Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford say professional chemistry is key to off-screen happiness.
The couple, who are to assume full-time hosting duties on ‘This Morning’ today (14.07.14) while Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby take their annual summer leave, claim that working together throughout the summer is healthy for their marriage, which appears to be as strong and happy as ever.
Ruth, 54, gushed to The Sun newspaper: "People say, ‘How do you put up with each other every day?’ But, actually, I quite like seeing him!
"It’s nice to spend that time together because we don’t spend a lot of time together, which is probably why we’re still married."
Ruth further revealed that despite being married to Eamonn, 54, for four years her attraction to him has not waned at all.
In fact, the presenter recently caught herself admiring a man from a distance in a hotel bar – only to realise that it was her husband.
She explained: "I walked into a room recently and this man was sitting there with his sunglasses on and I thought, ‘Oh he’s hot!’ and it was Eamonn reading his paper.
"For a second I hadn’t realised it was my husband."
