This Morning’s Ruth Langsford called in sick from the show in the wake of hubby Eamonn Holmes’ drastic double hip replacement operation.
The presenter, 55, who has been helping Eamonn, 56, recover from a recent hip operation, phoned her bosses at 5am on Friday March 4 to let them know she wasn’t able to come in due to her own complaint.
Travel correspondent Jenni Falconer was drafted in last minute to host today’s show with Good Morning Britain’s Ben Shephard after Ruth gave the excuse that she’d ‘hurt her eye’.
