Katie Alexander, the girlfriend of GB News presenter Eamonn Holmes, has revealed the emotional toll of the past year, describing her experience as a “year from hell” filled with lies, psychological threats, and trauma for both herself and her children.
In a raw and honest Instagram Story shared on Monday, Katie, 43, opened up about the backlash she’s faced since beginning her relationship with Eamonn, 65, following his high-profile split from Loose Women host Ruth Langsford.
She wrote: “2024 has been the year from hell – lies about me, death threats from strangers. My mental health has taken a hit, and so has my children’s. One thing I don’t do is forget.”
Katie’s emotional statement comes just as Ruth Langsford has legally moved to sever joint ownership of the £3.6 million Surrey home she once shared with Eamonn. Public records confirm that should Ruth pass away, her share of the six-bedroom property will no longer transfer to her ex-husband, with whom she shares a son, Jack.
Meanwhile, Katie and Eamonn have officially gone public with their relationship after nearly a year of dating, posting a photo together on Instagram just last week. But behind the smiles lies a difficult period for the GB News star.
Last week, Eamonn issued a heartbreaking update about his declining health. After suffering a fall from his chair during a live GB News broadcast, he admitted the physical and emotional struggle has intensified.
Reflecting on a photo from 2022, when he was still able to walk, the TV veteran wrote: “Great picture popped up from three years ago, but it’s made me sad – I could walk. Got to redouble my efforts.”
Eamonn’s ongoing health issues stem from a double hip replacement in 2016 and a complex spinal operation in 2022 that left him reliant on a wheelchair. He remains determined to walk again, despite the setbacks.
