Loose Women panellist Ruth Langsford has appeared to take a swipe at her former partner Eamonn Holmes after revealing on TV she is currently “throwing out a lot of stuff” from her house.
Speaking on the show yesterday, the ITV broadcaster was discussing the topic of antiques and whether those around the Loose Women table “hang onto old bits of tat” or get rid of them.
Saying she was “not a hoarder” and was a “clearer-outer”, Langsford added: “Come round I have always got a skip outside.”
During the conversation, Langsford also remarked “I’m throwing out a lot of stuff out at the moment”, which was greeted with applause and laughter by the audience in the studio and Coleen Nolan, who gave Langsford a clap over the apparent dig.
Belfast GB News presenter Eamonn Holmes and Langsford announced their split after 14 years of marriage earlier this year.
Since then, the Northern Irishman has since moved out of their £3.5m Surrey mansion they shared together.
The pair had previously anchored the This Morning Friday segment before they lost their slot in a show shake-up in late 2020.
Langsford’s joke on TV is one of the few times either of the pair have publicly referenced their split, though the Belfast man has been pictured on a romantic holiday with his new 42-year-old girlfriend Katie Alexander.
Holmes and Langsford have one son named Jack, born in 2002. Holmes also has three other children from his previous marriage.
