And reports emerged for the first time on Saturday that Eamonn is being comforted over the break-up of his marriage by the blonde divorcée in her 40s who is also a relationship therapist.

According to The Sun, Eamonn has been close to an unknown woman since last year, after they first came into contact several years ago.

Although it is not said that she is the reason for the breakdown of the marriage, it is clear that Ruth did not know her until recently and she will not appear on TV again this week.

A source said The sun: “Ruth will not appear on screen again this week.

‘She has decided to extend her break from ITV so will not return to the Loose Women panel just yet.’

The broadcaster is said to have taken the woman on trips, including a visit to a safari park, and reportedly spoiled her with gifts. It is not said that she is the reason for the breakup of the marriage.

He also has supported a charity related to her work and helped organize a fundraising event for free.

The woman’s name has never been mentioned, with Eamonn careful not to reveal it on social media, and the publication reported that Ruth was apparently unaware of their encounters until recently.

Sources told the newspaper that Eamonn treated his close friend to several extravagant days out, including a Beyonce concert, a visit to Center Parcs last year and tickets to see his favorite team Man United play at Old Trafford.

They explained: ‘Ruth was clearly aware that her marriage was crumbling, but as details come to light, her anger has turned to rage.

‘Eamonn’s friend is impressed by his attention and kindness.’

The pair met via Twitter after the woman replied to a message and it sparked a conversation between the pair.

Friends explained that the woman’s coping skills include “feeling sad” and “separation and divorce.” It seems fitting, then, that she will support Eamonn in this time of uncertainty.

MailOnline has contacted Eamonn’s representatives for comment.
