Eamonn Holmes -reap what you sow

[RosePetalsRose]

Just want to say that I love Eamonn Holmes so it's not a bashing thread. Just an observation.

I was thinking about his ex wife and children. He left his young family as his career was more important.
He met (allegedly after they split) this beautiful younger attractive exciting Ruth. Got with her.
But now what does he have? He has ailing health and no wife to be with him in sickness and in health?
Who knows if he had made an effort and put his first family first rather than his career he could have been with someone who would have loved and cared for him in his old age.

It's quite sad.

No one knows what has gone on in their marriage. How awful to be subject to so much speculation and finger pointing. It’s no one else’s business.

@TwattyMcFuckFace I am really not gleeful at all. You are the one who is using these horrible words about their marriage. Maybe you need to take a long hard look at yourself.

@QueenOfTheLabyrinth you thought it and implied it. Not me. That's your issue.

i don’t like the fucker so am glad this is all crashing down around him. The second he went on GB news I knew Ruth would see the light

This seems like a bashing thread to me. Strange.

Approx 155, 000 marriages, a year, break up. For a variety of reasons.

Some second marriages are happy, some not.

Not anyone’s business. Leave them to it. No one knows what goes on behind closed doors.🙄

@RosePetalsRose

there is nothing wrong with being focused on your career though

I was on their TV show once. Ruth was lovely, genuinely nice and friendly. Eamonn... wasn't. He did all the right things in front of the camera but it was empty, and when they weren't rolling he couldn't have been less interested. He performed well, but he wasn't genuinely nice.

@LuckySantangelo35 there is if it causes your marriage to breakdown

Yes your comment is rather strange.

OP you know absolutely nothing about his first marriage. An awful post.

I used to fancy him when he was first on tv. I think he’s not going to be bad off money wise or woman wise. He’s got a few other assets I presume money wise and I’m sure once he licks his wounds he could well meet someone else.

And agreed with some PP’s I don’t think you know as much as his marriage as you think you do OP.

I have no idea of his relationship history but I have often thought him rude and boorish to ruth on tv so not surprised the marriage has finally ended. Obviously I only know how he behaves on screen but what I have seen I don't like at all.

I can understand that though. It’s a job. Why should he have to show faux interest in subjects or people who don’t interest him?

Well said.

Having taken a long, hard look at your thread, I very much stand by what I said.

It's sad because now he has ill health the first wife would would have probably been there for him and looked after him.

You have absolutely no idea if this is the case or not. You might just as well say that if they moved to the UK they would have still divorced, he didn't meet anyone else and would have been on his own for the past 30 years.

This is Eamonn Holmes who blamed a young rape victim for not taking a taxi.
Very unlikeable man.

I always found him patronising when he spoke to Ruth on TM. Smacked of old fashioned misogyny. I wasn’t surprised when he made a move to whatever the other news channel is, Britain First or whatever, in fact it made sense as to why I’d never liked his values. I think Ruth has had a lucky escape.

Op are you divorced. There is clearly something very wrong with this thread. You keep edging that in some way he did his ex wife wrong. Firstly insinuating he cheated, then insinuating that he should have give up his career aspirations as she didn’t wish to move, even stating bizzarely how she’d have stood by him. Which is pure fantasy.

are you a first wife whose husband has moved on and you’re just really bitter about it so projecting?

Very strange thread, almost like you’re taking this personally…I like Eamon..and Ruth, from what I can see they are not spoken badly of and are good people 🤷🏻‍♀️
I think it’s sad they’ve broken up

Who cares more to the point the overwhelming replies are based on speculation and assumptions

if there were personal friends of mine and I knew the truth of what went on then I might be in a position to comment

It’s very clear the op thinks he’s in some way done his ex wife wrong, and if he’d stayed with her, he’d have someone caring for him now. Which is just the oddest thing to think ever

the op,is also gaslighting readers rhat she doesn’t mean what she clearly does.

i can only sssume this is someone unhappily divorced and projecting.

Is this EH ex wife

I know right, yet many on here are clambering to lick his asshole
