Ruth Langsford praised by Coleen Nolan for 'dignified' split from Eamonn Holmes
Coleen Nolan has commended her co-star and friend, Ruth Langsford, for her grace during her split from Eamonn Holmes.
The shock separation of the couple made headlines in May, with a spokesperson revealing that after 14 years of marriage, they had begun divorce proceedings but wished to remain amicable and preserve their friendship.
While Ruth has kept quiet regarding their breakup, Eamonn expressed gratitude toward his supporters on GB News shortly after the split was announced.

Following his move on with alleged new partner Katie Alexander, Ruth has channelled her energy into her career engagements.
Coleen, discussing her colleague's situation after four months, shared: "Ruth and I keep in touch all the time. She's back at work now, which is great because I really missed her."
Shedding light on Ruth's handling of the matter, Coleen remarked: "I don't want to say too much because it's not my business to say Ruth's life, but what I will say from a friend's point of view is, I've never met anyone that has handled something with so much dignity and pride."
She added with admiration: "She's just such a lady, more of a lady then I'll ever be, I would've spilled my guts right now - as I do, that's my problem, I say too much. She's been absolutely amazing, she really has."
Lastly, Coleen revealed she offered Ruth advice on dealing with the split and staying quiet, though apparently, it wasn't heeded.
"I've given her advice but she doesn't listen to me, I'm going, 'How can you not say anything? ' But I don't need to give her advice," she revealed to Woman Magazine.
Coleen also mentioned that she continues to regularly check on Ruth's wellbeing, stating: "I just love her and I'm in awe of how she's handled everything."
Ruth and Eamonn, who tied the knot in 2010 and have a 22 year old son Jack together, also share three older children from his previous marriage.
Despite their separation, both continue to wear their wedding rings.
When questioned about this by a social media user recently, she responded bluntly: "Because I'm still married."
It is reported that Ruth continues to reside at their former shared home in Surrey, while Eamonn is said to be renting a flat in London near the GB News studio.
