Alison Hammond has been confirmed to return to This Morning on Friday, amid her apparent upset at a comment Eamonn Holmes made about her friendship with colleague Holly Willoughby.
After years of being a roving reporter and competition presenter for This Morning, Alison was handed a huge promotion on the ITV show at the start of 2021, when she and Dermot O'Leary were made full time Friday hosts, in place of Eamonn and wife Ruth Langsford; months before Eamonn then quit This Morning and ITV for good, making a switch to GB News.
Eamonn has been very vocals about both Holly and her now ex co-star Phillip Schofield over the last month, in light of the scandal surrounding Phillip and his admission of an affair with a much younger This Morning runner. He accused Phillip and Holly of 'faking' their friendship for cameras, before saying that Holly 'got what she wanted' with Phillip leaving and picking apart her statement about his exit, saying the humour and knowledge she thanked him for, were things she didn't have.
