QVC star Ruth Langsford shared a playful snap from the shopping channel's dressing rooms as her presenting co-star, Jackie Kabler, showed off a "naughty" gift. The hosts shared an image of Jackie's wall with a number of knick-knacks hung up, including a red, fluffy pair of handcuffs.
Jackie captioned the image, writing: "Tea in my @qvcuk dressing room before an evening of shows, and admiring the wonderful collection of objects on my wall. (And yes, @ruthlangsford gave me the handcuffs. If you know you know [silly face emoji])" Ruth then reshared the Instagram Story, as she explained: "For your fun box," while adding Beyonce's Naughty Girl as audio.
The risque exchange comes after reports that Ruth and her co-stars could soon be "out of a job". QVC are reportedly suffering some financial difficulties, with 900 jobs being cut in America according to USA Today. It is allegedly expected that the same could happen in the UK.
Rather than relying on its traditional TV channel, QVC is said to be undergoing a significant turnaround, aiming to become a leading force in live social shopping and expand its reach on platforms such as TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube.
A source exclusively told Express.co.uk that these big changes could mean that people may be out of work - including Ruth. They said: "A lot of us might need to consider looking for work elsewhere soon as the company keeps considering cuts, and that leaves no exceptions.
"There have been whispers that even some of the celebrity faces might have to go too, including Ruth Langsford. They seem to be looking at an overhaul of the way that things are running, including potentially having a shake-up of the faces of the channel.
"Everything is up in the air for now, so only time will tell what actually happens to everyone's jobs. While the company seems to have hope in the changes, it is a worrying time for the employees."
Ruth started working on QVC in February 2017, co-presenting Ruth Langsford's Fashion Edit alongside Jackie Kabler. Both Ruth's representatives and QVC have been approached for comment.
