Anyone else uncomfortable about Eamonn Holmes with Ruth Langford?

To begin with I thought it was just banter but the more I watch them on This Morning, the more I want to shout at Ruth to tell him where to go! The other day he got something wrong whilst interviewing & Ruth pointed it out ( kindly). He came back with “ Showing me up in front of a stranger”. Just no need for it.

I've thought this for about ten years. She deserves so much better.

Andypromqueen · 19/12/2019 21:16

I really like Eamonn and Ruth - I don’t watch this morning when Philip and holly are on. Agree that it’s just his sense of humour - I think Ruth’s rolling of eyes is just part of their banter.

My dh likes them too and enjoyed that programme they did together about how the other half live - and my dh doesn’t like ANYONE!!

I've always thought they were a total mismatch - looks and personality. She can do so much better.

Why is this still trending after 105 posts?

I'm not bothered either way but this would seem to be some pay off Schofield situation. Has Mumsnet been paid to keep this trending?

MistyCloud · 19/12/2019 21:55

I literally cannot stand him! He is SO punching above his weight with Ruth. WTF does she see in him? Confused

OrangeCinnamon · 19/12/2019 22:03

Eamon IS lovely...well he was when I came across him a few times in previous job.

Can't really say much about on screen relationship except
Stop the shit stirring Pip !

SinglePringle · 19/12/2019 22:07

if you don’t know either of them personally, nor write the scripts for their on-screen banter, why do we have any right to judge...

RESULT! I’m allowed to comment!

Yoohoo16 · 19/12/2019 22:08

I’ve always thought this too!

Opalibra · 19/12/2019 22:40

I must be looking at a different television to me. I think it's the opposite Ruth has Eammon on a short leash, she readily admits she is very jealous. She constantly bullies him hardly allowing him to speak, he is a different person with another co-presenter. Just look how they sit - she has her back to him blocking him from seeing the guests comfortably. She talks over him. He has to have his own christmas tree in his bedroom, she doesn't like his decorations !!Etc., Try watching them again...

Iamacrapmom · 19/12/2019 22:40

He's from Belfast that's the way we get on 😂

alwayscrashinginthesamecar1 · 20/12/2019 02:03

Well I'm from NI and have always thought Eamonn was a massive arsehole. My dad was a journo back in the day and worked with him occasionally back in his UTV days when he was married to his first wife. My dad thought he was a pompous arrogant twat. Grin

JolieOBrien · 20/12/2019 04:04

So some people think the OP is a itv plant to defect criticism away from Philip? I would not be surprised to be honest .... well I still think Philip is an arrogant full of himself man and needs to let someone else take over This Morning. I have watched his ego grow and grown over the years ... this is what money and fame can do to you imho.

JolieOBrien · 20/12/2019 04:07

grown and grow I meant to type

Also no wonder he wanted Rochelle to takeover from Holly last year if his daughter is employed by her.

This is interesting

What, can dish out the ‘banter’ but have a strop when it’s given back, like Eamonn does?!

Sundancer77 · 20/12/2019 09:00

I only watch it really when Eamon & Ruth are on..the Phil & Holly shows are pretty dull

GabsAlot · 20/12/2019 10:39

dont talk to me about lorraine kelly and her tax-its a persona she said im not real on telly thats how she won

so shes being fake every day then silly cow

Opalibra · 20/12/2019 12:49

I disagree, Eammon is the one who suffers, Ruth dominates, she is definitely the Boss, together why, because they are only together, whilst working. He has Ireland & football.

JolieOBrien · 20/12/2019 12:54

Does Phil live in Wolverhampton as well as London? Someone told me this today and I really don't believe it TBH

JolieOBrien · 20/12/2019 12:58

This is his lovely house in Oxfordshire... lucky him.
