Ruth Langsford explains why she is still wearing her wedding ring following Eamonn Holmes split

Ruth Langsford has addressed confusion over why she is still wearing her wedding rings after splitting from Eamonn Holmes earlier this year.

The Loose Women star, 64, and GB News presenter, announced they they were calling time on their 14-year marriage in May.

While he has reportedly moved on with counsellor Katie Alexander, 42, she has generally kept quiet about their split.

This all changed however when a fan posed a question in response to a video Langsford posted on Instagram which was completely unrelated of her sharing how to make a healthy-looking green juice drink.

“Why has she still got her wedding rings on? Xxxx” the fan remarked.

To which Langsford shot back: “Because I’m still married”.

She then added a further response of two crying with laughter emojis to make her response seem lighter in tone.

It comes after reports that Langsford is considering dating again with her friends keen to help her.

Sources close to the TV star said she previously had no desire to meet someone else, but she has had a change of heart.

"At first, she had no desire to start dating again - but she's beginning to change her mind," an insider told OK! magazine.

"She hasn't dated in so long, so has no idea where to start but lots of her friends are ready to help her. They've suggested dating apps but she's not keen on that and would prefer to be set up on a date. It's very scary for her - but she's allowed to have fun again and live her life."
