He uploaded a snap of him with his three sons, Albert, 19, Spencer, 27, and Stanley, 23, who he has with wife Marion stood beside the sea and captioned it, 'Peg-leg. (nothing like tearing a tendon on Day 2 of a 6-week holiday).'

Hopefully the injury would make Piers slow down and put his feet up but as a man who likes to enjoy cricket and golf, it doesn't look like he will let the crutches hold him back.

Fans have been mixed with their messages of sympathy. One wrote, 'Man Up' and another put, 'Hope you didn't go cheap on holiday insurance' while a third added, 'Hope it gets better soon Piers enjoy the rest of your holiday.'

So far on his holiday he's enjoyed lunch with two of his sons - for the first time in 120 days and also bumped into Dame Joan Collins while eating at Club 55. Obviously Piers couldn't resist joining her for a photo, which he cheekily captioned, 'Don't you wish someone looked at you the way Dame Joan looks at me?'
