Eamonn Holmes enjoyed a trip to the theatre to celebrate his girlfriend Katie Alexander’s birthday on Wednesday.

The GB News host, 65, went public with his new relationship with the dating counsellor, 43, in May last year following his split from Ruth Langsford.

Heading out in London in a chauffeur driven Range Rover, the couple dressed up for the occasion with Katie wearing an elegant black midi dress.

She teamed the embellished number with a pair of strappy heels and carried a metallic clutch bag.

Eamonn, who was aided by a walking frame, opted for a classic suit and white shirt, with a blue tie.

After surgery on his back in 2022 for a slipped disc, he has not been able to walk unaided and often relies on a wheelchair.

The GB News host went public with his new relationship with the dating counsellor in May last year following his split from Ruth Langsford

Eamonn recently made a sweet marriage remark live on air after his split from ex Ruth.

The presenter and the Loose Women panellist, 64, began dating in 1996 but separated last year after 14 years of marriage.

He made a rare comment about married life during a Valentine’s day morning show on GB News with his co-anchor Ellie Costello.

Asked if he remembered his first Valentine, Eamonn replied: ‘I married her.’ ‘Aww that’s so nice,’ Ellie said.

Eamonn was referencing his first wife Gabrielle Holmes, who he married in 1985 and shares three kids, Declan, Rebecca, and Niall, with.

Shortly after his separation from Ruth in May last year, Eamonn went public with Katie, while Ruth remains publicly single.

Speaking to woman&home about their divorce, Ruth is determined to look ahead and feels an enthusiasm for what’s next, including meeting someone new.

When asked how she is feeling now, Ruth said: ‘I’m alright. Relationship breakdowns are very difficult – marriage, friendship, whatever it is – but you just deal with it and you have to move on.

Eamonn recently made a sweet marriage remark live on air after his split from ex Ruth (seen in 2022)

‘You can either let yourself crumble or you pick yourself up and get on with life. It’s a choice.’

Ruth, who shares son Jack, 22, with Eamonn, added: ‘I’m not delighted my marriage is over but I’ve accepted that my marriage is over, so I am trying to now embrace the fact that I’m single and can make choices that are just about me.’

The former This Morning host, who co-presented the Friday show with her ex-husband Eamonn, went on to discuss navigating a break-up in the public eye.

She said: ‘A break-up of a relationship is hard enough for anybody to deal with. A divorce is very difficult and it’s very painful, but most people don’t have to do it in the public eye, with everybody having an opinion about you and writing things about you and commenting things about you.

‘But that’s the nature of my job. I’ve always had that and if you can’t cope with that, you shouldn’t be doing this job.’
