“But life’s not easy these days. Thanks to everybody who is looking after me.”
Eamonn has previously been open about his health struggles in recent years, often using a wheelchair or crutches to get around due to mobility issues.
The GB News presenter expressed his pain following the fall but also showed gratitude to the emergency services who attended to him.
His chronic condition quickly progressed to the point where he was unable to walk without using a stick for support.
Eamonn underwent a spine and neck procedure in 2023, but it reportedly did little to alleviate his pain and has previously suffered a dislocated pelvis and three slipped disks.
While recovering from surgery, he fell down the stairs and broke his shoulder, further complicating his health problems.
The presenter has admitted that his condition has led to countless “sleepless nights” due to the pain.
Fans quickly flooded his social media with messages of support following the news of his hospital dash.
One concerned follower wrote: “Oh Eamonn, sending so much love.”
Another commented: “Ohh Eammon! Hope you recover quickly. Best wishes.”
“Get well soon Big man, less dancing more singing in the bathroom from here on,” added a third well-wisher.
A fourth fan expressed their concern, writing: “Oh no. Hope you’re okay Eamonn.”
