After 20 years on the show, former host Phillip Schofield announced his immediate departure from ITV's This Morning.
In a statement, released on Saturday (May 20), the presenter announced that after two decades he had quit the show. He confirmed he had presented his final episode on Thursday, May 18.
The announcement came amid rumours of a feud between the co-hosts, but Phillip will continue to present peak time shows for ITV including next month’s The British Soap Awards and a new prime time series. First launching in 1988, This Morning was originally hosted by husband and wife Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan.
