Eamonn Holmes had to undergo an operation on his back earlier this week but he remained in high spirits when he appeared via video link on Friday’s instalment of Steph’s Packed Lunch. The Irish broadcaster was forced to take a break from presenting GB News to undergo and recover from the operation which he hopes will help alleviate the chronic pain he suffers.
Eamonn, 62, began: “I’m still here, I am still alive, it’s all still happening. It was only 48 hours ago I was on the operating table and I have to wait three weeks before I know a little more.
“I had terrible discomfort Steph, before this, and I hope this puts an end to it.
“When you talk about health matters you feel like you are the only person in the world going through them but you go on social media and start talking to certain people and realise they have so much pain.
“They feel like there is nothing they can do, but talking to people really helps.”

“I had to be with the groom and do all of that, and I just feel like I ruined his pictures and I ruined his day,” Eamonn admitted.
He said he tried to cover the shingles with makeup but claimed it made it look “even worse”.
Eamonn got shingles four years ago and shared a picture of his swollen face to his one million Twitter following after his interview on the Channel 4 chat show.
He previously told the Mirror the painful rash on his face made him look like Quasimodo.
