Ruth is clearly eager to switch up her style for her fresh start and revenge look, capturing her image boost on Instagram.

She documented her trip to the hairdresser where she had a re-fresh of her blonde extensions.

The former This Morning anchor - whose break-up with Eamonn, also 64, came to light this summer - filmed herself having fresh blonde locks put in.

Initially, the extensions reached down to her waist, yet the stylist Lauren Houghton expertly trimmed them to achieve Ruth's stylish, shoulder-length look.

It seemed the salon trip had boosted the star's spirits after the real reason for her marital split was revealed.

In her caption she wrote: "Had my extensions renewed @leobancroft salon …

"I don’t have them for length, just for extra volume after my hair got thinner in menopause.

"These are so tiny I hardly feel I have them in….but really notice the difference when I don’t!

"Thanks as always @laurenhoughtonhair for your expertise and the laughs!"
