Eamonn Holmes placed on sex ban

Presenter Eamonn Holmes has been asked by doctors to refrain from having sex as he is set to undergo a double hip replacement next month.

The "This Morning" presenter, 56, is set to undergo a double hip replacement next month due to too much sex, reports dailymail.co.uk.

"I'm facing a two-week double hip operation," said Holmes, who is married to Ruth Langsford since 2010 following 13 years of a relationship together.

"The doctor says no hanky panky and no strong exercise," he added.
