Ruth Langsford has issued a health update to Instagram fans, revealing she hasn’t left her home for a number of days.

The TV star has had a dramatic few months. In May, it was confirmed that she and Eamonn Holmes had split after 14 years of marriage.

And this week, Ruth revealed to fans that she has been battling with “the lurgy”. Fortunately, she appears to be on the mend now.

After tying the knot in 2010, Eamonn and Ruth announced their divorce in May after 14 years of marriage. They share a son, Jack, together.

The split seemingly came as a shock to the public as the pair had worked closely with one another for many years. However, things started to turn sour when Eamonn reportedly formed a new relationship after their separation.

While not confirmed by anyone, Eamonn, 64, is said to already be dating counsellor Katie Alexander, 42. The pair reportedly met on social media in 2015 and have already been on a luxury cruise holiday together.
