From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum.

While the dream team Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield remain on their summer break from This Morning, the show this week has been left in the very capable hands of ITV alumni Ruth Langsford and Ryan Clark.

No stranger to the breakfast show, Ruth and her husband Eamonn Holmes were part of the presenting team on This Morning for 15 years, stepping down from their Friday slot in November 2020. Now, she’s back and reunited with her TV show “son” and Big Brother star Rylan.

If one of the reasons you enjoy tuning in is because of the inspiration that the presenter’s outfits provide, you’ll be glad to know that Ruth is just as loved for her fashion choices as Holly, and often shares her looks on Instagram.

And for today, she’s maintained her sartorial status by “thinking pink” and donning a striking fuchsia suit with a pink tinted vest top underneath.

With hot pink and #Barbiecore everywhere at the moment, Ruth is bang on trend with her fashion-forward choice. And luckily, we’ve tracked down the exact pieces so you can shop her look.
