Eamonn Holmes is celebrating turning 60 in style with a life-like portrait of himself – as you do.

The This Morning presenter’s inspired work of art was so good, in fact, that you can barely tell the difference between the real Eamonn and the fake one.

(Will the real Eamonn Holmes please stand up?)

The impressive artwork was created by esteemed visual artist Colin Davidson who has created similar portraits of celebrities including Liam Neeson, Ed Sheeran, and even The Queen.

Sharing the masterpiece with his 562K followers, the TV host revealed that there was no mistaking the uncanny resemblance.

Standing next to his impressive portrait with artist Colin and wife Ruth Langsford, he captioned the pic: ‘An Honour to be interpreted at 60 by esteemed artist Colin Davidson. Thank you .

‘I had no idea how it would turn out but I think there’s no doubt that’s Me ! [sic]’

Wonderful Eamonn, now just to figure out where to put it.

Fans of the ITV presenter seemed just as impressed as him with his followers praising the detail of the painting.

One fan wrote: ‘What a great portrait for a legend of a man’

While another exclaimed: ‘This is absolutely amazing and a fabulous representation.’

One person even wrote: ‘That’s brilliant Eamonn! The Queen must be kicking herself for not commissioning Colin to do her birthday portrait now. I imagine hers is stuffed upstairs in the loft somewhere.’

Eamonn’s portrait follows a surprise birthday trip where wife Ruth whisked her hubby away to Vienna where their children were waiting for them.

The pair documented some of the magical trip, posing in front of a festive backdrop of Christmas lights and a horse-drawn carriage.

Not a bad way to celebrate at all.
