GB news presenter Eamonn Holmes and his girlfriend, Katie Alexander, have gone Instagram official after months of low-key holidays and date nights. Katie, 43, who is a marriage counsellor, took to her Instagram page to share a reel of her recent day out with the 65-year-old former ITV presenter as they went to a park.
With The Levellers' song What a Beautiful Day playing over it, Katie, captioned selection of photos: "Lovely weather…. Lovely company," along with the sun emoji. In one photo, Katie rested her chin on Eamonn's shoulders as they posed for the camera. Both rocked sunglasses as they soaked up the sunshine.

Another showed the blonde beauty rocking a polka dot dress as she posed in the sunshine with her pooch, Dottie, and Eamonn, who was in a wheelchair. The new snaps came not long after it was claimed their relationship could already be in trouble.
It was thought that the new couple could be facing some issues as Katie reportedly refused to move in with Eamonn. The marriage counsellor chose to stay living in Yorkshire due to co-parenting her two teenagers with her ex-husband.
This meant that she wouldn't be moving to London to spend more time with Eamonn, who now lives in a penthouse flat in Kingston after moving out of his house he shared with Ruth Langsford.

Eamonn and Ruth were together for 14 years before they called time on their relationship last spring. The former couple had been together since 1996 and married since 2010.
The pair have been quiet about their split but it was reported that the the divorce has been "very painful" for Ruth.
‌
Ruth previously opened up about the split in rare comments about the break-up as she told Woman and Home Magazine: "A break-up of a relationship is hard enough for anybody to deal with.
"A divorce is very difficult and it’s very painful, but most people don’t have to do it in the public eye, with everybody having an opinion about you and writing things about you and commenting things about you.
"But that’s the nature of my job. I’ve always had that and if you can’t cope with that, you shouldn’t be doing this job. I’m quite fine being on my own, but not forever.

"When you’re in a relationship, it’s easy to say, 'Great, I’ve got a weekend to myself,' but when you think that might be every weekend, it’s a different story."
The former This Morning power couple released a blunt statement last May as they announced their split, which said: "Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing."
