Ruth Langsford attended Wimbledon on July 1, 2026, accompanied by Niall Holmes, the son of her ex-husband Eamonn Holmes. The outing comes amid reports that Niall has sided with Ruth following the couple's separation and divorce announcement in 2024.

The pair arrived together at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, where they were photographed smiling. According to sources, Niall has been a supportive figure for Ruth since her split from Eamonn after 14 years of marriage. The divorce proceedings have been ongoing, with Eamonn reportedly moving on with Katie Alexander, which has caused tension with his children from a previous relationship.
Reports indicate that Eamonn and Niall had a 'huge row' over Niall's allegiance to Ruth, which was described as 'heartbreaking' for the former This Morning star. Niall allegedly criticized his father's behavior after Eamonn and Katie Alexander attended an engagement party together, just over a year after his split from Ruth.
