In the last year Eamonn has grown close with relationship counsellor Katie, 42, and they have started spending a lot of time together.

The pair sparked engagement rumours when Katie was seen with a ring on her finger, and according to OK! magazine, it has “really upset” her.

A source told the publication: “Ruth has been trying her best to be respectful to Eamonn for the sake of both their families and especially Jack.

“She is still wearing her wedding ring and doesn’t feel right taking it off at the moment and she wanted to be as respectful as possible and does want to invite any more speculation about their situation.

“But seeing Eamonn’s new woman wearing an engagement ring over the weekend really upset her, not because of Eamonn moving on, but because she finds it hard having their marriage and split back in the limelight again.

“She would prefer it was done in private but she understands that there will be interest – it just feels like another blow – and she feels embarrassed about it all”.

The Sun has contacted Ruth’s rep for comment.

Eamonn has reportedly sent Ruth a reassuring message after pictures of Katie with a ring on circulated.

Beaming Katie was spotted running errands near the TV star’s home, showing off the sparkler.

Katie has denied it was an engagement ring and insists they’re not engaged.

A source told MailOnline: “There are other people in this and I know Eamonn had to message Ruth to say there was nothing in the engagement speculation.

“Katie just wants to get it over and done with but Eamonn is less keen because he doesn’t want to hurt Ruth’s feelings.”

Katie met Eamonn on X/Twitter in 2015 after she commented on a post and it sparked a conversation.

The former TV couple Ruth and Eamonn announced their split back in May.

Eammon later moved out their home after she discovered messages between him and another mystery woman.
