Eamonn Holmes has posted a touching tribute to his father on the anniversary of his passing.

The 65 year old presenter turned to Instagram on Saturday (August 23) to honour his dad on what would have marked his 100th birthday.

Posting a black and white photograph of his father, he wrote: "My Dad Leonard, had he lived, would have been 100 today. Instead he died without warning at the age of 64. I took my looks and most of my personality from Mummy... but what an influence that man had on me!".

"I think fondly about him every day, every single day. He was a joker and a prankster with a contagious work ethic and I know he lives on in me and my 4 brothers!".
