Eamonn Holmes returned to GB News this morning to give an update about his health after going under the knife following an 18-month battle with chronic pain. The 62-year-old caught up with his co-star Isabel Webster, 39, as he recovers at home. Taking to social media ahead of his return as a guest, he told fans it was his co-star’s concerns that made him finally go under the knife.
The presenter shared a picture of him clutching his cane as he held onto Isabel’s shoulder.
He told fans he had to undergo the operation after struggling to walk alone during filming for the Queen’s funeral.
On Twitter, he commented: “Live at 8.45 am on #GBNews… How by helping me walk, my presenting partner @IsabelWebster_ convinced me to have an operation on my back a week ago today. Hope u can tune in.”
Eamonn was flooded with many well wishes from fans on his social media pages.

He went on to say that what viewers didn’t realise is that where they were sitting for the coverage was a struggle for him to get to.
“It took a lot out of me, I have to say,” he admitted.
Eamonn added it was “humiliating” having to rely on a producer to get him around the set, as well as his “dearest friend” Isabel.
“She was my crutch and it was quite embarrassing,” he told viewers.
“Then on the last day my lovely friend Isabel had to walk me a fair distance.”
“We were up against the crowd arm in arm,” she chimed in. “It was a long walk.”
He went on to tell Isabel: “You’re one of my dearest friends in life, you go above and beyond your call of duty.
“It’s humiliating for me, you took me through that crowd forever and ever.”
Eamonn went on to tell viewers he will find out next week if his surgery has been a success or not.
