Eamonn Holmes rushed to hospital after suffering ‘pain he’s never felt in his life’ ahead of This Morning return
EAMONN Holmes has been rushed to hospital after suffering from “pain he’s never felt in his life” ahead of his return to This Morning next week.
The 61-year-old star asked fans to send him well-wishes as he took to his Instagram page with the worrying update today.
The TV favourite shared a photo of himself sitting in a hospital waiting room, wearing a protective face mask.
He explained in the post’s caption: “At Hospital. Pain like I’ve never felt in my life.
“Hope they discover the cause. Wish me well folks 🙏”
Eamonn was quickly inundated with messages from concerned followers – including his celebrity friends.
Dermot O’Leary wrote: “Sending love, Eamonn”, while Vicky Pattison added: “Feel better soon, Mr.”
ITV doctor Amir Khan wrote: “Sending you lots of positive vibes”, and Christine McGuinness shared: “Sending lots of love.”
The post comes one day after Eamonn opened up about living with chronic pain, telling fans: “I’m determined to beat this” at the time.
Sharing a photo of himself on a massage table, the much-loved presenter shared: “Starting the day by tackling the pain from the night before ….. On the Physio table. Chronic pain . Just can’t get it to go away.
“Sadly so many of you know the feeling. Thanks for sharing your stories. I’m determined to beat this …however much it hurts.”
The star, who underwent a double hip operation in 2016, previously revealed that he was having trouble sleeping due to the pain.
He and wife Ruth Langsford are due to return to our screens next week as they cover for Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield on This Morning during the Easter holidays.
They were left heartbroken when they lost their regular Friday slot last year, being replaced with Alison Hammond and Dermot.
However, they still take the reins during the school holidays while the regular hosts enjoy a well-earned break.
