Eamonn Holmes 'doing OK' after stroke, son says
Declan Holmes says the GB News presenter is doing OK as the family keeps things steady while he recovers in hospital.
Eamonn Holmes, 66, is in hospital after suffering a stroke last week. His son Declan said they are taking it one step at a time and that the family is focused on keeping things steady as he recovers.
A statement from his employer said Holmes is responding well to treatment and remains in hospital, with details about a return to screens not yet known.
Holmes shared a message on social media along with a photo of his granddaughters, noting he will do his best to get well soon. Declan posted that the family appreciates the outpouring of support and would value privacy as they navigate what lies ahead.
The Northern Ireland-born broadcaster has been a familiar face on breakfast TV, having worked for Sky News and ITV before joining GB News in 2022.
In the past, Holmes has faced health hurdles, including spinal surgery, a double hip replacement, and mobility challenges. Colleagues and fans have rallied around him, underscoring his importance to the broadcasting team and wishing him a continued and speedy recovery.
