Eamonn Holmes couldn't help but gush over his adorable dog Maggie on Thursday when he reshared a video of himself spending quality time with her.

Taking to his Instagram account, the 65-year-old posted a clip, that was originally shared in 2020, alongside his border collie pooch she shares with his ex-wife Ruth Langsford. Maggie was incredibly affectionate towards her owner, who broke into a rendition of All You Need Is Love by The Beatles. See the full video below.

Captioning the post, Eamonn wrote: "All u need is Love [love heart emoji] …. And a Rescue Dog!"

Eamonn seems to be missing her as, since news of his and Ruth's split, Maggie has been staying with the QVC star. Over the festive period, Ruth has been sharing a slew of adorable updates featuring Maggie as she took her on a number of wintry festive walks.

It's no secret how much Ruth and Eamonn adore their dog, with Ruth previously referring to her as her and Eamonn's "darling girl" in a touching video Instagram post shared back in July last year, Maggie has also made a number of TV appearances on This Morning and Loose Women since they adopted her in 2011.

Talking about his love for Maggie, Eamonn said on GB News: "My life was changed 15 years ago when I rescued a dog," he revealed, visibly moved. "I see all animals differently now."

“Do you know what the most lovable two animals are, that love people and love affection? Cows and pigs," he told co-star Nana Akua, warming to his subject.

"What do we do? We shoot them in the head and carve them up for meat and things."

The presenter added: "You can't guarantee any of that, but that's what I want most for Jack."
