I know you are asking for regex but I just saw the regex solution and found that it is rather hard to read for those unfamiliar with regex.

I'm also using Ruby and I decided to do it with:

line_as_string.split(": ")[-1]

This does what you require and IMHO it's far more readable. For a very long string it might be inefficient. But not for this purpose.
