Eamonn to quit GMTV
 

GMTV host Eamonn Holmes is ready to quit the ITV show for the Beeb.

He is being lured by BBC1 boss Lorraine Heggessey after proving a hit on Hard Spell and The National Lottery Jet Set.

The 45-year-old has hosted GMTV since it began in 1993, but wants to spend more time with his three kids in Belfast. He is also fed up with the 4am starts.

A GMTV insider said: “There are strong rumours that Eamonn will quit when his contract is up this summer. The BBC are keen for him to present more shows.

“GMTV needs to save money on presenters’ salaries but he is still hoping for a better offer.”

GMTV said: “We are currently in contract negotiations with Eamonn.”

My campaign starts today!! They can't split up Fiona and Eamonn!!! It would not be GMTV without Fiona and Eamonn!

Yer he carries her through shows, I think she would be lost without him.

my half cousin met Eamon(Claim to fame)
Iagree it wouldnt be the same

I dont usually watch the show but i know enough to say that GMTV would'nt be the same.

It would not be the same 7am everyday would be boring without those two working together, I think they're great.

I like Eamon and Fiona's on-screen chemistry but do not really like her.

aah but Amy if he goes we might get to see Ben Sheppard replace him:shocked::love:
he's much nicer to wake up to:hugesmile:

rach no one can beat Eamonn and Fiona! I love Ben but Eamonn and Fiona are great!

My sisters married to Eamons cousin "So that's another claim to fame.. well sort of"

GMTV wouldn't be the same

No GMTV without Eamonn - like ...... without ....... (you can put in your own version).

Eamonn can brighten up the dullest morning. He really knows how to tease Fiona without being nasty at all. Who will they get to partner Fiona, but I did hear a rumour that she might be going as well. I think her contract runs out shortly, but then I could be wrong about that :conf::conf:

well if both go that would be ok I supose

No it'll be boring BBC One! I want Eamonn to stay! Did anyone catch GMTV today? I wondered if they mentioned it at all!?!?!?!?!

Scrap that was just told by my mum that Eamonn is not on GMTV on fridays!!!
