This Morning fans thrilled as 'dream team' hosting pair confirmed

This Morning fans have rushed to comment after a "dream team" presenting pair was announced on Friday.

The programme has been hosted by Holly Willoughby and a variety of other presenters from the "This Morning family" since Phillip Schofield quit the show after more than two decades. This week was Dermot O'Leary's turn to join Holly, 42, on the iconic sofa.

Guest presenters in previous weeks have included Alison Hammond and Josie Gibson. Alison and Dermot regularly front the programme each Friday morning, as well as when Holly is away on holiday.

A permanent replacement for Mr Schofield has not yet been announced, though there is much speculation. Bookmakers' favourites include Craig Doyle and Rylan Clark.

Dermot, 50, took to Instagram on Friday to confirm he and Alison would be at the helm of the show today (Friday). He shared a photo of himself and Alison, 48, as he said: "Back with my Brummie Queen today [crown emoji]".

Fans are clearly happy that the presenters are back together for their usual Friday duties. Taking to the comments section, Melissa said: "Dream team. Should be on everyday tbh" [sic].

Daniella said: "Love you guys together on the show", while Angie said: "You two are the best!" Ella said: "My FAVES" and Jax said: "You guys are just a joy to watch, happy Friday".
