Katie Alexander moves out of Surrey flat shared with Eamonn Holmes
Katie Alexander has moved out of the rented Surrey flat she shared with Eamonn Holmes, clearing her belongings from the property on Friday while the broadcaster remains in the hospital as he recovers from a stroke. The couple, who began a relationship following Holmes’s split from estranged wife and former This Morning co-host Ruth Langsford in 2024, remain together and in love according to sources close to the situation.
Katie Alexander clears out Surrey flat after stroke hospitalisation
The 45-year-old relationship counsellor and mother of three had been splitting her time between her home in West Yorkshire and the three-bedroom, £1.3 million property in Surrey that Holmes began renting after his separation. Holmes, 66, has been hospitalised since April after being found at the flat by a carer who called a 999 emergency ambulance. A source told The Sun on Sunday that the situation is incredibly sad, noting that Alexander loved the home they made together and has been Holmes’s rock and lifeline since he fell ill, willing him to get back to full fitness.
It remains unclear where Holmes will stay upon leaving the hospital, given that he uses a wheelchair following previous health complications. Family members of the Northern Irishman are now looking after his financial affairs.
Broadcasting future remains unconfirmed amid health battles
The housing update arrives shortly after reports surfaced that Holmes would not return to host GB News’ breakfast programme, though channel executives have disputed those claims. A GB News spokesperson stated that Holmes is currently on leave and management looks forward to his return. The presenter has not appeared on the network since March 11, when an interview with Labour MP Darren Jones prompted viewer comment after Holmes appeared to fall asleep—an interpretation the broadcaster denied.
Holmes’s recent medical emergency follows a succession of health challenges that began in 2021 when he suffered three slipped discs and a dislocated pelvis. He subsequently began using a wheelchair after 2022 surgery and fractured his shoulder later that year in a staircase fall at his home.
Recent months bring hospital visits and public absence
In June, a photograph showed Holmes smiling in a hospital bed wearing sunglasses and a patient gown alongside Alexander. At that time, Holmes expressed eagerness to exchange his patient gown for a suit and tie, telling The Sun on Sunday that he would return following his break. Representatives for Katie Alexander were approached for comment regarding the move, while questions persist regarding the exact timeline for Holmes’s hospital discharge and potential return to broadcasting.
