Eamonn Holmes once joked that his and Ruth Langsford’s rescue dog Maggie loved him more than his wife did, much to his dismay. 

The former couple shocked fans last month after announcing they were heading for a divorce after 14 years of marriage.

During their many years together, the pair were no strangers to discussing their relationship, which changed 14 years ago when they adopted their pet pooch from the charity Dogs Trust. lime

Back in 2021, in a joint interview, Eamonn and Ruth opened up about the love they had for their “adorable” Maggie and how she helped them through tough times.

She’s just adorable,” Ruth told The Telegraph at the time. “We love her so much.

You come home and you’ve had a tough day, a long day, whatever, and I see her and she sees me, or Eamonn.

And you see her tail going, and then she runs off, and I know it’s because she’s getting a toy from her basket to bring you. lime

“It’s just the loveliest thing. And you forget everything you were worried about, annoyed about, cross about.” During the chat, Eamonn echoed Ruth’s words about their shared love for Maggie but cryptically added: “If my wife loved me the way my dog loves me, I’d be a very happy man.” Since rescuing Maggie, the pair have been sharing many updates on social media over the years, which has kept fans happy.

Since their split, Ruth appears to be the one who has been looking after Maggie judging by her Instagram. lime
