Ruth Langsford, 65, returned to television on Tuesday, November 4, co-hosting Loose Women alongside GK Barry, Denise Welch, and Jane Moore. During the show, she addressed circulating speculation about her relationship status following a viral image featuring her and an unidentified man.
The broadcaster revealed that the photo was artificially generated and confirmed she is currently single. She expressed surprise, saying:
“Unknown to me, apparently I have a man. I don't know who the woman in the bobble hat is because it is clearly not me and I'm not sure who that man is.”
Co-presenter Denise Welch added:
“I thought that was you but in AI. It is you in AI.”
Ruth responded:
“Well it's something... They've done something to it.”
The image was shared alongside a made-up article describing how the fictional couple met. Referring to the article, Ruth noted:
“The full story girls is heartbreak, closure and a love that came full circle.”
She also mentioned how friends had been calling to ask about the supposed new romance:
“Apparently, according to the article that is all over Facebook or something because friends kept ringing me up and going 'have you got a new man that you haven't told us about' I said 'no.'”
Ruth Langsford publicly dispelled rumours about a new relationship, clarifying that an AI-generated image caused confusion but she remains single.
