TV favourite Ruth Langsford has shared a health update with her followers after a “nasty” illness forced her to pull out of a live presenting gig.
With her ex-husband Eamonn Holmes in hospital, Ruth has been suffering health woes of her own. Earlier this week, she was forced to pull out of a slot on QVC, where she sells her own clothing range.
Now she’s opened up about how she’s feeling. It comes after ex Eamonn was forced to call an ambulance after a fall at home.
Ruth Langsford on the mend after ‘nasty’ illness
Earlier this week, Ruth revealed she was too poorly to present her segment on shopping channel QVC.
On Thursday (April 30), Ruth shared: “I’ve got a horrible tummy bug so unfortunately can’t do my show @qvcuk tonight. Thankfully the wonderful @melissahardystyle is stepping in for me so I hope you can join her. Some lovely new pieces launching!”
Earlier today (May 3), after a few days resting and recovering, the star revealed that she’s on the mend.
Posting a video of a porridge pot, berries and granola on her Instagram Stories, Ruth looked to have her appetite back. She shared: “Getting some goodness in after a few days with a nasty tummy bug.”
In her next story, Ruth shared that she’d been sent flowers. “Well these brightened my day,” she said. “So beautiful and smell amazing!”

‘Cuddles with Nurse Maggie’
Ruth’s had a tough time of it lately, with her beloved mum Joan hospitalised following a chest infection.
A week ago, though, she shared that Joan is on the mend – and that Ruth’s dog Maggie is helping with nursing duties.
Posting a video on her social media, Ruth said: “Thank you for all your kind wishes for my mum….she’s doing a lot better after that horrible chest infection….not quite well enough to come out yet [of her care home] but I hope she’ll be back dancing in my kitchen very soon. In the meantime she’s enjoying lots of cuddles with Nurse Maggie!”
Here’s hoping Nurse Maggie also cuddled up to Ruth while she was feeling poorly!
