However, Eamonn – who was still wearing his wedding ring – put all thoughts of his wife behind him as he got to grips with his new love’s behind.

The broadcaster looked smitten as he gazed up at his girlfriend, who looked stunning in a leggy black mini dress.

The two were clearing heading on a night out, with Eamonn dressed up to the nines in a navy blazer, pale blue shirt and ivory trousers.

While Kate dressed to impress, teaming her thigh-skimming dress with towering heels, shades and a designer bag.

The new couple appeared very relaxed in each other’s company as they chatted and stayed close to one another during the excursion from the cruise.

Eamonn, who was in a self-drive electric wheelchair amid his crippling back problems, looked particularly enamored with the blonde beauty as he playfully grazed her behind.

The Northern Irish presenter has been open about his new relationship with the pair pictured enjoying two holidays together over the summer.

The couple flew from Heathrow Airport on Sunday morning before landing in Barcelona for a luxury holiday together.

However, a source has told MailOnline that Ruth wasn’t expecting her estranged husband to be so open about his new romance.

The insider shared: ‘Ruth is shocked by how open Eamonn is being about his relationship, after all they both still have their wedding rings on.’

‘Ruth is shocked by how open Eamonn is being about his relationship, after all they both still have their wedding rings on’

Revealing the real reason the estranged couple haven’t removed their rings, they added: ‘Neither of them want to be the first to take it off because they don’t want to look like they’re to blame for the split.’

In contrast, Eamonn is said to be ‘smitten’ with his new love.

Speaking about the presenter and Katie’s holiday plans, the source shared: ‘They both love cruises and they feel like they can be free onboard to act how they want. They are both smitten.’

When approached by MailOnline, Ruth’s representatives declined to comment and Eamonn’s representatives did not respond to comment.

The holiday comes after Katie denied claims she’s set to move in with the broadcaster.

The pair were reported to be house-hunting together just four months after their blossoming romance began.

However, Katie’s representatives have exclusively told MailOnline this is not the case.

The rumours were sparked after a source told The Sun: ‘Katie’s assured him she’s in it for the long haul and they’re both settling down nicely.’

The source shared: ‘They’ve been offered some decent money for the first pictures of them together.’

They continued: ‘Katie and Eamonn are definitely in it for the long haul. She says she loves him and he loves her.’

The pair’s friendship advanced when he moved out of the marital home he shared with Ruth after his devastated wife discovered messages between him and another mystery woman.

In May, Ruth and Eamonn were said to be in the process of divorcing’ after work commitments ‘took their marriage in different directions’.

A spokesperson for the couple said: ‘Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes have confirmed their marriage is over and they are in the process of divorcing.’

Eamonn and Ruth, who wed in 2010 after 13 years together, are ‘determined to stay friends and keep things amicable’.
