This weekend The Sun revealed that Eamonn’s ex Ruth Langsford has hired a “fierce” divorce ­lawyer in their marital split.

But last night Eamonn appeared to be in good spirits as he caught up with Serendipity actress Kate, 51.

The telly host posted a photo of him beaming with his arm wrapped around the movie star.

The broadcaster wore a black suit and Kate dazzled in a white top with a huge floral detail, and a black skirt.

Eamonn said they’d been pals via social media for years but had finally met in real life.

He captioned the post: “After years of being SM friends an ambition fulfilled tonight with the wonderful actress Kate Beckinsale.”

But some fans were quick to take aim at Eamonn for moving on with his life amid his bitter split with Loose Women’s Ruth.

One wrote: “Putting this on social media 🙄 poor Ruth.”

A second hit out at the presenter and said: “We get it, you like younger women currently.”

A third commented: “He lost such a lady is the new lady his carer??”

This angry follower said: “You have destroyed Ruth and your beautiful son Jack, I don’t think you will find happiness.”

This person shared: “Publicity stunt! Nothing more! Grow up Eamomn. Trying make your wife jealous with a younger model! Cringe.”

While another added: “Ruth has shown so much dignity. Eammon is disrespectful flaunting his floozy!”

But some followers were quick to defend the star and said they should be happy that he appears in a positive place.

This person said: “Oh My Good God! These Comments!! He’s been struggling and Kate has been really really poorly and them meeting has put a smile on their faces. Be happy for them, you twisted people!”

A second echoed: “Good lord there are so many disgusting nasty comments about Eamonn. It’s his life no one knows what happened and quite frankly it’s no one’s business either.”

Another added: “So many nasty comments! If you can’t say anything nice say nothing at all….”

The TV star’s snap comes after he enjoyed a getaway with his new girlfriend Katie.

And earlier this week we revealed that Eamonn is set to move in with his girlfriend, just four months after announcing his shock split.

Meanwhile Eamonn’s ex Ruth Langsford has hired a “fierce” divorce ­lawyer in their marital split, as revealed by The Sun this weekend.

Eamonn will be up against Catherine Costley, a protegee of Baroness Fiona Shackleton, who was enlisted by Paul McCartney in his break-up.

Loose Women host Ruth turned to her several months ago as she seeks to end her 14-year marriage to Eamonn with a financial settlement.

Ruth is STILL wearing her wedding ring after she was pictured at a public outing over the weekend.

The telly star put on a brave face to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Society – and Ruth is an ambassador for the charity.

The event took place in Painshill Park in Surrey, close to where Ruth lives in the marital home she once shared with Eamonn.

On Saturday night Ruth thanked fans for their support as she enjoyed a takeaway with her son Jack, who she shares with Eamonn.
