The presenter chose to post a screenshot of the poem Smile by Spike Mulligan, which has a particularly moving sentiment as the coronavirus crisis continues.

"This is so true... Smile and have a happy Saturday everyone... please pass on..." she captioned her post, after resharing it from mindset coach Gill Harvey Bush.
The original caption read: "Love Spike Milligan, and much prefer his epidemic and spreading it around. Anyone else fancy catching it and passing it on? We can choose our mood. Happy weekend everyone."

Fans quickly reacted to Ruth's sweet post, with one writing: "So true! Have a great weekend and keep smiling!" while another added: "Smile and the world smiles with you!"
Of course, many others were quick to note that due to face covering rules in the UK, we often can't see each other smiling. "Just a shame that we can no longer recognise when a stranger is smiling at us because it’s hidden behind a mask!" one commented.
