Vanessa Feltz went on a celebrity Weakest Link in 2006 expecting an acid-tongued remark or two from Queen of Mean Anne Robinson.

But she claims the host went too far, passing comment on her relationship with Anglo-Nigerian singer Ben Ofoedu, who became Vanessa’s fiance that year.

She claims that during the quiz Anne asked her: “Vanessa Feltz, looking the way you do, how do you think you land all these big black boyfriends?” Vanessa told the Mirror: “I said, ‘I don’t think you will use that in the show as it’s racist and also completely inaccurate and in every way unsuitable’. “And they didn’t use it.

Ruth Langsford 'earned MORE than co-stars Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield' amid row
Loose Women star Ruth Langsford took home more than her ITV colleagues Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield in 2021, even with her departure from This Morning, according to reports. Ruth hosted the show with her husband Eamonn Holmes on Fridays and during school holidays from 2006 until last December. However, Ruth 61, is apparently still making a lot of cash after exiting the popular ITV talk show. MailOnline reports that tax records from her personal company Hey Ho Ltd suggest Ruth earned £2,092,863 in 2021.The publication also claimed that Holly’s Roxy Media Ltd taxes suggest she made £1,373,695, while Phil's records indicate he earned £789,542.One source claimed that Ruth has “vast” earning power outside of This Morning, in an interview with The Sun. It comes amid a feud escalating between her husband Eamonn Holmes and Phillip, as the former hit out at the presenter and ITV in an interview.“Ruth has had the last laugh here,” they began.
