Ruth's adorable moments with her mum often strike a chord with many of her Instagram followers, especially after the family's heartbreaking experience during months of lockdown restrictions.

After being forced to spend months apart, the TV presenter previously revealed that she kept Joan's Christmas stocking and presents out, waiting to be opened at Ruth's family home.

"This is where it's been since Christmas…" Ruth captioned a video, showing the gifts neatly piled on a sofa. "And this is where it will stay until Mum can stay again." Eamonn's wife added a tearful emoji to her post.
