EAMONN Holmes and ex-wife Ruth Langsford’s joint business has racked up six-figure debts, new accounts reveal.

Figures filed at Companies House today reveal Holmes & Away has to fork out £251,029 on bills. 

It owes a six-figure sum to creditors, according to the figures dated 31 March 2025, and signed off by Eamonn in January. 

All are due to be ‘repaid within a year,’ and will leave the firm, which currently holds £203,055 in assets, £47,974 in the red.

The Sun has contacted representatives for Eamonn and Ruth for comment.

It’s another blow for Eamonn, who has been grappling with ongoing health issues as well as a tax dispute with HMRC which he says has cost him £1 million.

Holmes & Away was set up by Eamonn and Ruth back in 2009.

The former couple still co-own and co-run the firm despite splitting in 2024. 

It’s the second year in a row that the business has fallen into the red. 

In 2024 it was £22,850 in the red and owed £149,115 in bills. 

It’s a long way from the firm’s heyday.

At its peak, in 2018, it held assets of £658,680 as well as £337,477 in ongoing profits. 

Efforts to end the business relationship seem to have failed, at least as at the date of the new accounts. 

For two years running accounts have stated: “These accounts are prepared on a basis other than going concern as the company has ceased trading and plans to dissolve in the next twelve months.”

Despite its intention to close, the firm still has two employees.

In addition to his troubles at Holmes & Away, Eamonn has been outperformed by Ruth in their solo business ventures. 

Figures filed last month reveal Ruth paid herself £585,000 and held £776,889 at her solo firm, Hey Ho.

Meanwhile, Eamonn’s solo business, Red White & Green, returned a £29,093 profit in the year to 31 March 2025.

Its accounts, also filed at Companies House today, report £264,778 in funds. 

Set up in 2001, it was at the centre of his £1 million tax case that saw HMRC argue he had avoided tax through the firm. 

ALICE Evans has shared the devastating news that her father has passed away – just months after losing her brother.

The actress, 57, revealed that her dad David died on Friday as she shared a heartbreaking tribute post with fans today.

Alice shared a series of throwback photos of her dad and her late mum when they were younger, along with a photo of her with her parents.

She penned: “Dear Dad, You left us on Friday. Only six months after the death of your beloved son Tony.

“Now all three of you are gone – you, Mum, Tony and it’s just me and Phil from the OG family.

“I hope the three of you are together. I hope there is a place where we get to see the people we’ve lost and that the three of you are having a blast, free from pain and the worry and anxiety and sometimes pure hell of life on earth.”

She continued: “I hope you know how much wisdom you passed on to me that I am now passing on to my girls.

“Your crazy maths problems, brain teasers, your brilliant anecdotes, encompassing both the respect you had for the incredibly high position you reached in the world of academia, and at times the absurdity of the whole system.

“You taught me to laugh. You taught me that there is humor in almost anything. You taught me to play the piano.

“You taught me not to care what people thought because ‘if you do A, they’ll say you should have done B.

“And if you do B they’ll say you should have done A’. That stayed with me forever.

“Godspeed, Dad. Give Mum and Tone the biggest hug from me.

“David Vincent Evans 27th October 1940. – 13th March 2026 RIP.”

Alice was flooded with messages of support from her followers.

One wrote: “I am so sorry for your loss!!! Sending you all my love.”

A second posted: “Oh Alice, I’m beyond sorry, my heart goes out to you. You’ve endured so much loss, but know your parents’ love and legacy live on through you. Sending you love, prayers, and compassion God bless sweetheart.”

Another added: “So sorry to hear this news. Thinking of you. My condolences. I fully understand how painful this must be right now.”

In August 2025, Alice revealed her beloved brother Tony has tragically passed away.

She had previously revealed that her brother Tony has been through a lot of trauma.

Alice shared a series of touching photos from their childhood together, as well as special moments from each other’s weddings,

She wrote in the caption: “I can’t believe I’m writing this.
On Thursday, at 6.42pm, our beloved Tone left this earth.

