Eamonn Holmes has recently purchased a luxurious newly constructed property for weekend getaways with his younger partner, Katie Alexander, following his separation from his previous companion of 27 years, Ruth Langsford. Situated in a secluded hamlet in Holywood, approximately five miles from his hometown of Belfast, the upscale residences will serve as a retreat for the couple during visits to Northern Ireland to spend time with Eamonn’s family and for relaxing weekend escapades.
Reportedly, the 66-year-old former host of the popular show “This Morning” has secured a property by making a deposit, with prices ranging between £700,000 and £900,000. A source disclosed to the Sun that Eamonn has been eager to acquire a new home in Northern Ireland for some time, emphasizing the opportunity to create new memories with Katie without any reminders of the past, making it an ideal location for their weekend retreats.
Given Eamonn’s health challenges that have advanced since 2021, necessitating the use of mobility aids like a walking stick and wheelchair, the source mentioned that the properties can be tailored to ensure accessibility, making the spot a perfect choice for the couple. The timing of this new hideaway seems fortuitous for Eamonn, particularly following Ruth’s revelation about her upcoming book, “Feeling Fabulous,” which is expected to delve into the highs and lows of their relationship.
Although the details surrounding their separation have been kept private by the former couple, Ruth is anticipated to share more in her forthcoming book, scheduled for release on February 26. In an Instagram post, she expressed her excitement and slight nervousness about publishing her first book, promising to unveil stories of her life that shaped her into the person she is today.
Ruth, who has been navigating life post-marriage and undergoing therapy, opened up about seeking counseling for introspection and self-discovery. With a focus on personal growth and reflection, she highlighted the calming effect of counseling on her emotions and self-awareness.
