Fans have been comparing This Morning presenter Ruth Langsford to late royal Princess Diana.
The ITV host, who works on the show with husband of 10 years Eamonn Holmes, took to her Instagram page with an adorable throwback photo – and she seems to be reminding fans of the nation’s beloved Princess Diana (opens in new tab).
Ruth posted a photo on her Instagram page from 19 years ago alongside one of her best friends.
And the presenter looked fabulous wearing baby pink cropped trousers with a matching blazer and pink pumps sporting a short blonde haircut.
