Eamonn Holmes health update
Ruth has been married to Eamonn Holmes since 2010. The couple share a 20-year-old son called Jack.
Last month, Eamonn revealed that he fell down the stairs while recovering from a back operation. The fall led to him fracturing his shoulders, resulting in him being unable to return to GB News before the New Year.
Speaking on GB News, he said: “Last month I suffered a fall at home while I was recovering from my back operation and fractured my shoulder. It was a massive setback and means I’m going to need to take some extra time off to get myself better.
“It’s been a hellish few weeks. But day by day I’m improving, and I am remaining positive and trying to look on the bright side.”
