RUTH Langsford has shared a major health update, three weeks after her mum was admitted to hospital for a broken pelvis.
Joan, 94, suffered a recent fall and broke her pelvis, with Ruth, 64, keeping her social media followers in the loop on her recovery.
In a new post shared on her Instagram Stories today, the Loose Women anchor uploaded a touching video of her mum back home and spending quality time with her dog, Maggie.
Layered against Everly Fair’s cover of I Love You Always Forever, Ruth wrote in her caption: “SHE’S HOME!!! Mum is finally out of hospital!
“Thank you to all the nursing staff at St.Peter’s Hospital and Woking Community Hospital for taking such good care of her.
“As you can see, Maggie is VERY happy to have her home!”
It was just days ago that Ruth shared her last update, in which Joan was seen holding a hot drink with cake crumbs scattered on tissue paper in front of her.
Ruth revealed her hopes that she can return home soon, captioning the clip: “Love is….sharing the last piece of Christmas cake!
“Happy New Year from me and Mum…thank you for all your kind wishes. Hoping to have her home soon x x.”
Last month, Ruth shared a look at her elderly’s mum facial bruising after a nasty fall saw her taken to hospital.
She wrote: “Mum’s got a right shiner after her fall,” before telling fans that she was trying to soothe it with Arnica cream.
TV star Ruth also penned: “94 years old and hardly a grey hair… I’m hoping I’ve inherited the gene.”
Ruth first told fans of her mum’s horror accident as she penned: “Hospital visit….thank you all so much for your lovely messages and well wishes for my darling Mum.
“She’ll be in hospital for a bit longer yet, but she’s in pretty good spirits considering and I hope she’ll be home for Christmas.”
The former This Morning anchor then took to the comments section to reply to one fan, who wrote: “Aw bless her, I bet she is a model patient.
“Hopefully she will be better soon and home soon for Christmas, have a lovely Christmas.”
Mum of one Ruth was quick to reply: “She is a model patient.
“Although a bit discombobulated.”
In her more recent update, Ruth showed her mum tuning into the programme Butterflies, featuring Wendy Craig and Geoffrey Palmer from 1978.
Ruth’s mum’s injury prompted Ruth’s ex Eamonn to get in touch.
Her most recent post about Joan was commented on by hoards of celebrity friends and fans – but was also ‘liked’ by ex-husband Eamonn.
It came shortly after The Sun exclusively revealed how former This Morning anchor Eamonn and his former wife Ruth were pushing for a “quickie divorce.”
The pair’s terms for their split have now come to light following their shock split in May.
Yet the timing of Eamonn’s recent romantic trip to Paris with new girlfriend Katie Alexander – and the divorce conditions – have sparked speculation he is now engaged to the marriage counsellor.
She was seen wearing a huge ring as she strolled the streets of the French capital.
