Over the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee weekend Eamonn was rushed to hospital in “excruciating pain”.

The 62-year-old was due to be on presenting duties on GB News, but had to pull out at the last minute for health reasons.

In his column for Express.co.uk , he revealed he was taken to Belfast’s Royal Victoria Hospital Spinal Injuries unit after waking up in the middle of the night in agony.

He said he “immediately knew something wasn’t right,” and it later transpired he had two prolapsed discs in his back, which required emergency surgery.

Writing on Instagram, Eamonn explained: “Many of you have been asking why I haven’t been presenting GB News for the past week.

“Unfortunately due to a reoccurrence of a long-term back condition I’ve had to undergo some unexpected hospital treatment and am following Doctor’s orders and taking a short time off.

“However, I’m looking forward to be back alongside Isabel, my Breakfast co-presenter and friend, next week.

“Even though I only joined GB News six months ago, the whole team and our amazing audience have shown me immense support which has been greatly appreciated.

He added: “I now just need some time with my family to heal and recuperate.”
