Ruth Langsford ‘planning divorce party’ to celebrate end of marriage to Eamonn Holmes
RUTH Langsford is planning a "divorce party" to signal the end of her marriage with Eamonn Holmes.
According to reports in The Mirror, the Loose Women anchor has insisted "life begins after divorce" as she allegedly prepares to mark the end of a life chapter with her nearest and dearest.
Last month, The Sun was first to report how Ruth, 64, and Eamonn, 65, were pushing for a "quickie divorce."
The pair's terms for their split came to light following their shock break-up last May, and it seems the mum of one is ready to call time on the heartache with her close pals.
Ruth's rep has declined to comment on the claims.
The Sun now understands Ruth is keen to stay in the couple’s £3.5million Surrey mansion as part of her divorce settlement.

Yet while she is attempting to keep normality in her life, the ITV broadcaster appears eager to switch things up, too.
A source previously claimed Ruth - who has her own range on shopping channel QVC - is using shopping as a form of "therapy."
They added to : "Ruth's sass is definitely back.
"She's ready for new adventures, and who knows, a man - if and when, it's on her terms.
"For now, girls' nights and piña coladas are filling the void.
"Ruth has a force field of friends - they're her armour and they give her great advice."
Meanwhile, it is a happier chapter for Ruth after her beloved mum Joan was released from hospital.
