The Daily Mail reports that the presenter underwent an eye operation, not thought to be too serious, recently.

While the procedure was not thought to be serious, it has set the presenter back more than he hoped, according to a source speaking to the publication.

It comes not long after Holmes issued a reluctant apology to Kerry Katona after he used a slur to describe her cosmetic work.

The former Atomic Kitten singer was on air discussing work she had done to herself, when she spoke about an eyelift she underwent the previous year.

You don’t look Oriental or anything, do you?’ Eamonn questioned, stunning the TV personality into silence.

Eamonn later followed up with an apology, noting ‘apparently you’re not allowed to describe someone as looking Oriental.’

He added: ‘I don’t know how I’m going to say, does she look like someone from some other country in the east of the world… the world is ridiculous.’
