EAMONN Holmes’ girlfriend has responded to claims he’s “miserable” and their relationship is “under strain”.

Therapist Katie Alexander, 43, has been dating the 65-year-old TV veteran since the breakdown of his marriage to Ruth Langsford last year.

Despite raised eyebrows over their 23-year age gap, the couple have been inseparable – with Eamonn lavishing his lover with VIP treats.

But behind the flashy gifts and extravagant trips, rumours have circulated that their romance is on the rocks.

Mum of one Katie has hit back to reveal the truth about her future with Eamonn, telling close friends: “It’s the two of us.. Always and forever.”

She shared the message on her private social media account alongside pictures of the couple together.

Katie paired the messaged with a song by Otis Redding, That’s How Strong My Love Is.

She posted the defiant message as reports emerged about them spending more time apart.

A source close to Eamonn told the Daily Mail: “He’s grumpier than ever and his health problems really aren’t helping, but instead of moving closer to Katie and settling, he’s spending more time with his family in Belfast, often without her.”

It has reportedly effected him at GB News where he works on the Breakfast Show, with colleagues describing him as “very, very moany”.

One added: “He’s a miserable goat even on a good day.

“He goes into GB News in the morning, and he moans and moans.

“It seems to be fizzling out for him. He is very low – the only thing that cheers him is going to work, he loves working.”

The veteran star is still waiting to finalise his divorce from Loose Women host wife Ruth, 65.

We revealed how Ruth and Eamonn announced they were going their separate ways after 14 years of marriage in May last year.
