Ruth Langsford has teased the exciting release of her tell-all memoir amid her divorce from Eamonn Holmes.

The TV presenter, 65, is preparing to share 'the ups, the downs and the lessons that have shaped her' in her upcoming book, Ruth Langsford Feeling Fabulous.

Ruth and Eamonn, who had been together for 27 years but married for 14, ended their relationship in June 2024.

Eamonn, 66, quickly moved on to date relationship counsellor Katie Alexander, who is 22 years his junior.

The former couple and co-stars have largely avoided speaking about each other following their split.

And now, Ruth plans to speak about her 'experiences' in her new memoir, which releases February 26.

She wrote on Instagram on Friday: 'NOT LONG NOW… Can’t believe that 2026 is the year I publish my first book! I’m very excited but also a little nervous… 

'These are stories about my life, the ups and the downs, the good and the not so good but everything that has made me the woman I am today. 

'I share the experiences that have shaped me and the lessons I’ve learned along the way. Publication day is 26th February but you can pre order a copy now (and a limited number of signed copies are available too). 

'Click the link in my bio or check out my stories to get your copy. Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I’ve enjoyed writing it x'

Loose Women star Ruth has remained single and recently revealed she has been seeing a therapist since their marriage breakdown. 

She told woman&home: 'I started counselling when Eamonn and I separated, and I'm still having it. It is very powerful and very useful. It gives me tools to deal with things.

'My counsellor has probably seen us on TV, but she doesn't know either of us so doesn't get involved and doesn't judge. She just listens and says, 'Have you thought about this?' or 'Why did you feel like that?'

'I think I know myself very well, so it has just been calming. It makes me question how I'm feeling. When my sister died, friends suggested counselling and I said, 'I don't [want] just [for someone] to tell me that I'm really sad,' and I still feel like that.

Eamonn quickly moved on to date relationship counsellor Katie Alexander, who is 22 years his junior (seen together)

'The end of a very long relationship takes a lot of unravelling. Counselling helps you move on from it, to not be held back.'

Ruth is also not ruling out finding love again, sharing: 'I definitely see light in the future where I didn't before.

'Before, I saw darkness and was thinking, 'Oh my God, what's going to happen?' but now the fear [has] gone, because what do you do? Do you crumble? Do you lay down and die? Oh no, not I. I will survive.'

Some close to Ruth say that she was fed up with caring for Eamonn following his hip operation but it later emerged that he was in a relationship with Katie – who he had met several years before.

There is no suggestion that Eamonn cheated on Ruth, who appeared as anchors on ITV's This Morning for a decade before they were axed in 2021.

They are yet to officially divorce and are currently at war over their money, with Ruth apparently upset that they will have to sell the marital home.

Meanwhile, Eamonn says he has been 'ruined' by HMRC after he became embroiled in a row with them over whether he was self-employed freelancer or a 'disguised employee' of ITV when presenting This Morning between 2011 and 2015.
