Eamonn Holmes has taken multiple swipes at Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield over recent weeks, after they were criticised for allegedly 'skipping' the queue at the Queen's lying-in-state. GB News star Eamonn, 62, has made his opinion on the matter known and has branded the This Morning presenters "liars" and "arrogant". As he presented GB News alongside his co-anchor Isobel Webster recently, Eamonn weighed in on the queueing scandal, saying: “I’ll tell you what’s strategic.
Why is Holly fighting to keep her job, according to The Sun, but Mr Phillip isn’t?” Eamonn then read out the statement released by Holly, 41, and Phillip, 60, which defend their actions and explained that they had been working members of the media when they attended Westminster Hall. Clearly not convinced by the pair's explanation, Eamonn added: “We didn’t jump the queue, we were working. Why was your boss there working with you? “They didn’t get a fast-track, they say.
Lie.They say they didn’t pay their respects to the body. Lie. What else were they there for? Let’s just tell the truth about the whole thing.
“They messed up, and instead of being arrogant and saying, ‘We were there working as journalists,’ why don’t they just say, ‘Yeah, we thought it would be a good idea.’” The former ITV star has also liked a string of tweets slamming Holly and Phillip, including one which read: "Personally, if I have a day off and the tv is on itv, I turn it over when Phillip and holly come on. I love @EamonnHolmes and Ruth and Alison Hammond & @radioleary…," and another which called for the pair to be sacked.
