Ruth Langsford leads the celebs at Wimbledon as she arrives with ex Eamonn Holmes’ son Niall after he sided with his stepmother in couple’s divorce battle

Ruth Langsford brought the son of ex Eamonn Holmes to star-studded Wimbledon on Wednesday as her plus one.

The TV star, 66, and her stepson Niall, 32, sat together on Center Court and looked like a house on fire; Ruth was wiping the tears from her eyes because she was laughing so hard.

Niall is the youngest of Eamonn’s three children with his first wife, Gabrielle Holmes. Last year, it was revealed that he had a major falling out with his father over his bitter split from Ruth.

Niall stood by his stepmother Because of her own father, as the exes prepare to go to court.

Eamonn and Ruth, who share 24-year-old Jack, announced their separation in May 2024 after 27 years together, 14 of which were married.

Before they went their separate ways, Niall was brokering deals for the couple for endorsements or personal appearances.

Insiders told the Daily Mail’s Katie Hind last year that Eamonn and his son had a ‘hot row’ after the split.

‘Niall hit back at his father’s actions as Eamonn accused him of siding with Ruth. This all happened over a year ago and they haven’t spoken since,” the source said. ‘Niall adores Ruth’.

Also at the sporting event was Sara Davies, who dazzled in her green jumpsuit.

Meanwhile, Frankie Bridge cut a chic figure in a green crop top and white pleated skirt.

Eamonn and Ruth first met through their mutual friend, GMTV star Sally Meen; Eamonn also joined the program in 1997.

Two years later he separated from his first wife Gabrielle, the mother of his three eldest children, including Niall.

And although he felt the pair formed an instant bond, he did not openly confess his love for Ruth for two years, ensuring it became the country’s best kept secret.

To remain respectful of his ex of nearly 20 years, Eamonn refused to even hold her hand in public or attend events together for the first few years of their relationship.

Niall Holmes is the youngest of Eamonn’s three children with his first wife, Gabrielle Holmes. Last year, it was revealed that he had a major falling out with his father over his bitter split from Ruth.

They eventually married in 2010, after 13 years together, in a lavish ceremony held at the grand 19th-century Hampshire hotel The Elvetham.

Friends of the couple say their ‘love turned into absolute hatred’ as they argued bitterly over how their former marital home and money should be divided. Read the full story here.

The estimated £10 million divorce battle heads to the High Court for a settlement later this year after settlement talks collapsed.

It is understood that the trial date has been set for November, as the TV star couple attended the hearings last June and February.

The trial could involve a personal fortune of around £5 million.

The couple’s six-bedroom mansion in Weybridge, Surrey, is also said to be a ‘major sticking point’. This work, which was purchased 12 years ago for £3.6 million, is now thought to be more valuable.

Eamonn moved out following the split in 2024 and now lives in a penthouse flat just off the Kingston one-way system in Surrey, while Ruth remained put.
