Early life and education

[edit]

Holmes was educated at Holy Family Primary School[4] and St Malachy's College,[2] Belfast.[4]

Career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Before entering broadcasting, Holmes worked for a Dublin-based business magazine. In 1979, he joined Ulster Television (UTV), the ITV franchise contractor for Northern Ireland, working as a host and reporter for the station's Farming Ulster programme. Afterwards, he teamed up with Ulster Television's sports reporters, Leslie Dawes (1922–2014) and Jackie Fullerton, to assist in covering sporting events in the region.

In 1982, Holmes was moved into news and current affairs reporting when he was tasked to anchor Ulster Television's flagship Good Evening Ulster programme. Holmes succeeded Gloria Hunniford, who had presented the show since its launch in 1979. Holmes was the third choice to present the programme after trial runs by news reporters Gary Gillespie and Gerry Kelly.

In addition to his news and current affairs role, Holmes has also hosted other Ulster Television productions, including Miss Northern Ireland gala specials in 1985 and 1986. With Ulster Television, he won a Hometown Radio Award. He departed in 1986 to join the BBC. At the corporation's Manchester studios, Holmes worked as a presenter on the daytime Open Air programme which was broadcast nationally on BBC1.

Television presenting

[edit]
Holmes in 2009

Holmes has presented coverage of snooker, horse racing, darts and tennis[5] on television.[6][7] He was also the presenter of ITV's coverage of the Phil Taylor vs. Raymond van Barneveld showdown at the Wembley Conference Centre in 1999.[8][9]

In 1993, Holmes started working at GMTV, hosting the first show on 1 January 1993 with Anne Davies. He had a falling-out with his subsequent co-host Anthea Turner; however, they were reunited on a BBC NI show entitled The Friday Show in 2009.

Holmes presented the BBC National Lottery game show Jet Set between 2001 and 2007.

In April 2005, he left GMTV, stating the show had run out of real news and became celebrity obsessed shortly before his departure.[10]

After leaving GMTV in April 2005, Holmes joined Sky News six months later to present the new-look Sunrise programme. He initially hosted the show with Lorna Dunkley between October 2005 and January 2007, then with Charlotte Hawkins from 2007 to 2014. Hawkins joined ITV in March 2014 and was replaced by Isabel Webster. In September 2016, Holmes announced his departure from the programme after eleven years.

Holmes presented SUDO-Q, a BBC quiz show between December 2005 and March 2007.

In 2006, Holmes began presenting ITV daytime programme This Morning on Friday mornings until 2021.

In December 2021, Holmes ended his contractual obligations with This Morning, meaning that the husband and wife duo no longer presented the show during school or bank holidays.

In 2006, Holmes hosted US game show The Rich List. In 2009, Holmes co-presented the ITV series The Feelgood Factor with Myleene Klass. He presented eight episodes of Songs of Praise from 2009 until 2014. In 2010, Holmes guest presented an episode of Have I Got News for You.

In 2014, Holmes and Ruth Langsford co-hosted a 10-part ITV daytime game show, Gift Wrapped.[11][12] In 2015, Holmes and Langsford presented a six-part factual series for Channel 5 entitled Eamonn & Ruth: How the Other Half Lives. The programme returned for a second series in September 2016 and a third in June 2017.[13]

In 2016, Holmes presented Channel 5 panel show It's Not Me, It's You. Vicky Pattison and Kelly Brook were team captains on the show.[14][15]

Holmes was one of 3 relief presenters on Good Morning Britain between 2017 and 2018.

From March 2018, Holmes co-presented Do the Right Thing with Ruth Langsford on Channel 5.

In December 2021 it was announced that Holmes was joining GB News, where he began presenting its new breakfast show alongside Isabel Webster from 4 January 2022.[16] "Our breakfast show probably has declared independence from the rest of the channel and Isabel and I do it the way we do it – as journalists," he later said. "We have a relaxed approach and try to bend the rules when we can. GB News has been very welcoming – it's nice to be appreciated."[17]

in February 2020, Holmes lost a First Tier Tribunal (FTT) appeal regarding his status as a freelancer under IR35 rules, with the judge determining his contract with ITV's This Morning programme amounted to employment. Giving evidence in the proceedings, Holmes described himself as "..one of the best live television presenters in the country."[18][19]

Other television work

[edit]

In 2001, Holmes appeared on Lily Savage's Blankety Blank.[20][21] In 2013, Holmes was a judge on the CBBC Blue Peter talent search for a new presenter, Blue Peter – You Decide.

Holmes has made four appearances on the long-running game show Who Wants to be a Millionaire?. The first time, he played with Alex Ferguson on 25 December 2004. On 25 August and 1 September 2007, he played with Kay Burley. On 20 May 2012, he returned with Ruth Langsford by his side. Finally, on 19 December 2013, to celebrate the end of Millionaire on ITV, Holmes re-appeared on the show with Alex Ferguson. Holmes has also appeared on celebrity editions of game shows including Fifteen to One, Call My Bluff, All Star Mr & Mrs, Tipping Point: Lucky Stars, Catchphrase and The Chase.

Holmes has also made regular appearances on Big Brother's Bit on the Side[22] and in 2015, he was heavily tipped as a housemate for Celebrity Big Brother 16.[23] He has been a panellist on numerous episodes of Through the Keyhole and appeared in ITV's Guess the Star in 2017. Since November 2017, he has provided the voiceover for Biggleton on CBeebies.

