This Morning has confirmed that Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford will be returning to the show next week.

Another said, ‘Oh wow!!! Ruth and Eamonn are back next week! Thank God for normality and real people. I’m not into bouts of loud laughter... I want our lovely Ruth and Eamonn. Just a lovely way to spend the morning... they’re like family! Can’t wait to see you x’
Eamonn and Ruth presented their last show on Friday 18th of December and their departure from the show sparked some controversy among loyal This Morning viewers who were gutted to see them go.
After their last show former Sky News anchor Eamonn took to social media to thank supporters for their outpour of love but urged them to stop.
"Ruth and I have been overwhelmed by the amount of messages.
"Could I just genuinely say, thank you, we do feel the love. But stop it, stop it now! Thank you. Get on with your lives, we certainly intend to get on with ours."
'We hope you make Alison and Dermot as welcome as you’ve made us over the years. Have a Ball you two,' Eamonn wrote in another post, congratulating the new hosts.
