Eamonn Holmes, 65, ‘lavishes girlfriend Katie Alexander, 43, with luxury holidays and VIP outings in a bid to save their rocky relationship – after backing out of buying her a £550K home’

by

According to the Daily Mail, Eamonn Holmes has reportedly been showering his girlfriend, Katie Alexander, with expensive presents as an attempt to strengthen their troubled relationship.

Last week, the host of GB news, who is 65 years old, surprised the brunette, aged 43, by giving her exclusive seats to witness his cherished team, Manchester United, play against Fulham. Subsequently, he arranged a romantic getaway for them in his hometown of Belfast.

The pair observed an exciting 1-1 draw in the Premier League while seated at the recently constructed £100M luxury seating area. There, they indulged in gourmet meals boasting Michelin stars, as each ticket price tagged a substantial £12,000.

As a devoted admirer reporting the news, I’m sharing that Eamonn, having embarked on a new romance with Katie post our separation from Ruth Langsford, finds himself in a challenging phase. It appears that their recent difficulties have led him to reconsider his plan of purchasing a £550K property for Katie in West Yorkshire, as they navigate through a turbulent period together.

This event occurs a few weeks after he, the broadcaster, lavished a luxurious vacation in Greece on his girlfriend and her three grown-up children as a response to two of his sons supporting his ex during their contentious divorce.

It’s reported that they spent their time at the luxurious Annabelle Beach Resort in Cyprus, featuring four pools, tennis courts, and a spa.

In a report by The Sun after our VIP excursion to the football match, a source shared that although Eamonn and I, Katie, might not have consistently appeared overjoyed during the game, we did make it clear that we remain a couple.

Later, Eamonn’s gloomy expression could be because Manchester United let in an equalizer against Fulham, which meant they missed out on a crucial victory. Surely, the crisp Northern Ireland air would lift his spirits.

Daily Mail have contacted Eamonn and Katie’s representatives for comment. 

Subsequently, it was exclusively reported by Daily Mail that there had been a significant rift between the broadcaster, who is a father of four, and his youngest son Niall (aged 32), born to his first wife Gabrielle.

In a more troubling turn of events, after their separation, Niall has chosen to align himself with his stepmother Ruth rather than his own father.

Last year, Ruth and Eamonn shared the news that they were ending their 27-year relationship and 14-year marriage after a long time together. Now, it appears that this already contentious divorce is set to become even more difficult. According to reports, the relationship between Eamonn and Ruth has deteriorated significantly, with one source stating, ‘It’s safe to say that things between Eamonn and Ruth have reached a very unpleasant point now.’

It’s also understood that Jack, 23, the son he and Ruth have together, has sided with his mother. 

Prior to the announcement of their separation, Ruth helped Jack secure an apartment in Salford. It’s been reported that tensions still persist between him and his father.

As a devoted admirer putting it in my own words: Both Eamonn and Katie, who were both married at the time, vehemently affirm that nothing untoward occurred between them until their respective marriages had concluded. However, their current union has been met with disapproval, or to put it mildly, not received warmly, by my dear old man’s side of the family, as if a lead balloon had fallen among us.

Apart from being a husband, Eamonn is additionally the father of two – his son Declan, aged 36, and daughter Rebecca, aged 34. It’s said that their relationship remains strong, stemming from his first marriage.

Following the TV figure reportedly making a sharp criticism (or negative comment) about Ruth, he was also praising his newly acquired partner.

In spite of the reports of issues, the newly paired pair haven’t hesitated to display their affection openly and appeared extremely affectionate at Nana Akua’s engagement party last month, which was hosted by GB News.

At the lavish gathering, it appears that Eamonn subtly made a comment about his former spouse Ruth, as he discussed his burgeoning fresh romance, as reported by Bella Magazine.

Eamonn is said to have referred to Katie as his “deep connection,” followed by, “It’s during tough times that you discover who stands by your side.

The Bella magazine was informed by a source that Eamonn had made an uncaring remark, however, he is deeply in love with Katie and acknowledges that she has supported him during difficult periods.

To put it simply, it’s quite disappointing for Ruth as she’s stood by his side from the very start.

Recently, Eamonn has faced several health challenges, such as undergoing a double hip replacement operation, experiencing herniated discs, and dealing with persistent spinal issues.

Daily Mail contacted Eamonn’s representatives for comment at the time. 

During the previous summer, Eamonn and Katie developed a strong bond. Shortly afterward, they started going out together. In fact, whispers of an upcoming engagement started circulating as early as December.
