</p><p>Ruth has spoken in the past about whether a former couple can stay friends when she and Eamonn were hosting This Morning. The presenters spoke about whether they believed it was possible in 2018, with the Loose Women host stating that once a relationship had ended, there’s little point in staying in touch.</p><div class='code-block code-block-inpage'></div><div class='code-block code-block-pread'><ins class=)
Eamonn told Best magazine he hoped he could be friends with Ruth after their split, but conceded it was “too soon’ to tell. His comments came before it was reported Ruth found messages between her husband and another woman on a laptop. She is said to have been left “hurt” after finding out Eamonn is being consoled by Katie Alexander, 42, after the relationship counsellor struck up a friendship with the Northern Irishman over the past couple of years.
Katie’s ex husband has since come forward to offer his sympathy for Ruth. Speaking to The Sun, he admitted he was “heartbroken” when his own marriage came to an end, adding it took him years to “recover”. He said: “She’s going through what I did after our marriage ended.” George added: “She was not swooning over him like he was George Clooney. But she liked being on social media and one day she said she’d had a reply from him.”
George claimed that Katie and Eamonn were speaking on social media when they were together – as friends – adding that he was “surprised” to find out the pair were “regularly” meeting up after his divorce in 2022.

The Mirror has reached out to Eamonn’s reps, with Ruth’s declining to comment.
Things have turned sour between the former couple, with Ruth said to be ’embarrassed’ following false reports of an engagement between her ex and his new girlfriend. After Katie was papped wearing a diamond ring on her wedding finger, rumours emerged, but sources later confirmed the claims to be untrue. However, Ruth was still said to have been upset by the situation, with a source claiming “there have been tears”.
