To think Eamonn Holmses's new girlfriend is a lot less attractive than his wife

Terrible tight trousers too

Standing next to him she looks like his care assistant

(Bitchiest thing I've said all week, feels good to let it out)

Personally I think the new girlfriend is very attractive, as is Ruth.

As for the comments about her being "saddled" with him in a mobility scooter and her looking like his carer, well you're all a sad bunch. There are many disabled people on here of all ages, some need aids such as a wheelchair, mobility scooter and their loved ones are very much NOT saddled with them. They are not a burden to their loved ones. Please be more mindful about making comments like these and who might be reading them!

I've been my husband's carer since I was younger than her. I feel sad that people might be looking at us and thinking I'm "saddled" with DH. Thank you for understanding.

I am my DH's carer too and have been for a long time, though not from quite such a young age. The comments are disgusting but sadly not surprising.

Werehalfwaythere · 11/09/2024 17:07

That's really mean.

It's not her fault is it? She's just dating Eamon, no need to be unkind about her looks. Seriously.

TheRavenSaid · 11/09/2024 16:22

Whats wrong with it?

Its factually correct. Its not an attack on her looks like the OP.

She looks normal, can't imagine why she wants to be saddled with him.

Saddled with him?

Pushing him around in a mobility scooter?

You can't see anything wrong with those comments?

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 11/09/2024 17:11

Are you (OP) and the rest of you slagging her off all stunning models where people pass out through sheer beauty and admiration when they see you…

OhmygodDont · 11/09/2024 16:26

I mean I don’t think she’s an ugly women or anything like that. But she is only with his for fame and cash let’s not joke ourselves.

Like many old and infirm rich men with much younger women, they all have one thing in common and it’s they are rich.

Could be.... Personality?

Seriously, personality is what makes people attractive. It's possible she's after some cash, but it's also possible she's attracted to his personality. I mean, Ruth obviously was for a long time. And his ex wife.

This thread is crazy. In most others, people are quick to point out looks aren't everything, yet on this thread, they're everything.

I thought off camera he was meant to be quite the knob and horrible to Ruth.

Though I guess something would have made her love him to start with.

Dweetfidilove · 11/09/2024 17:29

Go on @OptimismvsRealism . Show me how you look next to this good looking woman.

This thread makes you seem an ugly sort.

LlynTegid · 11/09/2024 17:30

If it is personality that makes Eamonn Holmes attractive to some, the off screen Eamonn is very different from the onscreen one.

Comments about his girlfriend's appearance are unkind. Same as those about the third Mrs Johnson made by some advisors in 2020 were unkind.

PointsSouth · 11/09/2024 17:40

So, OP, you think he shouldn’t be going out with someone you feel is less pretty than his former wife.

So presumably you’d be delighted if he were going out with someone you feel is more pretty than his former wife

Or would you just be this unpleasant either way?

Liv999 · 11/09/2024 17:45

I agree, I think Ruth is gorgeous

GapTshirtsAreShitQualityTheseDays · 11/09/2024 17:46

Those trousers look like me when I've put on weight but intending to lose it so I refuse to buy new trousers.

Too tight round the tummy which is causing them to ride up and look too short.

Stepawayfromthefridgenow · 11/09/2024 17:46

@LlynTegid How do you know?

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 11/09/2024 18:34

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 11/09/2024 16:11

She's lovely as is Ruth. I imagine he has something about him to have pulled aruth in the first place- and his first wife too! Why does it bother you OP?

Perhaps she fancies Eamonn and is gutted she didn’t get in there first. 🤣

namechangetheworld · 11/09/2024 18:44

The new girlfriend is conventionally very pretty (and far too good for him). Maybe Ruth would have been seen as more attractive 20 years ago, but not now. Lots of posters of a certain age are deluding themselves on this thread.

SoupDragon · 11/09/2024 18:49

HeySummerWhereAreYou · 11/09/2024 16:51

Rubbish.

As you appear to have poor reading comprehension skills, here are a few examples:

botoxy and collagen-filled

If she wants to spend her 40s carrying luggage for her obnoxious boyfriend in a mobility scooter, let her.

Not sure what she’s getting out of it.
His cash 💴

not as attractive as his ex wife

she is only with his for fame and cash let’s not joke ourselves.

Shrug. She seems pretty pleased with herself and Ruth seems to be having self esteem issues. Ruth is beautiful and new girlfriend is not (and needs to size up on the trousers). And together as a couple they look really 🫥

Yes I am gutted I cannot act out my daddy issues with someone in worse nick than my actual dad.

@namechangetheworld 20 years ago! Don’t be ridiculous, it’s clear to see Ruth is still a good looking woman and one of those women that will be, annoyingly until she’s old

TrishM80 · 11/09/2024 23:06

Why do you even care, OP? Are you related to Ruth or something?!

Why does anyone care about anything celebrity gossip related? Bit of downtime.

I ask myself the same question, why does anyone care? A load of shite.

Lucky for the human race that we've got you thinking solely about high minded things and not, for example, wasting your time posting on celebrity gossip threads on mumsnet

Really sad to read this post.

It's literally about nothing else than running down how a woman looks.

I thought we'd moved on from that sort of thing and that women were supposed to build each other up.

If a man was writing this about a woman on here there would be uproar l!!!

Nasty and unnecessary!
