ITV This Morning's Holly Willoughby mortified as Miriam Margoyles dishes out dating and style advice

Miriam Margoyles is known for speaking her mind and while many are left shocked by some of her statements others claim her as a national treasure. The 81-year-old didn't disappoint when it came to straight talking during an appearance on ITV's This Morning, leaving hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby mortified.

Sharing her advice on dating, clothes and even asking one caller if they were 'as fat' as she was, before advising them to "lose weight', she didn't hold back going on to swear live on air. Telling a story about how she never wears shorts to auditions after her agent made her promise she wouldn't in the future, she continued that people shouldn't wear what they want to work.

However, host Holly disagreed. “I think it’s very rude of person to suggest what you should wear, you should wear what you like shouldn’t you,” she said innocently. According to the Mirror, Miriam whole-heartedly disagreed.
