This Morning viewers were in disbelief after the Phillip Schofield tribute on today's show.
Monday's episode was the first since the veteran broadcaster announced his exit. Phil quit the show amid reports that an alleged feud with Holly Willoughby has reached fever pitch.
He said: "I have always been proud to cover fascinating stories on This Morning. But recently, This Morning itself has become the story. “Throughout my career in TV – including the very difficult last few days – I have always done my best to be honourable and kind. I understand that ITV has decided the current situation can’t go on, and I want to do what I can to protect the show that I love.
