Eamonn Holmes and his girlfriend Katie Alexander have been spotted heading to Barcelona airport for a luxury Mediterranean cruise. The couple, who have been dating for some time now, were seen for the first time together in public after reports that Eamonn had surprised his ex-wife Ruth Langsford with a romantic getaway.
The 64-year-old presenter, who recently joined GB News, was seen in a wheelchair due to ongoing health issues, including back problems that have affected his mobility. Despite this, he looked dapper in a navy jacket and matching trousers, and even stopped to greet some fans on his way to the terminal. Katie, who works as a relationship counselor, followed closely behind, dressed in beige chinos and a blue and white striped cardigan.
Sources close to Eamonn say that his latest step with Katie has left Ruth and her friends surprised. The couple reportedly went on a trip to Belfast earlier in the summer, and Eamonn has been open about his struggles with back pain and mobility since slipping three discs in his back in 2021. In May of this year, he announced his split from Ruth after 14 years of marriage, and they share a son together.
But despite the challenges, Eamonn seems to have found a new lease of life with Katie by his side. He appeared in high spirits as he gave her a thumbs up while they made their way through the airport. A source told The Sun that the couple has been inseparable and are planning to make their relationship public soon. They have even reportedly been offered "big money" for their first official picture together.
Eamonn and Katie's Mediterranean cruise is their second holiday together, after their trip to Belfast earlier in the summer. The pair met on social media in 2015 and grew closer after Eamonn's split from Ruth. A source says that they are definitely in it for the long haul and that Katie has said, "I love him and he loves me."
Aside from navigating a divorce, Eamonn has been trying various treatments to manage his chronic back pain. He took four months off work earlier this year to recover from spinal surgery, but suffered a major setback when he fell down the stairs and "smashed" his shoulder. He has also been trying out new therapies, including an "anti-gravity" treadmill device, to help with his mobility.
Eamonn and Ruth were a beloved presenting duo on This Morning and were married in 2010 after dating for 13 years. They share a son, Jack, who was born in 2002. Eamonn also has three children, Declan, Rebecca, and Niall, from his previous marriage to Gabrielle.
