Eamonn Holmes' Girlfriend Reportedly Moves Out Amid Presenter's Stroke Recovery

Eamonn Holmes' girlfriend, Katie Alexander, has reportedly moved out of the flat they shared as the GB News presenter continues his recovery from a stroke he suffered in April. Holmes, 66, has been hospitalized since the stroke.

Alexander, 45, is said to have moved her belongings out of the rented property on Friday. Sources close to the situation described it as "an incredibly sad situation," noting that Alexander "loved it there and the time they spent together making it home."

Alexander has been described as a "rock and lifeline" for Holmes since he fell ill. She has expressed a desire for him to return to full health and for their lives to get back on track.

It remains unclear where Holmes will reside upon his eventual release from the hospital. Reports indicate his family is managing his financial affairs during his hospital stay.

Holmes and Alexander began dating in May 2024, shortly after Holmes' split from his wife of 14 years, Ruth Langsford. In March, just a month before his stroke, Holmes described Alexander as "the perfect tonic" for his health issues, highlighting their shared tastes and enjoyment of activities like walks and dining out.

Holmes has experienced various health challenges in recent years, including major spinal surgery in 2022 for slipped discs and arthritis in his spine. He had previously stated his intention to make a full recovery and return to his anchor role at GB News, but sources now suggest his recovery is taking longer than anticipated, and his career may be over.

Holmes, who began renting the Surrey flat after his marriage breakdown, had been splitting his time between there and Alexander's home in West Yorkshire.
