Right at the end of the instalment, while interviewing Chief Secretary to the Prime Minister, Darren Jones MP, Eamonn looked like he had fallen asleep in the studio. 

While Ellie quizzed Darren about the Mandelson files, Eamonn had his eyes closed and then later on during the chat he picked up a pen and struggled to put the lid on it. 

Journalist Eamonn also played with his microphone and started to scroll on his mobile phone. 

After the interview finished, Eamonn told viewers: 'We'll see you bright and early again in  the morning. Whatever you are up to, have a good day!'

A source told The Sun: 'It hasn’t gone unnoticed that Eamonn has been struggling a lot more lately.

'Today he was falling asleep on air and slurring his words. There were lots of messages coming in about it.'  

Daily Mail contacted GB News for comment.

Eamonn was also joined by Harriet Scott at the charity event 

During a recent appearance on Scott Wright’s podcast, Session7, the journalist shared how he is doing right now - and opened up the daily struggles he faces in and outside of work. 

Host Scott asked him: 'What does the future hold for Eamonn Holmes?' 

Eamonn, who is currently in a relationship with Katie Alexander, 43, said: 'I don't know, society's ageist, I'm sick, I'm in a wheelchair, that's been horrendous to . 

'Certainly, I don't think TV wants to know you. I can't get up. I need help getting out of this chair. I have to have carers throughout the day.

'But once I'm sitting down, I can do everything. I understand my job, I understand what I'm supposed to do. But I understand it's tough for people to deal with you.'

He added in the podcast: 'When you're disabled, it's unbelievable how society... whether it's a theatre, a restaurant or a cinema.

'The cinema never ceases to amaze me. I love the cinema, but when you go to the cinema and you're disabled, you get two choices: you're either at the very, very, very back and beyond of the cinema, or you're right at the very front.

'And you think to yourself, why is this? Why does it have to be one or the other like that?'
