Eamonn Holmes asks fans to 'wish him well' in fresh health update

Eamonn Holmes has asked fans to "wish him well" as he documented his weekly struggle with a new health update. The presenter has been suffering from chronic pain over the last two years after slipping discs in his back, dislocating his pelvis, and breaking his shoulder.

Posting on Twitter, the GB News presenter told his followers: "Saturdays... I used to love them. They used to mean football."

He continued: "Now they mean Gym. Heavy rehabilitation scheduled every Saturday in particular to strengthen my legs and back to hopefully get me walking unaided again..."

Eamonn ended the post with: "But I just don't like it... Wish me well."

The television star was flooded with support, as one fan wrote: "You've got this Eamonn rehab is never fun but one day at a time, one session at a time and you'll look back in time & be proud that you stuck with it."

While another added: "You can do it! Treat yourself to something nice afterward as a reward," and a third commented: "Get well soon legend."

Eamonn has been open with his health struggles in the hopes of highlighting chronic pain. He previously suffered a dislocated pelvis and three slipped discs and last year underwent back surgery in a bid to help ease his symptoms.

However, during his recovery the 63-year-old suffered a terrible fall, fracturing his shoulder. For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
