In the last week, ITV flagship This Morning has been at the centre of a media storm following reports of a ‘feud’ between main hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby. On Saturday, May 20 it was announced that Phillip had stepped down from the show with immediate effect - read more about that here.
Now attention has turned to who will replace him on the show Monday to Thursday. According to bookmakers, Friday host Dermot O’Leary is a frontrunner for the top job.
The 49-year-old presenter has been working on This Morning since 2021 and is a fan favourite with viewers, who particularly like his dynamic with co-host Alison Hammond. Would you like to see him step up? Let us know in the comments.
