There have reportedly been tensions between This Morning hosts Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby over recent months in the ITV studios as their close friendship is said to have taken a turn.
Despite the presenting duo having fronted popular television shows together for many years, and always maintained a close relationship off-camera, it seems it could be troubled water for the pair as Phillip has admitted it "hasn't been easy."
Phillip detailed in a bombshell emotional statement on Thursday night the long-term support he has had from his pal through thick and thin at some of the toughest moments in his life, and the fact she has always been there as a "best friend" following his family going through a "real ordeal."
