Eamonn Holmes takes ANOTHER jab at ITV and Phillip Schofield as fans slam his 'attacks'

Eamonn Holmes has taken yet another jibe at ITV in his latest social media post, to his fans disappointment.

The broadcaster, 63, has been slammed by his followers over his recent upload as he made a cryptic dig about his former employers.

The former This Morning host hasn't been keeping his thoughts to himself following Phillip Schofield's departure from the show.

Eamonn has had a long-running feud with Phil, and after the 61-year-old announced his departure from This Morning, followed by his bombshell confession that he had an affair with a young male employee, Eamonn has frequently criticised his former colleague in a series of vicious rants.

Fans have previously accused him of taking it too far, and pleaded with him to stop his personal attacks.

Yet Eamonn has appeared to continue his tirade as he took to Instagram to ask for nominations.

The GB News host is up for a National Reality TV Award alongside his co-star Isabel Webster for their breakfast show.

Eamonn posted an image of him and Isabel as he wrote: "Let's face it ... It doesn't get more real than us !

"Your support for Isabel and me would be greatly appreciated ! Thanks in advance .. Vote via the website if u can."

The post didn't go down well with fans as one said: "You’ve got to be joking, I rather vote for Phil than you, you are a bully!!"

"If as he says he's so good then why is he begging for votes! Ealmon you've gone down hugely in my esteem, especially about your attacks on a fellow presenter," commented another.

Someone else added: "I’m really disappointed too in the recent behaviour and unnecessary comments. Contributing to the persecution of another person, I Don’t feel a vote is really deserved at the minute. Shame for Isabelle though."

"Disappointed in how Eamon Holmes has been so, vitriolic recently," wrote a fourth.

During Monday’s show on GB News, the 63-year-old launched into a furious tirade against the This Morning presenter, and invited people to get in touch if they had “kissed Phillip Schofield ”.

“I put it to anyone watching today that if you have kissed Phillip Schofield let us know. Let us see if that figure of one grows to the figure that I believe it is probably at,” Eamonn fumed.

“He’s admitted he is a liar. You should see the emails, the texts and the messages I’ve been sent over the past week. I think he’s getting off very very lucky,” the Belfast-born presenter added.

“Like everybody else he lied to me, I was happy to stand by him until I found out that he was lying... This isn’t about him being gay, not in the slightest,” Eamonn insisted.

Yet fans called for him to stop making comments about Phil as one wrote: “I can’t believe people talk this way about another human being the way they do in this cowardly anonymous way, it’s still bullying.

“He has made a mistake and we are all allowed to be forgiven.”

“It’s disgusting and frightening the way he has spouted off,” another added, as they accused Eamonn of “being mad at ITV ”.
