“They don’t care. They don’t care about our food supplies. They don’t care about farmers. Could you do that as a living? That is a tough job to do. But politicians don’t care.” pic.twitter.com/yvCwmqxQwG
Eamonn and Ruth tied the knot back in 2010 and were the faces of ITV's This Morning from 2006 until 2021.
Holmes, 64, has been dealing with chronic pain for the last few years. The GB News presenter had to undergo a procedure to relieve pressure on his sciatic nerves in 2022.

Earlier this month, Ruth candidly revealed how she fears he will never be “100 per cent right” after his ill health.
She told Woman’s Weekly: “I look at Eamonn, who’s had his health and back problems, and it makes you realise how important your health is.
“I don’t know how much Eamonn’s mobility will improve,” she added.
Ruth went on: "We live in hope. He does the physio, but there might have to be some acceptance that this might never be 100 per cent right.”
Fans have been reacting to the news on social media, all of whom were 'shocked' to hear.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
