Eamonn Holmes Unexpectedly Replaced on GB News as New Host Steps In

GB News viewers noticed a significant change on the morning of August 19 as Eamonn Holmes was absent from his usual spot on the GB News Breakfast Show. The 64-year-old broadcaster typically co-hosts the show alongside Isabel Webster from Monday to Wednesday, but his absence this week raised questions among fans.

In Eamonn’s place, Isabel, 41, was joined by Nana Akua, a familiar face on GB News since 2021. Together, the duo covered the day’s top stories, including Keir Starmer’s dip in support and Kamala Harris’ final campaign stop in Pennsylvania.

While no official explanation was given for Eamonn’s absence, it’s speculated that he may be taking a break from his hectic schedule. Recently, Eamonn has been in the spotlight not just for his professional life but also for his personal life. After announcing his separation from Ruth Langsford, it’s been reported that Eamonn has found love again with Katie Alexander, a 42-year-old fellow divorcee, told Daily Express.

Katie’s ex-husband, George Alexander, recently spoke out about their relationship, expressing sympathy for Ruth. “It took me a couple of years to recover. I know how distraught Ruth must be feeling. She’s going through what I did after our marriage ended,” George shared with The Sun. He suggested that Katie might be feeling some guilt about Ruth, given their connection.

According to George, Katie and Eamonn began communicating on social media while she was still married, though he insists their interactions were platonic at first. “She was not swooning over him as though he was George Clooney,” George explained, adding that Katie enjoyed engaging on social media and was pleased when Eamonn responded.

However, George was surprised to learn that Katie and Eamonn had been “regularly” seeing each other since her split from George in 2022. He admitted, “I was surprised by it. Katie would go and visit him. It was a regular pattern.”

Meanwhile, Ruth Langsford, 64, has been adapting to her new chapter in life. The former This Morning presenter recently underwent a glamorous transformation, opting for longer hair after taking advice from her social media followers. Ruth shared her new look on social media, beaming from her dressing room in a stylish black and white blouse, complete with bold eye makeup, looking almost unrecognizable. As Eamonn navigates these changes, it remains to be seen when he will return to his regular spot on GB News.
