Ruth Langsford appeared to take a swipe at her new replacement Alison Hammond when she pointed out she and husband Eamonn Holmes had ‘put the work in’ to make This Morning a success

Ruth Lansford has taken a savage swipe at reality TV stars – including her own replacement Alison Hammond – as she told how she and husband Eamonn Holmes “put the work in” before landing their coveted roles on This Morning.

Ruth, 60, made the comments shortly before the Mirror exclusively told how she and Eamonn are to be replaced on their Friday presenting slots by Alison and Dermot O’Leary.

Ruth said that she and Eamonn had spent years grafting their way to the top of the industry before appearing on the award-winning daytime ITV show, where they have been familiar faces for the last 14 years.

She told the Mirror Notebook: “We’ve put the work in. We didn’t do a reality show and get an overnight job on the telly. We’ve come up through the ranks.

“Eamonn was only 19 when he started out. And he was doing the teatime news in Belfast during The Troubles.

“It was heavy stuff. And he’s now got an OBE for services to broadcasting,” she proudly said of her husband.
