingston, south-west London, where he settled after moving out of the home he shared with his ex-wife.

A source close to Katie, who also has a 22-year-old son from another relationship, told The Mail on Sunday: ‘There’s no way she will move in with Eamonn in the near future, or for many years.

‘She has her children to consider. Truth be told, they are a little unsettled at her relationship being played out in the media and she doesn’t want to uproot them.

‘They have met Eamonn on several occasions and get on great with him, so things will stay as they are for the time being.

‘Eamonn seems so lonely since splitting with Ruth, so it’s not exactly ideal for him.’

Eamonn and Ruth’s marriage reportedly ended after she made the ‘shock’ discovery that he was ‘sharing intimate chats with another woman’.

The Loose Woman star also reportedly found messages on his laptop, with The Sun reporting that the discovery was a ‘real kick in the teeth’.

As the camera focused on commentator Charlie Rowley at 6:15am, a crash could be heard off screen and the broadcaster’s co-host Ellie Costello exclaimed ‘oh my gosh.’

The publication said: ‘Eamonn thought he was in the house alone while he was chatting on the phone. But Ruth could hear him from elsewhere in the house and was totally horrified. She confronted Eamonn. It was quite a shock – for both of them.

‘Eamonn had no idea Ruth was in the house at the time. It was a huge blow to Ruth, particularly as she had been devoted to caring for Eamonn during his physical health issues. To discover he was sharing intimate chats with another woman was a real kick in the teeth for Ruth.’

A source reported to The Sun that the row over the phone call occurred in April in the pair’s Surrey home, however, just weeks later Ruth was said to have found messages on his laptop.

The discovery was said to have triggered their split announcement, with the heartbreaking discovery said to have been ‘the straw that broke the camel’s back’.

The insider added: ‘After the phone call row the marriage limped on for a few weeks until Ruth found the laptop messages. It was another awful experience for her and the straw that broke the camel’s back as far as the marriage was concerned.’

A joint statement issued by the pair announcing their split simply read: ‘Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.’

MailOnline have contacted representatives of Ruth and Eamonn for comment.
