The GB News presenter recently revealed that the surgery he had undergone on his back “went wrong” as he shared a concerning health update. 

But while Eamonn’s health has seen him suffer setbacks, he was also left blindsided when his soon-to-be ex-wife Ruth Langsford appeared to spearhad announcing their divorce.

Eamonn, 64, and Ruth, also 64, had been married for 14 years and had been an item for 27. It’s claimed that Ruth was left saddened

when it emerged he had been being consoled by a mystery female pal as their marriage fell apart.

But Eamonn’s co-star and friend, Isabel Webster, 41, has spoken about the support he is receiving from pals.

Speaking to the Mirror at the TRIC Awards in London, Isabel said: “He’s gone through an awful lot and we are just all 100% behind him.

Today will be really nice for him and for all of us.” When asked if she is taking care of the broadcaster, she commented: “As his friend, but we’re all very professional, all businesslike as well.

But yes, I’m looking out for him, as are all of the team. It’s hard for anyone going through anything to be up at 3 in the morning.”

Reflecting on his appearance at the glam awards show, she told us: “He’s fine, he’s here, he’s excited for today. The man never stops, he blows me away. It’s really impressive.”

But Isabel, who appears alongside Eamonn on GB News revealed an update on reports that he was offered a large sum of cash to appear on Celebrity Big Brother.

“Eamonn was in the papers that he was asked to Celeb Big Brother,” she said, adding: “That was news to him!” It appears that his big day out paid off as Eamonn and Isabel walked away with a gong from the awards show.

Addressing the crowd, he said: “Thank you very much for this award. We were up against world-class programmes and that makes it a little bit more special. Sometimes we all think about imposter syndrome. I went for an operation a year and a half ago and it went wrong. I got two things in my back that I didn’t want.”

Last month, a representative for Eamonn and his estranged wife said in a statement: “Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.”
