RUTH Langsford has silenced a critic on social media who queried why she was still wearing her wedding ring, despite her separation from Eamonn Holmes.
The Loose Women star shared a video of her making a green juice on social media and sharing her method with her followers.
But one eagled eyed observer, noticed that she was still wearing her wedding ring.
The follower wrote: “Why has she still got her wedding rings on?”
To which Ruth bluntly replied: “Because I am still married.”
Once Britain’s best loved couple, Ruth and Eamonn announced their shock split in May after 14 years of marriage.
Although no official reason was cited at the time, it is now understood that it was Ruth who instigated the separation from Eamonn, 64, after being left devastated when she found messages to another woman on his computer.
But in a recent Instagram post, Ruth, 64, appeared to tell her followers that she is keeping a beady eye on her ex and his surprising new romance with 42-year-old Katie Alexander.
The broadcasting veteran has since been spotted out on dates with blonde Katie, a relationship counselor.
Ruth hinted she has been keeping up to date on reports after sharing a picture of The Sun on her coffee table, that featured a front cover interview with Katie’s ex George Alexander.
Indeed last week, TV host Eamonn was spotted enjoying a meal with his new girfriend on a trip to his native Belfast together.
The pair were seen laughing in each others company at an American-style venue where they indulged in a fry up.
But at the centre of their split has been their adorable pet dog Maggie who has been spending time with both Ruth and Eamonn over the past few months, despite them leading separate lives.
Despite this, in recent weeks, fans have begun to notice a lack of updates on Maggie from Eamonn’s social accounts which he has put down to the 14-year-old pooch having recently undergone an operation.
The Sun previously told how Eamonn is ‘expected’ to lose custody of Maggie and that the exes had been having “difficult conversations” regarding Maggie’s future.
Maggie underwent a procedure to remove a growth and Ruth has since shared a slew of snaps of them together at home.
Over the weekend, Ruth made it abundantly clear that Maggie was still very much with her at home, as they spent time together with Ruth’s mum.
She shared a light-hearted post of Maggie cuddling up to the mother-daughter duo for some cuddles but joked that her mum could have been less than impressed.
Alongside the post, Ruth quipped: “Another afternoon nap for Grandma disturbed!!”
She then shared another post where Maggie gazed up at Ruth as she added the caption: “Not a bit sorry!!”
Divorce proceedings are thought to be underway for the pair who share a grown up son, Jack.
