EAMONN Holmes gave a pitch perfect response to fans online who accused him of faking his social media posts.
The GB News presenter, 64, posted a new snap on Instagram, pouting in a blue fleece jumper while sitting in his car.
He wrote alongside the pic: “Set off at 5.30 …. Driving through a beautiful Sunny Birmingham now.”
But fans quickly started calling him out for “lying” and “reusing” the photo having posted something similar several months ago.
“This pic is [the] same one used in July,” commented one, while another said: “Not a current photo.”
Another fan called him out for his posing skills, saying: “Seriously there comes a point in life when you shouldn’t do things anymore as we are TOO OLD and that picture is one of them.”
But Eamonn was having none of it, and minutes later shared another snap, this time munching on a bacon bap while wearing sunglasses at a service station.
“Do we REALLY need to see this ” laughed one follower, with Eamonn shooting back, “Well Dee u r the one who likes food. Only doing it because some people think I’m posting old pics!”
Others also jumped to his defence, with one fan commenting: “Eamon can’t catch a break anything he posts everyone trolls him or complains.”
The fun banter between Eamonn and his fans comes amid a sea of complaints and trolling comments after the end of his relationship to Ruth Langsford.
The pair announced they were breaking up in May after 23 years together and 14 years of marriage.
It was later revealed they had been secretly separated for up to a year before it was made public and they filed for divorce.
Since then, Ruth has been embracing a glam makeover, while Eamonn has started a new romance with 42-year-old Katie Alexander.
The pair were seen heading off on holiday to Ibiza together, with Eamonn seen in a wheelchair after years of back issues has left him in pain and struggling to walk.
Insiders suggest Ruth came up with a special brand of revenge for Eamonn wasting no time in flaunting his new relationship by removing the stairlift from their Surrey home so he couldn’t collect his things.
Both Ruth and Eamonn have since been hit with rude comments on social media as fans take sides in the increasingly messy split.
On Tuesday, Ruth hit back at a follower who called her “sad” after sharing a cooking video where she made dinner for one in a branded ad for Tesco.
“Ruth is better than this ridiculous advertising. Sad to watch.”
“Feel free to unfollow if this is making you sad,” Ruth responded.
She was also forced to explain to followers why she is still wearing her wedding ring despite her shock split from husband Eamonn.
Ruth simply explained she was “still married” and would continue to wear it until the divorce was finalised.
She has now lawyered up with “fierce” divorce attorney, Catherine Costley in order to navigate a financial settlement and officially end their marriage.
