‘Feel free to unfollow’ says Ruth Langsford as she claps back at troll over ‘sad and lonely dinner’ after Eamonn split
RUTH Langsford was forced to clap back at a troll who branded her social media content "sad".
The Loose Women anchor, 64, took to Instagram to share a clip of preparing a Mediterranean-inspired dish at home and revealed it was an ad for Tesco.
Ruth often shares videos of her cooking and many fans took to the comments to praise her latest dish.
But some were less impressed, with one writing: "Ruth is better than this ridiculous advertising. Sad to watch."
Presenter Ruth hit back: "Feel free to unfollow if this is making you sad."
She was recently forced to explain to followers why she is still wearing her wedding ring despite her shock split from husband Eamonn Holmes earlier this year.

In another clip - this time showing Ruth preparing a green juice - one follower questioned why she hadn't removed the ring.
To which she replied: "Because I am still married."
And Ruth was also quick to fire back when she was branded a "show off" after taking her followers on a day out for some posh pampering.
Last month she told followers how her hairdresser's Notting Hill salon was being refurbished so her hair appointment was instead taking place at Claridge's Hotel.
Some fans were quick to blast her as a "total show off" and one added: "You are so lucky. Most people could not afford that."
But Ruth quipped: "No luck... I've worked hard for everything I have."
