Holly Willoughby is being tipped to make an 'imminent' This Morning exit, as bookies slash odds on her leaving as soon as next month.
Over the last few weeks, the ITV presenter has been at the centre of huge scandal surrounding her now ex co-star Phillip Schofield. After the presenting duo were the subject of speculation of a rumoured 'feud,' Phillip ended up leaving This Morning with immediate effect. As the news broke, Holly issued a swift statement, praising Phillip's 'knowledge and humour,' and saying the 'couch would never be the same' without him.
Phillip then hit the headlines at the end of last week, when he released a statement, admitting to an affair with a young This Morning runner, a relationship which he lied about to ITV colleagues, his agents, lawyer and family. And one of those who claim to have been lied to by Phillip is Holly. On Saturday, she took to Instagram to post: ""It's taken time to process yesterday's news.

"When reports of this relationship first surfaced, I asked Phil directly if this was true and was told it was not. It's been very hurtful to now find out that this was a lie."
Holly is still on a break from This Morning, having started her half term leave a week early and as former co-star Eamonn Holmes predicts she'll never return to the show, bookies share his opinion, with her now Evens with William Hill to leave by the end of June.
Her leaving the programme by July is 6/4, with the odds on an August departure at 4/1 and September 5/1.
William Hill spokesperson, Lee Phelps, said: “With Phillip Schofield leaving the show not long ago we don’t think Holly Willoughby will be too far behind him and we make her Evens to leave her post at This Morning in June.
“Willoughby will not be short of options upon leaving the show and it will be up to her as to when she leaves, and we could see her leaving this summer with odds of 6/4 on her to leave in July, and 4/1 for her to say goodbye to the show in August.
He added: "“It is not out of the question that she would want to see out a full final year on This Morning and we make her 2/1 to leave the show any time next year.”
