This Morning stars have addressed claims that there is a "toxic" atmosphere behind the scenes on the ITV show.
Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary directly broached the subject at the top of Monday's show as regular contributor Giles Brandeth blasted the ongoing rumours on the back of the drama which is surrounding Phillip Schofield's exit on Friday after more than 20 years on camera.
Dermot said: "We know we have been in the news at the moment. But just from both of us, and the whole team here, the crew, the guys downstairs, we love making this show for all of you."
