Ruth Wendy Langsford (born 17 March 1960) is an English television presenter, best known for presenting numerous shows with her husband Eamonn Holmes such as This Morning (2000–present), Gift Wrapped (2014) and How the Other Half Lives (2015–present).
Langsford is also an anchor on ITV's lunchtime chat show Loose Women.
Langsford was born in Singapore to father Dennis and mother Joan. She lived in five different countries before the age of ten including Germany and North Africa.
Langsford began her career as a continuity announcer and newscaster with ITV regional station TSW in South West England. She left TSW when Westcountry Television took over the franchise on 1 January 1993, even closing down the station with fellow announcer, Ian Stirling.
From 1999 until 2002, Langsford was a regular panellist on ITV's daytime chat show Loose Women. In 2010, she returned to the show as a stand-in anchor until 2013. Langsford rejoined Loose Women on 8 January 2014 as a regular anchor.
In 2000, Langsford became a guest presenter on This Morning, and was made a regular presenter in 2006 where she co-hosted alongside Phillip Schofield. Later that year, the show introduced Eamonn Holmes to co-host with Langsford every Friday. Together they currently host This Morning on Fridays, during school holidays and when Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby are absent from the programme.
