Some of Ruth's followers were divided in the comments given the 61-year-old opted to have two vaccinations in one day. 

"Oh gosh, that’s a lot together!" wrote one follower, while another concerned fan penned: "Blimey, two jabs same day?"

The booster vaccine is currently prioritised for people over the age of 50, for frontline health and social workers and for those most at risk of COVID-19. Ruth revealed she was called in early for her first vaccination back in February after receiving a message from the NHS.

It's been a week of celebrations for Ruth and husband Eamonn Holmes, who also enjoyed their granddaughter's Christening on Sunday.
