Moving On After a Public Split
This festive getaway marks a new chapter for Holmes, who publicly announced his separation from wife Ruth Langsford in 2024. The former couple, who share a 23-year-old son named Jack, had been together since 1996 and married in 2010. Their divorce proceedings are reportedly ongoing.
Since the split, Eamonn has moved on with Katie Alexander, who is 22 years his junior. Despite the notable age gap, their relationship appears to be going from strength to strength, with the pair frequently attending high-profile events and now enjoying luxurious holidays together.
Ruth Langsford's Fresh Start for 2026
Meanwhile, Ruth Langsford is reportedly focusing on her own future and is said to be "looking for love" in 2026. A source close to the Loose Women star revealed she is embracing a new beginning following the marriage breakdown.
"This is a new beginning. She’ll be divorced, she’s got a new book coming out and she’s feeling fabulous," the insider said. "And she’s looking for love, so it’s definitely a new start. 2026 is going to be her year."
The source added that Ruth is seeking a partner with a positive outlook and a zest for life. "She’s looking for someone not grumpy. Someone fun who makes her laugh is really important," they explained, noting that she prefers to meet people organically through friends and social outings rather than using online dating apps.
Beyond romance, Langsford is said to be keen on overhauling all aspects of her life. "She is 100% trying to make 2026 her year and is living life to the full," the pal stated. "She’s put her heart and soul into her career and in 2026 is going to have more fun in her personal life."
