Eamonn Holmes has opened up about living with “chronic pain”.
This Morning presenter Eamonn, 61, told fans he’s been suffering from a health issue, which comes five years after his double hip replacement.
After battling debilitating pain for 25 years, Eamonn – who is married to co-presenter Ruth Langsford – underwent a double hip operation in 2016.
But it seems as though the worst is not yet behind him as Eamonn explained that his pain gets “worse” at night.
Responding to a fan on Twitter who explained they had joint point, Eamonn gave fans an update on his own health journey.

“In that Twilight Zone between Night time and Morning,” he wrote on Twitter.
“Anyone else find these Hours the worst…. particularly if you suffer Chronic pain?”
Opening up to fans, Eamonn said his pain is much worse in the nighttime, as he asked one fan why that could be.
He penned: “Like me Night is Worse… why is that?”

The fan replied: “I have no idea, but it’s truly awful, isn’t it! So annoying, that, the time your meant to be resting and sleeping the pain is at its worse, so you’re unable to. How on earth does that work?”
Eamonn then told the fan they were “reading his mind”.
Eamonn went in for hip replacement surgery after enduring 25 years of pain in his hips, back and legs.
He previously opened up about the procedure in an exclusive chat with Daily Star, telling us: “It was a very depressing week when I had it done.

“Ruth said to me, ‘Do you have to have both of them done?’ She was worried about losing me.”
The surgery proved tough for Eamonn. “I remember I had the operation at 8am and they were giving me an epidural and they were putting a needle in my back,” he said.
“They said to me, ‘What would you normally be doing at 8am?’ And I said, ‘Reading the 8am news’.
“And then I woke up and I saw this apparition and it was this beautiful woman and it was my wife and I thought, ‘This is either heaven or hell’.”
