As a married couple the pair often jokingly bicker live on air, and Eamonn isn’t afraid to push his luck with a crude joke or two.
Earlier this month he did just that, after they listened to You’re Beautiful by James Blunt while introducing the episode’s segments.
Eamonn, who claimed to have requested the song be played for Ruth, then joked that he was in likely for a “fun night” with his wife.
