Eamonn Holmes is getting candid about his health struggles. Taking to his Instagram on Thursday, the GB News presenter shared a photo of himself during an inversion therapy session and fans were quick to offer him their support, as well as encouragement.
"Just hanging around tonight trying to put my legs right. Stretch Armstrong," he captioned the snap, which showed him strapped to a chair whilst holding on to two cords.
Friends of Ruth Langsford's husband were quick to praise him, with Jacquie Beltrao telling him he was "looking good". Candidly replying to the comment, Eamonn admitted he was "not feeling it," before telling another follower that he is only able to walk "a little".

The father-of-four previously admitted to fans that the broken shoulder was a "massive setback" in his recovery from surgery and described it as a "hellish few weeks".

"Hard to explain what this apparatus does ... but it's all about reawakening my Neuropathic connections. Slow progress ... but great dedication to me here. I'm so desperate for results," he wrote alongside the photo.

The Loose Women star opened up about her husband's struggles earlier this year on the popular ITV show.

"Then he had a back operation, which you know was always that nerve-wracking moment isn't it?

Devastatingly, Eamonn's mother Josie, 93, passed away during his health battle, with Ruth adding: "And then very sadly his mum passed away in the middle of all that so it's been a terrible time.
"It's a lot of bad luck. And these things come along, and you're like, 'Anything else?'"
