Eamonn Holmes' son's touching Father's Day tribute

Declan Holmes, son of television presenter Eamonn Holmes, shared a heartfelt Father's Day message on Sunday, acknowledging his father's ongoing health challenges. Eamonn Holmes, 66, is currently recuperating following a stroke he experienced in April.

This health setback adds to a series of difficulties Holmes has faced, including significant mobility issues over the last two years, which he described as "horrendous." He also reportedly departed from his role on the board of the Manchester United Foundation.

Despite Eamonn's absence from social media since April, his son's tribute underscores the family's support. Declan expressed that being a father to his daughters feels like his most natural role, inspiring him to be a better man.

Holmes, who is also close with his granddaughters, shared a "Get well soon" card from them earlier this year. His recovery has been met with well wishes from colleagues at GB News, who are anticipating his return. His son previously described the stroke as a "real shock" but confirmed his father was "doing okay." The presenter has a history of health issues, including a double hip replacement in 2016 and subsequent spinal surgery for slipped discs and a dislocated pelvis, leading to ongoing reliance on mobility aids.
