Eamonn Holmes shows son Declan is his spitting image as he shares sweet throwback

Eamonn Holmes shared an adorable throwback photo that highlighted just how much his son Declan looks like him.

Alongside the photo of a fresh-faced Eamonn holding his offspring as a baby he posted a snap of Declan holding his own young daughter.

The broadcaster took to Instagram to wish Declan a happy 33rd birthday with the sweet collage.

He penned: "33 years ago he was my first born. Now he too knows the responsibility of being a Dad.

"Happy Birthday Dec. So proud of you Son x."

Step mum Ruth Langsford commented on the photo: "You only imagine this day….and here it is!"

TV personality Lizzy Cundy said: "What gorgeous pics."

And former TOWIE star Carol Wright commented: "Amazing. X"

Eamonn thrilled viewers in July 2021 when he announced that he had become a grandad.

Declan and his wife Jenny welcomed their first child Amelia into the world after the pair tied the knot in 2018.

Eamonn and his ex-wife Gabrielle had three children together, Declan, Niall, 29, and Rebecca, 31.

The pair featured on Celebrity Googlebox (Channel 4)

He said: "I'm not going to have myself derided as some sort of has-been. I may be male and pale but I'm still at the top of my game."
