ITV has announced huge news for This Morning favourite Ruth Langsford in the wake of husband Eamonn Holmes’ latest allegations.
Ruth is set to return to the show for the first time since she and Eamonn were sensationally axed from their regular Friday slot.
She’ll be back alongside her “TV son” Rylan Clark for a stint in the summer.
