Eamonn Holmes’ girlfriend stood beside him at the Icon Awards, exuding joy as photographers captured the moment. The GB News presenter also appeared in high spirits at the glamorous event in east London.

This public appearance marks the first time Eamonn, 65, and Katie Alexander, 42, who is significantly younger, have been seen together since reports surfaced about the waning excitement in their relationship.

Sources close to the couple indicate that despite extravagant vacations and expensive gifts, their romance is struggling. Eamonn, dealing with chronic back pain from a spinal injury in 2022, now relies on an electric wheelchair for mobility.

Previously married to Ruth Langsford, Eamonn ended their 14-year marriage last year and subsequently developed a strong connection with Katie, who works as a counselor.

Recent reports suggest Eamonn’s mood has soured, with sources revealing that his demeanor has become more irritable. Despite lavish gestures, including gifts and vacations, his happiness remains elusive.

Colleagues at GB News have expressed similar sentiments, describing him as consistently grumpy and increasingly disenchanted with his circumstances.

Adding to his challenges, his son Jack, shared with Ruth, has sided with his mother post-separation, as has his youngest son from a previous marriage.

Ruth has hinted at a potential return to This Morning, expressing interest in working with her “TV son,” Ryland Clark, whom she admires and enjoys collaborating with.
