Eamonn Holmes has sparked major concern with viewers after being forced to leave his live show early today (2 July).

Last week, the 64-year-old presenter opened up about his recent split from Loose Women's Ruth Langsford, 64, back in July, admitting: "I’m not OK. This is not a good time at all."

Speaking at the TRIC Awards, where he was nominated in the Best News Presenter category, as well as Best News Broadcast, Eamonn looked back on their 14-year marriage adding: "It’s too early to say but I hope we can still be friends."

Eamonn has been struggling with chronic pain for quite some time now ever since he slipped three discs back in 2021 and lost 'full mobility'.

He needed a wheelchair to attend the ceremony where he admitted to the Mirror it feels as it he was on 'borrowed time'.

He has also suffered several health issues in recent years before he and Ruth announced their divorce.

Explaining why he decided to attend the ceremony, he told the audience: "I wasn’t going to come, but I’ve got this new chair with all these gadgets.

"I had an operation a year and a half ago, and two things went wrong so I have two things in my back I don’t want. So I’ll happily accept this."

Earlier this year, Eamonn opened up about his health struggles.

"It's as if somebody up there is playing with my life," he shared. "In the past year I've had an operation on my back which went wrong and has confined me to a wheelchair.

"I've fallen and broken my shoulder. Honestly you could not make it up."

He added: "I have tried every treatment, but you go. Maybe I'll never get out of it, which is a harsh reality to face."

The latest update surrounding the GB News host saw him forced to leave the breakfast show with Isabel Webster halfway through after feeling under the weather.

A spokesperson for GB News told MailOnline that the star was forced to leave early due to ill health, explaining: "Eamonn had to finish a little earlier today as he was feeling unwell. He hopes to be back tomorrow."

Tyla has reached out to GB News for comment.

The TV host previously addressed his split from Ruth, thanking viewers for their support.

He told viewers: "Just before we move on we'd just like to thank people for your support for Ruth and I over the last few days as to the news of our separation.

"Your support for both of us is very much appreciated."

The pair had been together for 27 years and married for almost 14.
