EAMONN Holmes has left fans concerned after he ‘disappeared’ during his own programme.
The veteran TV anchor was at the helm of his breakfast show alongside his new co-star Ellie Costello.
She replaced Eamonn’s former co-host and close pal Isabel Webster who was axed by bosses just before Christmas.
However, during one segment of his programme, Eamonn was not in the studio.
After returning from the sports bulletin, the 65-year-old was not visible in shot as Ellie hosted the paper review segment solo.
Taking to social media, one viewer GB News viewer said: “Where is Eamon this morning?”
A second wrote: “Eamonn was sounding croaky just now – A&E perhaps.”
“Why do they never say why someone suddenly goes missing,” quizzed a third worried fan.
While a fourth commented: “Ellie did well there without Eamon dominating.”
Eamonn shortly returned to his desk and continued to anchor his three-hour show alongside Ellie.
The Sun has contacted GB News for comment.
Meanwhile, Eamonn recently hit back after a fan accused him of getting his former co-star Isabel sacked.
