Eamonn Holmes denies he and Ruth Langsford are ‘injunction couple’ after This Morning joke

The trio were discussing a new dating app, Raya, which is exclusively for public figures and was reportedly recently used by Mr Selfridge star Jeremy Piven.
“Would you not like to go on just from a curiosity point of view?” Eamonn asked Ruth, prompting a barrage of jokes about the kinds of people each of them would attract if they were single.
“I’ll have you know my Twitter feed is full of a lot of hot stuff,” Ruth insisted.
When Rylan suggested they sign up and say they’re in an open relationship, Eamonn looked to the camera and insisted: “We’re not that couple! We’re not the injunction!”

The tale of the “celebrity threesome”, about one member of a prolific couple who are reportedly in an open relationship, has been engulfing headlines in recent weeks, with press in England and Wales still unable to reveal their identities.
The names have, however, been openly reported in Scotland, the USA and online on social media.
Holly Willoughby, who fronts This Morning alongside Phillip Schofield for the first four days of the week, got into a heated debate with Daily Mirror's Kevin Maguire earlier this month whilst defending the pair’s right to privacy.
He suggested that the unnamed stars are guilty of hypocrisy by "parading" a "normal" family life whilst secretly having an open sexual relationship.

"You can still be a family person," she insisted. When he said that they have "not been living that", she hit back: "Living what? Just because it's not how you live your life!"
This Morning airs on weekdays at 10:30am on ITV.
