She opened up on her divorce from husband of 14 years Eamonn Holmes for the first time this month, admitting she is ’embracing’ single life.

And Ruth Langsford showed on Sunday she was having plenty of fun after the break-up, hitting the town with good friend Lizzie Cundy for a girls’ night out which she documented on Instagram.

The pair took to London for a luxurious meal at Scott’s Mayfair where they were joined by their pal and hospitality consultant Liz Taylor.

Ruth, 64, cut a chic figure in a black blazer over a black top, wearing her shoulder-length blonde hair loose.

She rose a glᴀss of white wine with TV personality Lizzie, 56, who sported a black top with a gold pattern near the collar.

The Loose Women panellist added a caption to her story reading, ‘GIRLS NIGHT’, along with an animation of wine glᴀsses clinking.

Lizzie also posted pictures to her Instagram of the evening out, penning the caption: ‘Girls night! Party like it’s your birthday. Laughter is the best medicine.’

Ruth had revealed earlier in the evening that her outfit was all from her range at QVC UK, posting a mirror selfie on Instagram showing what she was wearing.

She completed her look with a black snakeskin clutch bag, black slim jeans and black snake effect boots.

The night out comes after the former This Morning host discussed her ‘difficult’ break up after 14 years of marriage to Eamonn, 65, and how she has picked herself up and moved on.

Shortly after their separation, Eamonn went public with his new relationship with dating counsellor Katie Alexander, 43, while Ruth remains publicly single.

Speaking to woman&home about their divorce, Ruth is determined to look ahead and feels an enthusiasm for what’s next, including meeting someone new.

When asked how she is feeling now, Ruth said: ‘I’m alright. Relationship breakdowns are very difficult – marriage, friendship, whatever it is – but you just deal with it and you have to move on. You can either let yourself crumble or you pick yourself up and get on with life. It’s a choice.’

Ruth, who shares son Jack, 22, with Eamonn, added: ‘I’m not delighted my marriage is over but I’ve accepted that my marriage is over, so I am trying to now embrace the fact that I’m single and can make choices that are just about me.’

The former This Morning host, who co-presented the Friday show with her ex-husband Eamonn, went on to discuss navigating a break-up in the public eye.

She said: ‘A break-up of a relationship is hard enough for anybody to deal with. A divorce is very difficult and it’s very painful, but most people don’t have to do it in the public eye, with everybody having an opinion about you and writing things about you and commenting things about you.

‘But that’s the nature of my job. I’ve always had that and if you can’t cope with that, you shouldn’t be doing this job.’

Discussing being on her own again after the split, she said: I’m quite fine being on my own, but not forever.

‘When you’re in a relationship, it’s easy to say, “Great, I’ve got a weekend to myself,” but when you think that might be every weekend, it’s a different story.’

Ruth revealed that the toll of the situation has caused her to lose weight, while she also revealed a hormone check and the end of the menopause may have also been affected.

She said: ‘I have lost weight. Divorce obviously has something to do with it but I also went for a hormone check and rebalance, which helped. It could also hopefully mean that I’m coming to the end of menopause.’

Ruth also admitted that throwing herself into work over the past year has proved a welcome distraction from the heartache of her marriage ending. 

Ruth was spotted last month showing off her ‘saucy’ dance moves with pal Rylan Clark on Instagram 

 In another video, Rylan took to the dance floor as he shimmied and moved his hips from side to side while dancing to Shakira’s Hips Don’t Lie

The TV star added: ‘For a lot of people, whatever troubles you have, work is something that you have to get up and do. For me, it’s always been a good thing to dust myself down and concentrate on something else.’ 

She has also been taking her mind off the subject via fun nights out and Ruth was spotted last month showing off her ‘saucy’ dance moves with pal Rylan Clark on Instagram as she sang along to Montell Jordan’s hit This Is How We Do It.

Ruth looked incredible in a black blazer which boasted an eye catching leopard print collar, which she teamed with a pair of skinny jeans and boots. 

In another video, Rylan took to the dance floor as he shimmied and moved his hips from side to side while dancing to Shakira’s Hips Don’t Lie.

The Radio 2 DJ, 36, who was also dressed in an all black outfit, looked to be having the time of his life.

He was later joined on the dance floor by presenter Lizzie who looked amazing in a figure hugging purple dress which boasted a daring split.
