The couple will be around 500 miles apart after they die
Eamonn Holmes has revealed he and his wife Ruth Langsford’ will be laid to rest in different countries when they die. Speaking on the Let’s Start Talking podcast hosted by Loose Women presenter and friend Coleen Nolan, Eamonn explained that while he will be buried in Belfast, Ruth would rather be scattered in Surrey.
“She wants to be cremated and I don’t want to be cremated. She doesn’t care - she’s not religious, and she’s not interested in sentimentality." “And if it’s not too much to ask, no lower than a bishop conducting or maybe a cardinal, or even a monseigneur. I’d stop short of a state funeral!” says Eamonn
“I would also like a record or an Elvis impersonator to sing as the final song, Bridge Over Troubled Water. I think it is a great song to reflect on. As long as the priest finishes the Mass and we go down the aisle, we can sing it at the end.’’ “I want you there, Coleen. Because people will say was there anything between them? Why is Coleen crying so much, disproportionately to everyone else?" teases Eamonn.
