Ruth Langsford ‘calls in a “fierce” divorce lawyer’
Ruth Langsford has hired a ‘fierce’ divorce lawyer amid her bitter split from estranged husband Eamonn Holmes, as the GB News presenter was seen cheekily grabbing his new lover Katie Alexander’s bottom in Ibiza yesterday.
As reported by The Sun, Catherine Costley has been called up by Loose Women host Ruth, 64, who seeks to end her 14-year marriage to Eamonn, also 64, with a financial settlement.
Ms Costley is known for her fierce approach to divorce settlements and has said all women should have a ‘go bag’ fund when exiting a relationship, according to The Sun.
The divorce lawyer was once an apprentice of ‘Steel Magnolia’ Baroness Fiona Shackleton, Britain’s highest-profile divorce lawyer who famously represented Charles in his split from Diana in 1996.
Baronness Shackleton has also worked with A-list stars including Paul McCartney, Liam Gallagher and Madonna, and was once doused with water in court by a furious Heather Mills while representing the Beatles legend during the couple’s divorce in 2008.
