Now, she says she has no grandchildren. Ouch.” “Exactly, I thought that was a bit disrespectful of her to say that,” quipped another.
While one viewer highlighted: “Ruth saying she doesn't have grandchildren when she has step-grandkids on Eamonn's side, I thought that was a bit mean.” Earlier this year, Eamonn and Ruth announced they had decided to separate .
