The break-up is becoming increasingly bitter with celebs queuing up to take sides in the shock divorce, which was exclusively revealed by The Sun.
A source told us: “It is utterly absurd what is being said by Eamonn and his friends but the sad reality is that the marriage split has caused a fissure among the showbiz community.
“It’s ‘Eamonn or Ruth’ and people are taking sides. The row is incredibly divisive and getting worse.”
Ruth’s loved ones “howled with laughter” at reports suggesting Eamonn was living a solitary life in a flat near a roundabout and a busy ring road.
The TV favourite is in fact in a multi-million pounds apartment on one of the plushest private estates full of £10m homes.
Just a stone’s throw from a golf course and wild deer strolling around idyllic Richmond Park in Surrey.
And The Sun on Sunday can reveal his new partner, marriage counsellor Katie Alexander, is staying with him this weekend – the fourth weekend on the trot they have been holed up together in his luxury pad.
Pals of Ruth also point to the fact that the Loose Women star stood by him and was “literally helping him get in and out of bed” following his health woes despite them growing apart in recent months.
And he only left the marital home in Surrey after Ruth was horrified to stumble across correspondence he had exchanged with another woman on a laptop.
The Sun also revealed how Eamonn and mother of three Katie had secretly embarked on trips behind Ruth’s back as they grew increasingly close.
Katie has twice been to Belfast in Eamonn’s beloved Northern Ireland and also treated to trips to Center Parks, a safari park, Manchester United games and a Beyonce gig.
A source told us: “There is an alarming re-writing of history going on from ‘Team Eamonn’.
“The fact remains that he would still be in the marital home, being cared for by Ruth, if she didn’t find out what had gone on behind her back.
“There is a lot still to spill out on what has really gone on during Eamonn’s marriage. It will all come out in the wash.
“And even he will raise eyebrows at some of the details surrounding his new confidant Katie, who has told pals she’s ‘madly in love’ with him.
“Watch this space.”
Recently, insiders said the couple had drifted apart, with their last social media post in July 2022.
Their incredible family home boasts a family kitchen and cosy living room as well as a workout space.
The kitchen has fresh white marble worktops for a fresh feel while there’s the contrast of black furniture in the living areas.
Outside, there’s a huge garden with a flagstone-paved workout space and sofas to relax on afterwards.
He attended the annual ceremony in London solo, using a wheelchair for assistance.
The Belfast-born TV star is in chronic pain and had a double hip replacement in 2016, followed by surgery in 2023.
Speaking about their split at the awards ceremony, after GB News scooped an accolade, Eamonn was accused of taking a swipe at the Loose Women anchor.
He also opened up on their break-up said: “I’m not OK.
“This is not a good time at all.”
He added to The Mirror: “It’s too early to say but I hope we can still be friends.”
Previously, we told how Eamonn is being consoled by a blonde divorcee in her 40s – who also happens to be a marriage counsellor.
TV’s golden couple revealed their split after 14 years in an exclusive statement to The Sun on Sunday.
Their spokesperson told us: “Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.”
Despite the news breaking in spring, Eamonn had hinted at their troubles six months beforehand.
The couple share son Jack, 22.
Eamonn is also dad to three children from his previous marriage.
