Broadcaster Eamonn Holmes has announced his departure from This Morning after 15 years.
The host is taking on a new role at GB news after leaving his position on This Morning.
Eamonn and his wife Ruth have presented This Morning on Holidays and previously Fridays for the past 15 years.
A source told The Mirror, “Eamonn’s move to GB News marks the end of an era.
“He’ll be missed by many ITV viewers but, the truth is, this job offer probably came at just the right moment for both him and ITV. All good things come to an end.”
Eamonn is said to be hosting his own show on GB News in the new year.
A source told The Sun, “The team are devastated Eamonn has quit – nobody saw this coming and now everyone is really worried about what Ruth’s next move with be, together they are arguably Britain’s best-loved presenting duo so it would be truly awful if she quit too.
“Everyone loves them on and off screen, it’s hard to imagine the show without them. The team are devastated to lose Eamonn – it’s panic stations behind the scenes.”
According to The Mirror Eamonn’s wife Ruth is “Unlikely” to remain on the show without him.
