‘Unprofessional’ Ruth Langsford fuming after being cut off by Phillip Schofield

Ruth Langsford was left FUMING today after being awkwardly cut off by Phillip Schofield.

The Loose Women host was previewing her show when the This Morning presenter stopped her talking mid-sentence.

After introducing the panel, Ruth was revealing that Emmerdale actress Louisa Clein would be making an appearance when she was suddenly interrupted.

Phillip shouted: "Guys, we're going to have to jump in there and stop you I'm afraid because we're a bit tight for time on this end."

Open-mouthed Ruth threw her hands out in confusion as Phil added: "Thank you Ruth and we'll catch you guys a little bit later."

The pair began talking over each other in a very tense moment which left the rest of the Loose Women panel looking very uncomfortable.

Turning away from the camera, Ruth insisted: "I only had about two more words to say – don’t worry."

Phillip, who was alongside co-host Holly Willoughby, kept a smile on his face as he added: Thank you very much."

But Ruth seemed unable to hide her anger and viewers claimed she was 'seething with rage'.

She dropped her pen while her Loose Women co-stars watched on in a mix of amusement and shock.

Some viewers slammed Ruth for her reaction, but others backed the presenter and blamed Phillip.

This Morning viewers raced to Twitter after spotting how angry Ruth appeared to be.

"Ruth is f***ing fuming they got cut off," claimed one viewer.

Another added: "Ruth looks so p****d off"

"How rude of Phil to cut off the @loosewomen like that!!!! They were almost finished previewing their show anyway," argued one fan.

A fourth said: "Ohhh bit rude Ruth it’s not @Schofe fault"
