Sharing a sweet clip of her mum being fussed over by her dog Maggie, Ruth penned: ‘SHE’S HOME!!! Mum is finally out of hospital! 

‘Thank you to all the nursing staff at St.Peter’s Hospital and Woking Community Hospital for taking such good care of her.’

As the dog licked her mum’s face, she added: ‘As you can see, Maggie is VERY happy to have her home!’

The star revealed she had taken her beloved mother a piece of Christmas cake to enjoy during the festive period.

Ruth has been regularly visiting Joan in the hospital after her horror fall and shared a new picture of her eating the cake with a cup of tea.

In another snap the Loose Women star was seen with her blonde tresses in a neat ponytail and wearing a khaki top as she did a crossword with Joan.

She wrote: ‘Nothing keeps her from her crosswords!’ 

Ruth also previously posted a video on Instagram sharing a glimpse of her Christmas preparations from her kitchen, updating followers on how things were going with the festive period looking slightly different for her this year. 

She told the camera: ‘Hello, this feels like déjà vu because last Christmas Eve, I think I was standing in the kitchen like this, with a roller in my hair, talking about last-minute things and how come I’m never organised and have everything done like people that are going to carol services tonight and pantos and everything’s done, and I haven’t got everything done.

‘And my mum, my mum is in hospital, to be fair, and I’ve been doing a lot of hospital visits, but that’s no excuse because, you know, I’ve had all year to prep. So I’m here, look, wrapping presents, I’ve laid the table over there, and there’s Maggie.

‘I have made my cranberry sauce today, but still some bits and bobs to do. I’ve got to wrap Maggie’s stocking from Santa. Shhh. And here I am, roller in, but I have got a glass of fizz.

‘So if I don’t get to speak to you tomorrow, Merry Christmas to you and yours. I hope you have a wonderful day, whatever you’re doing. Have a good one, and cheers.’

Ruth also showed fans the horrific bruising on her mother Joan’s face after her fall as she displayed Joan’s painful injuries.

Ruth wrote: ‘Mum’s got a right shiner after her fall! [crying face emoji] Trying to soothe it with Arnica cream’.

Keeping spirits high, she joked: ’94 years old and hardly a grey hair… I’m hoping I’ve inherited the gene!’

Ruth explained at the time of the fall that this year’s Christmas was going to be different as she looks set to spend it without her mother.

The star revealed that this isn’t the first time her mother has broken her pelvis but was hoping she would recover as well as she did last time.

Ruth wrote: ‘No dancing in my kitchen peeling the veg for my darling Mum this Christmas….she’s had a fall and fractured her pelvis!

‘She’s ok…ish, no surgery required thank goodness but she needs rest and time to heal now. She’s in hospital at the moment but I’m hoping to get her home soon.

This was Ruth’s first Christmas without Eamonn, after they announced their split in May after 14 years of marriage 

Displaying Joan’s painful injuries, Ruth wrote: ‘Mum’s got a right shiner after her fall! [crying face emoji] Trying to soothe it with Arnica cream’

‘This time last year she fell and broke her hip but recovered well…she’s a very strong woman so I’m sure she’ll recover from this too. Put’s life and what’s important into perspective eh? Happy Christmas! X x’.

MailOnline revealed Ruth and Eamonn Holmes are still only communicating through their lawyers, despite the pair’s amicable olive branch on social media last month.

Ruth appeared to accept ex husband Eamonn’s peace offering and returned the like on a post of he and a his co-host Isabel Webster as they wrapped up their final show of the year.

It comes after Eamonn issued a public display of support for ex-wife Ruth as she paid an emotional visit to her unwell mother Joan in hospital.

In his first notable contact with Ruth since their separation, the GB News presenter liked her post.

But the estranged couple’s relationship hasn’t thawed despite the cryptic move on Instagram.

Ruth’s ill-stricken mother Joan has always played an important part in Eamonn’s life, so it was important to him to like her post.

MailOnline contacted Ruth and Eamonn’s representatives for a comment.

The couple confirmed their 14-year marriage was over in June and are understood to be keen on ushering in a speedy divorce once Christmas and New Year are out of the way.

It’s understood that Eamonn and Ruth are hoping to settle their divorce imminently – with Ruth to keep their £3.5million Surrey mansion.

‘The aim is for Eamonn and Ruth to resolve their divorce as quickly as possible in the New Year,’ a source told The Sun.

‘Ruth is keen to stay in their marital home as it is where she is settled, Eamonn on the other hand wants to get out and make a fresh start. They aren’t dragging their heels and want this settled and done as quickly as possible.’

Eamonn recently sparked speculation that he is engaged to Alexander after she was spotted wearing a large ring on her engagement finger during a romantic getaway to Paris last week.

‘Eamonn has been talking openly about his plans to marry Katie and has made it clear he wants to spend the rest of his life with her,’ a source told The Sun.

‘They’re already living together and he knows it feels right. They have a very strong connection and get on very well. She has given him a real lust for life and she looks after him.’

In pictures obtained by the publication, the couple headed to the Louvre, with Alexander wearing a gold diamond ring on her engagement finger.

The counsellor was not pictured wearing the band at a Christmas carol concert in West London on December 5.

It was reported last month that Langsford has hired a ‘fierce’ divorce lawyer amid the bitter split.

As reported by The Sun, Catherine Costley has been called up by Loose Women host Ruth who seeks to end her 14-year marriage to Holmes with a financial settlement.

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.

Baroness Shackleton has also worked with A-list stars including Sir Paul McCartney, Liam Gallagher and Madonna.

She was once doused with water in court by a furious Heather Mills while representing the Beatles legend during the couple’s divorce in 2008.
