Eamonn Holmes has dropped behind wife Ruth Langsford when it comes to his TV earnings.
He has picked up close to £1.3million in the last two years for his work on the box.
His firm Homes and Away Ltd paid around £265,000 in Corporation Tax from 2020.
That means his taxable income was about £1.3m for that period.
Another firm – Red White and Green Ltd – boasts assets of £774,000 but did not pay any tax last year (2021).
Eamonn, 62, co-hosted This Morning’s Friday instalment with Ruth for 15 years before leaving last year (2021) and now presents the GB News breakfast show.

Meanwhile Ruth, also 62, could claim to have taking over the mantle as breadwinner after earning around £3m in the last two years, latest accounts have revealed.
The couple have travelled the globe interviewing the world’s richest people for Channel 5 show How The Other Half Lives.
But Ruth is comfortably in the millionaire bracket in her own right.
Her ‘theatrical’ business company Hey Ho Ltd has resources of £2.3m – including £1.1m in cash.

Annual accounts filed last month show the company paid £623,111 in corporation tax since 2020.
That equates to an income of around £3m.
The balance sheet also reveals Ruth has taken £1.5m in loans from the firm.
Last year she was paid a nominal salary of £8,788.
Ruth has worked for ITV’s early show This Morning since 2000 when she appeared as a guest host.
She became permanent in 2006 as co-host with Phillip Schofield, 60, and is now the programme’s longest-serving presenter as well as a regular panellist on ITV’s lunchtime show Loose Women.
The in-demand host and TV personality also works on a string of other programmes including TV Travel Shop, Langsford Late, Zoo Story and Lose A Stone In Four Weeks for Summer.
