He wrote: “Just became a grandad for the second time at 10am this morning. Another grandchild from Jenny and Declan.”
The former Good Morning Britain star added that his family were “blessed, relieved and happy”.
The TV veteran was showered with good wishes.
One follower wrote: “What lovely news Eamonn – and congratulations Jenny & Declan.”
Another said: “Welcome to the world baby x Congratulations everyone!”
A third said: “Aww congratulations Eamonn – so lovely for you all.”
Declan and Jenny’s first child, daughter Amelia, was born in 2001, weighing 7 pounds 6 ounces.
Speaking about the arrival to wife Ruth Langsford on This Morning, an emotional Eamonn said: “I wasn’t so ready for this.”
“I am very, very happy, little Amelia!”
The latest baby news has lifted Eamonn’s spirits after a difficult year of debilitating health issues.
The TV presenter had back surgery last October after severe chronic pain.
However, just two weeks into his recovery he suffered a dramatic fall down the stairs at his villa in Weybridge, Surrey, where his wife Ruth was forced to call for medical help.
Eamonn gave fans a health update on his GB News breakfast show in September.
Speaking to his guest Tim Franklin, the former Sky News Sunrise presenter remarked: “I can’t run, I can’t walk, I can’t do anything but watch TV and eat.
“Just last year I had back problems that I haven’t recovered from. It’s not good, it’s not a good recipe, I have to say.
Turning to the panelist, he indicated that he was struggling to build the energy to heal and remarked, “You are a good motivation for all of us.
“What would you say to people out there who just don’t have that motivation?”
