Eamonn Holmes had a major talking to by wife Ruth Langsford on This Morning after he downed an alcoholic Mojito live on air.
The ITV presenters were trying out the best cocktails in a can in the wake of Dianne Abbott’s train drinking scandal when things took a turn.
Before they had the takeaway tipples, Ruth warned her husband that producers would need someone on “standby” as Eamonn doesn’t normally enjoy a drink.
Alice Beer gave the pair the £2 Marks and Spencer’s Mojito to try, which went down very well with Eamonn – a little too well for his wife’s liking.
The presenter started off slowly then tipped his head back and started to chug the beverage live on air.
Suddenly realising what he was doing, Alice shouted: “Is he going to drink that down in one. Stop him!”
A shocked Ruth then turned to see her husband chugging the drink and exclaimed: “Don’t!
“You know what you’re like. You show off and then you’ll get a headache and complain to me. He doesn’t understand drink.”
Eamonn quickly added: “Unlike Ruth who is totally used to it.”
Ruth claimed she was used to a drink and was “very measured”, unlike her husband.
This Morning viewers took to Twitter after watching the boozy segment to poke fun at the bickering pair.
One viewer said: “Eamon chugging that mojito in a can on # ThisMorning and getting told off by Ruth because he’ll get a headache is absolute marriage goals”
“I love it when Ruth tells Eammon off,” added another.
A third said: “They will be drunk soon”.
