Ruth Langsford is one of the nation’s most successful TV presenters, fronting shows including This Morning and Loose Women. And while she admits she loves her career, Ruth has appreciated being able to spend some rare time at home over the past year.
“A lot of people who work kind of went, ‘This is great. I’m going to watch Netflix and chill.’ And I went, ‘I’m going to get a skip and clear out the shed,’” she says.
While she often works alongside husband Eamonn Holmes, 61, Ruth says she’s able to separate their professional relationship “very easily”. The couple, who have been together for 24 years and married for 11, stepped down from their This Morning presenting duties earlier this year, with Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary taking over as hosts on Fridays. But Ruth admits the pair are looking forward to returning to the sofa in the summer.
Here, Ruth, 61, opens up to OK! about the secret to a happy marriage and why she loves being a Loose Woman…
Hi Ruth! How’s the past year been for you?
