The dad-of-four posted a sweet photo which showed the presenter posing next to his youngest child Jack, 18, who left for university last month.

In the picture, the two men sat side-by-side in a restaurant and smiled at the camera as Eamonn leaned an arm on his son's shoulder.
Both Eamonn and his son looked happy and relaxed, but as the star reflected in the caption, due to the pandemic, it has been a while since he has been able to see his youngest.

The This Morning co-host also expressed regret that he couldn't catch up with other close family and friends.
Eamonn wrote: "Missing my baby boy... As a matter of fact missing all my children, my Mum, my Brothers and everyone who I am close to. I'm sure u r the same." [sic]
The 60-year-old's followers were quick to agree and to share their support.
Loose Women panellist Saira Khan commented: "Family is everything [heart emoji," while presenter Lisa Snowdon added: "Sending love xxx."