On 19 September 2021, Eamonn Holmes was interviewed by Joe Duffy on The Meaning of Life on RTÉ One (part of RTÉ Television) in Ireland.[19]

Radio

[edit]

Holmes' foray into radio broadcasting was at Downtown Radio, Northern Ireland's first commercial independent radio station, in the late 1980s.

From around 2003, Holmes presented The Eamonn Holmes Show on Radio 5 Live on Saturday mornings between 9 and 11 am for 6 years, last airing on 30 May 2009 as Holmes' contract with the BBC was not renewed.[24] In 2005, Holmes hosted his own programme on London radio station Magic 105.4.[25]

For a few weeks in 2008, Holmes took over Michael Parkinson's Sunday morning show on Radio 2.[25]

In 2016, Holmes presented his own radio show on talkRADIO. The show was called Let's Talk With Eamonn Holmes and was broadcast on Saturdays from 6 am to 8 am and Sundays from 11 am to 1 pm.[26][27]

From January 2018 till February 2020, Holmes presented the weekday drivetime show on talkRADIO.[28]

Other work

[edit]

Holmes writes a column for The People newspaper.[29] His autobiography was released in May 2006.[30] The autobiography is called This is MY Life, a reference to another famous Irish Eamonn – Eamonn Andrews, after whom he was named.[25][31] The book reveals some of what occurred behind the scenes during his tenure at GMTV.[31]

Controversies

[edit]

In November 2009, Jon Culshaw appeared as Holmes on The Impressions Show in a series of three comedy sketches in which he was portrayed as having an appetite so uncontrollable that he eats a sofa, flowers and even a guest (Frankie Dettori), using the catchphrase 'I was fierce hungry, so I was'. Although Holmes had interviewed Culshaw and his co-star Debra Stephenson on This Morning to promote the show,[32] after the programme aired the presenter instructed his lawyers to send a letter of complaint to the BBC.[33] The letter resulted in an apology from the BBC along with a withdrawal of any future comedy sketches featuring Holmes.[34] Both the complaint itself and the outcome of Holmes's legal action drew generally unfavourable criticism from media observers and online commentators.[35][36][37]

While presenting This Morning in October 2011, Holmes described singer Jonathan Wilkes as "retarded" on air. He later apologised after complaints and calls for him to be sacked. Holmes said: "I have to say sorry to three or four of you who are upset because I used the word retarded. You seem to have taken it personally or think I am being insulting. I would never want to do that. There is this man who has an autistic child and said I insulted his child. I would never use it in that context. Sorry if that caused you offence".[38][39]

In October 2011, Holmes provoked criticism by suggesting that a rape victim should take taxis in the future, leading to accusations of victim blaming. A spokeswoman for ITV said: "Eamonn was in no way suggesting that the victim was in any way to blame for this horrific attack. His interview was carried out with the utmost care and compassion and his comments were intended to highlight safety advice."[40]

In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Holmes cause controversy by refusing to discount conspiracy theories linking 5G telecommunications masts to COVID-19. He stated: "It's very easy to say it is not true because it suits the state narrative."[41]

Personal life

[edit]

In 1985, Holmes married his first wife, Gabrielle Holmes, with whom he has three children, Declan, Rebecca and Niall. They separated in 1994, due to Holmes' father's death and Holmes' journalism career taking a toll on their marriage.[42]

On 26 June 2010, Holmes married Ruth Langsford at Elvetham Hall, near Hartley Wintney, Hampshire.[42] Together, they have one son, Jack. The couple sold exclusive rights to report on the wedding ceremony and the reception to Hello! magazine in a deal that saw the publication feature the event over two issues, in July 2010.[43]

In 2006, Holmes was awarded an honorary degree by Queen's University Belfast.[2][44] He has also received an honorary degree from the University of Staffordshire.[45]

Holmes is a supporter of Manchester United.[46] In December 2005, he opened the eulogies at the funeral of Northern Irish footballer George Best.[47]

Holmes and Langsford are patrons of Dogs Trust.[48] and the couple adopted their dog, Maggie from the charity in 2011.[49] In 2014, the couple supported the Dementia Friends campaign, which is an Alzheimer's Society initiative.[50]

In April 2015, Holmes became a celebrity ambassador for the children's charity, Variety GB.[51][52] In January 2016, he became a patron of Northern Ireland Kidney Patients' Association.[53] In March 2020, he and Langsford became patrons of The Amy May Trust.

In 2018 the Twitter accounts of both Holmes and Louis Theroux were targeted by Insinia Security[who?] to highlight a longstanding security flaw in Twitter's system.[54]

On 26 October 2021, Holmes said that he had tested positive for COVID-19; he was fully vaccinated.[55]

In October 2022, whilst at home, Holmes suffered a fall. This resulted in a broken bone which, as he described, was "sticking out of his shoulder". He was told to take four months off from his work as a presenter at the breakfast show on GB News.[56] He returned to work at GB News in February 2023.

In May 2024, Holmes and Langsford announced their plans to divorce after 14 years of marriage.[57] Later that year, Holmes discussed a series of health difficulties he had had, including spinal surgery and a double hip replacement, as well as severe back pain that had left him requiring a wheelchair.[58][59]
