At the time, Katie was seen pushing Eamonn's walking frame through the departure lounge as Eamonn followed behind in a wheelchair. He has publicly spoken about his previous health struggles, having undergone surgery in 2022 in a battle with chronic pain.

But Eamonn was seen all smiles after his break as he was officially introduced to Kate Beckinsale after years after backing each other via their Instagram platforms.

Sharing a snap of the pair to his fans and followers, the former This Morning star could be seen sporting a smart white shirt and navy blue blazer as he wrapped his arm around Kate, best known for her role in the Underworld film series, who looked gorgeous in a black and white dress that boasted a larger glittering flower motif.

Captioning the post, Eamonn wrote: "After years of being SM friends an ambition fulfilled tonight with the wonderful actress @KateBeckinsale." Fans of the former This Morning star were quick to respond, with some also defending him from the less kind comments being spread.
