How many children do Eamonn and Ruth have?
Eamonn and Ruth share one son, 22-year-old Jack, who has a close relationship with both of his parents.
While he has some very famous parents, Jack prefers to keep his life a little more low key, and doesn't share much about his life on social media.
However both Eamonn and Ruth have spoken openly about their son, with his father giving fans an insight into his career, stating: "I think he would make a good journalist but whatever he wants to do in life is totally up to him."

Ruth also spoke to Hello! in 2019 about her son's future working life, revealing: "We wouldn't have a problem if he wanted to go into the industry, we would help him as much as we can. We have had great careers, a great life doing this, and he is very much like his dad, he's very interested in news and politics which at 17 I wasn't interested in."
It appears that Jack has gone to university, with Ruth opening up about how his move away from home impacted her. The presenter told Rosie Nixon's In a Good Place podcast: "I would say that first week of not having him at home literally felt like part of my heart had been ripped out. I kept his bedroom door shut. I remember coming home and going into his bedroom and crying."
As well as Jack, Eamonn is also father to Declan, Rebecca and Niall, from his first marriage to Gabrielle Holmes. The pair were married in 1985 but split in 1994.
Through his son Declan, Eamonn has two grandchildren, two-year-old Emilia, and baby Isabella. The proud grandfather often shares pictures with his adorable grandkids, as well as images with his elder children.
