The 62-year-old didn't give any insight into why his return has been delayed, but last week when a fan asked: "Are you back tomorrow on GB News?" Eamonn replied: "Afraid not… Had a few setbacks in the healing process. Doing my best to get back on track. Thanks for your support."

In response to another fan sharing that she's suffered an injury falling from her bike, Eamonn gave further insight into how he's feeling, writing: "I didn't think anyone could be much worse than me… then I read your damage report! Feel so sorry for you. Look after yourself and keep taking the pain relief."
