Why all was not as it seems in THOSE photos of Eamonn Holmes and his new 42-year-old girlfriend Katie Alexander, as revealed by KATIE HIND

As a seasoned traveler who has visited numerous destinations around the globe, I must say that Eamonn and Katie’s recent getaway sounds like a luxurious escape that most of us can only dream about. The spa on board with its mud, salt, and steam rooms, sauna, hot and cold plunge pools, and marble hammam benches is an experience that I would relish myself.

On the face of it, it was the perfect romantic gesture from a loved-up man to his new girlfriend.

Experience a lavish voyage across Europe on a state-of-the-art cruise ship that doubles as a stage for performers. The journey will include visits to breathtaking coastal towns boasting exquisite dining options.

Interestingly, despite appearances suggesting otherwise, Eamonn Holmes’ getaway with his young partner Katie Alexander turned out to be a complimentary trip. This perk came as a result of him securing a significant contract to serve as an ambassador for the travel giant, Not Just Travel.

As a reward, the TV host had to create videos for the company’s social media channels during their leisure time, which was provided by Virgin Voyages’ cruise division on the ship named “The Scarlet Lady”. In other words, they were required to work while enjoying a free vacation on that specific ship.

According to the travel expert, despite appearing as if Eamonn was treating Katie to a lavish vacation without spending a dime, it turned out that the trip was essentially free for him.

The trip was included as part of his arrangement with Not Just Travel, meaning he effectively got compensated for the journey. This turned out particularly advantageous, more so since he was allowed to bring a companion along.

The original text implies that there was a work-related aspect, and it was revealed that Eamonn needed to shoot certain parts to advertise the company. However, the absence of payment casts doubt on the notion that it was a purely romantic getaway. (Paraphrased version)

Katie appeared unfazed by it, instead finding the situation delightful since it provided a beautiful, sunny interlude; they were both experiencing the early stages of their romantic affection.

It was quite obvious, especially as Eamonn was playfully patting Katie’s rear end while seated in his wheelchair during their time in Ibiza.

They couple were also pictured in Barcelona airport as well as when they arrived back at Heathrow.

For seven days, Eamonn (age 64) and Katie (age 42) embarked on a travel package advertised as a trip to ‘The Enchanting Mediterranean and Rome’. Their journey began with both of them taking a flight to Barcelona, where they joined the cruise ship.

Subsequently, they navigated their way to Toulon along France’s sunny Mediterranean shore, followed by Marina di Carrara nestled between Tuscany and Liguria on Italy’s northern coastline. After a brief pause there, they continued southward to Civitavecchia, about 40 miles north of Rome, which boasts an ancient Roman port dating back to the second century.

Regarding their living quarters, it seems Eamonn and his partner may have enjoyed the most luxurious accommodation on the ship – a spacious 2,100 square-foot suite that would cost around £1,500 per night with little change left. This opulent room includes round-the-clock concierge service, an endless selection of drinks, a marbled bathroom, and comfortable hand-woven hammocks for leisure on the ‘terrace’ which features an outdoor hot tub.

Instead, Eamonn and Katie might choose to unwind by exploring the onboard spa featuring its clay, salt, and steam cabins, sauna, heated and icy plunge pools, and luxurious marble loungers in a hammam setting. They could then wind down for the evening at the VIP lounge – quite the treat if it’s accessible!

In May, Eamonn accepted the role as an ambassador for Not Just Travel, expressing his love for travel as ‘enchanting’. Additionally, he mentioned that the complimentary cruise would have been particularly beneficial. However, it was disclosed last year that HMRC required him to settle ten years’ worth of delayed national insurance and taxes. This amounted to an estimated sum of approximately £250,000.

According to travel reports, Virgin Voyages would have gladly welcomed Eamonn in his wheelchair since they aim to cater to an older clientele.

Initially debuting in 2021, their aim was to entice a youthful demographic with tattoo parlors, nightclubs, sex advice, and drag queen shows aboard. However, it seems that strategy didn’t succeed, leading them to informally reposition their brand towards older, more conventional cruise travelers instead.

During their recent break, Eamonn and Katie, the couple known for relationship counseling, received much attention. This was their second separation since Eamonn parted ways with his ex-wife, Ruth Langsford, in May.

The initial visit took place in August, and it led them to the presenter’s hometown, Belfast. However, the recent visit was marked by a touch of elegance, despite him needing to use an electric wheelchair for self-driving due to his severe back issues, with Katie accompanying him throughout.

For Ruth, the famous host of ITV’s chat show Loose Women, the journey turned out to be quite unexpected and startling, as she too had been exposed to countless photos of the celebrity duo taken by the swarming paparazzi, much like millions of other viewers.

Back in the year 2015, nine years prior to my separation from Ruth, a friendship sparked between me and Katie through a casual exchange on Twitter. She left a comment on one of my posts, and I couldn’t resist responding.

It’s unclear exactly when this initial interaction turned into a friendship, but reports indicate that during the year leading up to their separation, Eamonn was found to have been generously gifting Katie. He joined her on a safari park trip with her kids and even presented them tickets for a Beyonce concert.

Ever since Ruth disclosed their separation in May, Katie has been frequently dropping by at Eamonn’s residence in Kingston, Surrey – a place he moved to following his departure from the £2 million matrimonial house he previously shared with Ruth, roughly 10 miles distant.

At first, they managed to keep their relationship hidden, but their shared vacation has certainly made it more noticeable.

Undoubtedly, the bosses at Not Just Travel would have experienced great delight, as they are reportedly ‘thrilled,’ knowing that Katie was by his side during these recent events.

According to a source within the industry, ‘Eamonn was originally part of the arrangement, but his fresh relationship added an intriguing twist to the trip, especially when considering it from a promotional perspective.’

Her presence significantly enhanced the company’s reputation – priceless exposure like this can’t be purchased with money.

‘Signing Eamonn up and giving him this trip has been worth every single penny.’
