This was devastating to hear 💔
This Morning presenters Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes threatened to call the police as a terrified domestic abuse victim revealed she was fearing for her life in lockdown.
With expert agony aunt Deidre Sanders on hand to help with advice, Eamonn Holmes was left engaged with the story a caller named Louise had to share about her former partner. "He no longer hurts us physically, thankfully. However he continues his threats by holding the purse strings, withholding money. I'm on very limited benefits with two children, one who's disabled.
"It's a question of enforcement. Do try again with the police, it's just so clear-cut that they should be helping you."
