Controversial TV presenter Jeremy Clarkson has been making headlines again after rumours surfaced that the outspoken host could be axed from hosting quiz show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? However, ITV has now spoken out, clarifying their position on the rumours.
Love him or hate him, it is true to say that Clarkson speaks his mind. And, after offending with his remarks about Meghan Markle in a newspaper column, the outspoken personality put his own career in jeopardy.
Reports on Thursday, March 2, claimed that ITV boss Carolyn McCall had hinted the forthcoming season of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, which is in production, may be Clarkson's final series. The host's contract to present the show is up, according to the Mirror. The publication revealed that an ITV spokesperson had told it: "As we have said before, ITV has a further series of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? contractually commissioned [which has now recorded], and no further commissioning commitments beyond that currently."
