Taking to Instagram, he told fans: "Peg-leg. (nothing like tearing a tendon on Day 2 of a 6-week holiday)."

But it looks like his three sons are helping to look after their dear old dad.

He was surrounded by Spencer, Stanley and Bertie in the snap he shared.

Earlier this week Piers enjoyed a boozy lunch with his sons and Hollywood legend Joan Collins on his luxury St. Tropez holiday.

He enjoyed his last day at Good Morning Britain over a week ago and of his lengthy summer break.

Taking to his Instagram page, Piers shared envy-inducing snaps with his followers.

In the first, the presenter has tagged swanky restaurant Club 55, and is sitting with his arm around oldest son Spencer.

In turn, 27-year-old Spencer has his own arm around younger brother Stanley, 23, with all three men donning sunglasses as they smile at the camera while holding a glass of wine.

They appear to be making the most of the food on offer, with toasted sandwiches also in view.

Piers had previously been vocal about lockdown regulations banning him from spending time with his older sons, with the star also dad to 19-year-old Bertie, and eight-year-old Elise who still live with him.

He even joked that he'd hire them as his cleaners when government guidelines allowed house staff to return to work, but prevented families in separate households from meeting together.

Clearly enjoying the long-awaited reunion with his boys, Piers captioned the sweet snap: "First lunch with my sons (2/3 of them anyway) in 120 days - and can’t think of a better place to have it."

Spencer shared the same photo to his own page, adding: "We’re back in the game".

While in the coastal French town, Piers has also been spending quality time with 87-year-old actress Joan Collins.

He shared a second picture from his lunch alongside the star, who is wearing an oversized sun hat and patterned dress.

She's smiling at her pal in the photo, also raising a glass of booze to the camera.

Piers cheekily captioned the post: ";Don’t you wish someone looked at you the way Dame Joan looks at me?"

Despite not breaking any rules to travel abroad, and wearing a face mask on his short flight to France, Piers has been branded a ";hypocrite" for taking the holiday by some critics.