“My brother, my best friend, the most incredible husband to Rachel, and beloved Uncle Tone to my girls who became so close to him in these past few years thanks to the wonders of face time.

“Tony was the kindest, most loyal, funniest, warm person I could have ever hoped to have had as a sibling.

“He will leave a gaping hole in the lives of me and the girls, that I have no idea how I will fill.

“Rachel, you are the strongest person I know and this week has been hell for all of us but especially you.

“You are the most caring, beautiful person and my sister forever. You and Tone were meant for each other.

“I have never met another couple so in love and so dedicated. It’s just unthinkable that your story has to end here.

“Tone – I don’t remember life without you in it and I have no idea how to even go about trying. RIP my beautiful, perfect brother.”

It comes after Alice’s ex Ioan and his new wife Bianca welcomed their first child together in November.

The couple wrote alongside a photo of them enjoying a kiss in the hospital: “November was a biggie…  Name: Mila Mae Gruffudd.

“Birth date: 2 November 2025. Due date: 2 December 2025.

“Bubba Bear and Rocky: Absolutely smitten. Daddy & Mummy: Completely and totally in love with our tiny little angel

“Extremely grateful this thanksgiving.”

It comes more than three years after Fantastic Four star Ioan, 52, divorced British-American actress Alice, after having split in 2021.

She played Chloe Simon in the film 102 Dalmatians as-well as Esther Mikaelson in the third season of the The Vampire Diaries.

The pair officially ended their marriage amid a bitter court battle and vicious custody row over their daughters.

Hollywood star Ioan also obtained a restraining order in 2022 against Alice.

Ioan and Bianca went public with their relationship in 2021.

The couple announced they were engaged in January 2024.

He revealed he was looking forward to giving marriage another go, captioning the photo on Instagram: “The most precious thing happened…”

They married in April this year and shared a video showing their romantic wedding ceremony.

Welsh actor Ioan could be seen wiping away tears as he expressed his love to Bianca.

Weeks later, they revealed they were expecting their first child together.

A warning about ‘additional information about existing entry requirements’ has been issued

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has released new travel guidance for the USA. The update was released earlier today (Friday, March 13).

The FCDO explained that the amendment pertains to ‘additional information about existing entry requirements and new information on possible travel disruption’. It was posted on the official ‘Foreign travel advice’ page.

The most recent advice also encompasses American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and United States Virgin Islands. The website states: “There could be longer than usual queues at some US airports due to a partial US government shutdown. Check with your travel provider, departure airport or airline for the latest guidance.

“You must have the correct approval prior to travel. This will be either a valid US visa or Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA), depending on your personal circumstances and purpose of travel.

“US authorities enforce entry rules strictly. If you do not have the correct immigration status, or if you breach the terms of your entry, there is a risk you may be detained, refused entry, or removed (deported). Overstaying your permitted time in the US can also lead to detention and future bans on re-entry.

“A valid ESTA or visa does not guarantee you will be allowed to enter the US. Authorities may refuse you entry if, for example, they believe you do not plan to stay longer than permitted or have provided inaccurate or incomplete information. The US may change the conditions to travel to the US at any time without prior notice.”

The US is set to co-host the World Cup later this year, with the tournament running from 11 June to 19 July. If you’re planning a trip to the US during this period, check out the World Cup page for additional details. Further advisories include ensuring your passport is valid for the duration of your intended stay.

If your journey involves transiting through another country en route to or from the US, make sure to verify the entry requirements for that nation. Many countries only permit entry if your passport has at least six months’ validity remaining.

To gain entry or transit through the US, you’ll need either an Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA) or a visa. More information on visas can be found on the US State Department’s website.

Travellers whose gender on their passport differs from their birth-recorded sex should seek further advice from the US Embassy or a consulate in the UK.

Officials may request to examine your electronic devices, emails, text messages, and social media activity. Refusal could result in delayed or denied entry.

More information on electronic device searches can be found on the US Customs and Border Protection website.
