Although the presenter hasn’t divulged much about her break-up, surely she has been having a natter with her fellow panellists, right? Despite presumptions, Linda.

who is on the Loose Women panel today (September 6), insists she is staying well clear of any divorce drama!

When OK! asked the actress at the National Reality TV Awards in July how Ruth was doing following the break-up, Linda said she was helping to “keep her spirits high”.

She added: “We’re staying out of it because it’s not our business but we’re supporting her in any way we can and just keeping her happy. It’s sad for the both of them but just keeping her spirits high.”

It’s sad for the both of them but just keeping her spirits high.

It seems both Camp Ruth and Camp Eamonn are staying quiet about the split. In fact, the statement issued by their reps to announce their separation was short and simple.

Representatives said at the time: “Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.”

On July 22, Ruth returned to Loose Women after taking an extended break since April.

Prior to her return, reports warned that Ruth would be keeping her cards close to her chest. Ruth took her typical seat on the panel and sported a striking orange number and freshly styled hair.

Ruth’s fellow panelists, Coleen Nolan, Janet Street-Porter and Brenda Edwards, were extremely pleased to see Ruth. Especially Coleen, who exclaimed: “Can I just say I am so so happy that you are back!”

Janette also quipped: “Thank God, I was left with her!” before motioning toward Coleen.

Ruth insisted: “It’s very nice to be back with you all.”

She also apologised to the panel and said: “I won’t do it again.”
