Eamonn Holmes showered with support as he reunites with beloved dog in sweet clip amid custody battle
Eamonn Holmes has shared a touching moment with his beloved rescue dog Maggie on Instagram and left fans delighted with their reunion.
The GB News Breakfast star posted a video showing him sitting in the front seat of his car whilst Maggie affectionately licked his ear from behind.
Eamonn can be heard singing The Beatles track “All You Need Is Love” during the heartwarming exchange.
“Ahhh that dog loves me, thank you, Maggie,” Eamonn told the camera following their day out together.
In his caption accompanying the post, he wrote: “All u need is Love … And a Rescue Dog!”
Fans were quick to respond to Eamonn’s touching post, with one commenting: “Ahh Eamonn isn’t she just so precious.”
“Well you’ve had a good wash she does love you,” another follower wrote before a third said: “Eamonn and Maggie. So lovely to see you both.”
“Aw Eamonn the love of a dog is endless,” another user penned, leaving someone else to add: “Aw unconditional love from Maggie.” (sic)
The rescue dog has been a cherished member of Eamonn’s family since 2011 when he and ex-wife Ruth Langsford adopted her.
Maggie has been described as “like a second child” to Eamonn and Langsford, even making appearances with the pair on ITV’s This Morning.
“Maggie is like a daughter to them,” a source told The Sun. “They dote on her. But she’s getting on and they know she needs stability.”
The tender moment comes amid custody arrangements for Maggie following Eamonn and Langsford’s split last May.
The former This Morning anchors’ separation resulted in Loose Women presenter Langsford maintaining primary care of their cherished pet.
The arrangement has been particularly challenging for Eamonn, with sources indicating Maggie has been a vital support during his health struggles.
Last year, the People’s Channel star paid tribute to his relationship with his pet on GB News, while making a confession about the one thing that has torn him emotionally,
“My life was changed 15 years ago when I rescued a dog,” he revealed, visibly moved. “I see all animals differently [now].
