Over a year after their shock split, Eamonn Holmes has admitted to friends that he wants to reunite with Ruth Langsford — but while his heart is pulling him back, Ruth has already moved on.

According to insiders, the 65-year-old  TV presenter has ended his rocky romance with girlfriend Katie Alexander, 42, who was 22 years younger than him. Their relationship, which began last year, fizzled out despite Eamonn splashing out on luxury gifts and lavish trips. “It’s over, and now Eamonn realises what he threw away,” said one source. “He finally understands what Ruth meant to him.”

The revelation comes after whispers that Eamonn has been telling close friends he wants to bring his family back together this Christmas. “He says he wasn’t always the dream husband, but he wants to be friends again, rebuild trust and have Ruth in his life — not just as the mother of his son, but as part of a family again,” the insider explained.

For Ruth, though, the timing couldn’t be worse. Those closest to her insist she’s not interested in rekindling anything with the man who shattered their 27-year relationship. “This is adding insult to injury,” one pal said. “Eamonn is living in a fantasy world if he thinks Ruth will welcome him back. She predicted this day would come — and she’s right — but she no longer has the time, energy or love to invest in him. Her focus is only on Jack.”

The couple — once beloved co-hosts of This Morning — first got together in 1996, welcomed their son Jack in 2002, and tied the knot in 2010. But in May last year, they announced their marriage was over, following claims that Ruth discovered messages between Eamonn and another woman.

What followed was a bitter fallout, including a reported £3.6 million battle over their Surrey mansion. Though tensions appeared to soften over the summer when Eamonn praised Ruth online for caring for their dog Maggie, the reality between them remains cold.

Ruth, also 65, has instead poured her energy into her career and friendships. In recent months, she’s been spotted enjoying nights out with Amanda Holden, Rylan Clark and Lizzie Cundy. “She doesn’t waste time on Eamonn’s regrets,” a friend said. “He took her for granted for 14 years, and now it’s simply too late.”

Those close to Eamonn insist he is full of remorse. “He’s realised letting Ruth go was the biggest mistake of his life. He’ll keep trying to get her back — even if just as a friend — because he knows what he lost. But Ruth’s revenge is simple: she’s no longer invested. He wants the family back, but that door is closed.”
