Eamonn Holmes delights fans with rare snap of daughter

Fans couldn't get over how beautiful his daughter is

Eamonn Holmes has delighted fans with a rare photo of his daughter Rebecca.

The This Morning host spent a day out with Rebecca, 26, and their dog Maggie.

Rebecca is one of Eamonn’s four children. He also shares her full brothers, Declan and Niall with ex-wife Gabrielle Holmes, and half-brother Jack with wife Ruth Langsford.

Eamonn, 57, captioned the shot: “Out with two of my favourite girls. Enjoying a lovely autumn day with daughter Rebecca & lovely Maggie.”

Fans went crazy for the photo with one commenting: “Beautiful photo Eamonn!”

Another wrote: “What a very beautiful daughter you have.”

“Rebecca is beautiful,” a third added.

A fourth said: “Your daughter is beautiful!”

Eamonn very rarely shares photos of his children on social media but often gushes about what amazing kids he has.

Back in June the Irish presenter revealed the Father’s Day gift he received from his children.

Eamonn uploaded a photo of himself holding a balloon as he celebrated the special day.

He wrote:  “I bet no other Dad woke up to a Balloon as good as this!!! Thank u Dec, Becca, Niall, Jack…and Maggie 🐕 Best babies a Dad could have!”

Just a few weeks later Eamonn sent his followers wild as he shared another snap of Rebecca to celebrate her 26th birthday.

He wrote: “It’s my darling Princess Becca’s Birthday week…and her Daddy’s going to make a big fuss of her.”

Meanwhile Eamonn has been busy supporting his wife Ruth who showed off her dancing skills for the first time on Saturday’s launch of Strictly Come Dancing.

Ruth, 57, has been building up and preparing for her debut on the show for the past few months.

The Loose Women panellist looked amazing as she and dance partner Anton Du Beke took to the dance floor for their Waltz routine to This Nearly Was Mine by Seth MacFarlane.

But their routine failed to impress judge Craig Revel Horwood and the pair ended up at the bottom of the leader board.

On the night Craig told Ruth: “It really was the stumble and grab dance for me. Hopefully you’ll do better next week, darling.”

Ruth appeared upset over the comment as she said: “I tried, Craig, I tried.”

Defending his wife Eamonn shared a snap of him and Ruth at the Strictly set as he said: “She did her best but she couldn’t beat her nerves.

“I love her so much. Time to bring her home time. #Strictly.”

Awww. How can you not love Eamonn?

Despite Craig’s harsh comments Ruth had gained the support from her fans.

One commented on Eamonn’s post: “You should be very proud of her – she looked beautiful and gave it her all.”

“You looked beautiful keep going Ruth,” another added.

A third wrote: “You looked beautiful Ruth well done.”

The couple, who tied the knot in 201o, celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary earlier this year.

Ruth shared a collage of photos including a throwback to their wedding day and another of the two enjoying a date night to celebrate the occasion.

She wrote: “21 yrs together, 7th wedding anniversary tomorrow – lovely weekend celebrating with my wonderful husband @eamonnholmes ❤️💋 Thank you @ivycobhambrass for a gorgeous evening.”

Speaking about his wife shortly after they tied the knot Eamonn told Hello magazine: “Ruth was the missing jigsaw piece in my life. I was meant to be married.

“She’s a wonderful mummy to Jack, a fantastic partner both personally and professionally and now, I’m proud to say, she’s my beautiful wife.”

We love these two.
