This Morning has come under fire after Alison Hammond made an unexpectedly early return to This Morning as she shared a huge announcement. Phillip Schofield was back at the helm of the ITV daytime show on Monday (April 17) for the first time in a number of weeks.
But Holly Willoughby was nowhere to be seen after her planned return with Phillip was thrown into chaos after she fell ill. In an Instagram post shared by both Holly and This Morning on Sunday (April 16), the mum-of-three confirmed her return had been hit by a setback and that she'd be away for a "few days" - or the whole week - due to being struck down by shingles.
She wrote on the distinctive green This Morning logo backdrop: "Hi ...just to let you know I may be away for the rest of the week as I have Shingles," she said with frustrated-face emoji. Holly added: "I'll be back as soon as I'm better. Huge Love."
