Television personality Ruth Langsford is preparing to open up about the intricacies of her life in a new memoir. The 65-year-old, who ended her relationship with fellow TV presenter Eamonn Holmes in 2024 after nearly three decades together, is ready to share her personal journey in this eagerly anticipated autobiography.
In a heartfelt Instagram post, Ruth expressed her excitement and apprehension about the upcoming release: “NOT LONG NOW… Can’t believe that 2026 is the year I publish my first book! I’m very excited but also a little nervous. These are stories about my life, the ups and the downs, the good and the not so good, but everything that has made me the woman I am today.”
Ruth promises to delve into the experiences that have shaped her, offering readers a glimpse into the lessons she’s gathered along the way. She announced that the book will hit shelves on February 26th, with pre-orders available, including a limited number of signed editions. “Click the link in my bio or check out my stories to get your copy. Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I’ve enjoyed writing it x,” she added enthusiastically.
Since her split from Eamonn, Ruth has chosen to remain single, while Eamonn, now 66, has moved on with Katie Alexander, a relationship counsellor who is 22 years younger than him. This memoir promises to be a candid account of Ruth’s life, offering readers both the triumphs and challenges of her personal and professional experiences.
Since parting ways with Eamonn, Ruth has remained single, while Eamonn, 66, swiftly found companionship with relationship counsellor Katie Alexander, who is 22 years his junior.
In other news, Ruth previously disclosed that she sought therapy following the dissolution of her marriage.
Speaking to Woman and Home magazine, she shared: “I’ve had counselling, which I never thought I would have and that’s completely different.
“Friends let you rant and rave and they’ll rant and rave with you. Counselling is different.
“In the end, a very good friend of mine practically begged me to see her counsellor. I did it to shut her up and I had one session and absolutely loved her [and] loved it. [I] felt different afterwards.
“I don’t have it very often now but I’ve kept it up. It’s not just about relationship stuff. Now it’s about life, generally, new chapters, moving on, my age. I’ve found it very helpful. I didn’t ever think I’d be a person who had counselling.”
