I'm okay. "Doing my best. Avoided surgery. But it's only been put off. It'll probably happen at some stage."I do physio most days.
I have to strengthen my back (for) when I'm not walking with a clutch or a cane. So just doing my best."Eamonn became a household name as a result of his work on morning shows, hosting GMTV for 12 years, Sky News Sunrise for 11 years and This Morning for a decade and a half.That work has continued with GB News, where he hosts the breakfast programme alongside Isabel Webster, though it involves a very early alarm clock.He explained: "I get up at 2.30am.
Leave the house at 3.30. In work at 4.40. On air at 6. It just gives me more hours in the day to do my physio." The presenter, 62, and his wife Ruth Langsford, 62, fronted the ITV show on a Friday for 15 years before being replaced by Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary in a move that shocked many.
