This Morning's Holly Willoughby and Craig Doyle force 'rethink' on ITV show's future

This Morning viewers are admitting to having a major 'rethink' on who should be the full time hosts of the show going forward, as Holly Willoughby and Craig Doyle one to the end of their second week of presenting together.

Just a few months ago, Holly would have assumed that Phillip Schofield would continue to be her main co-host on the daytime programme, but the situation changed drastically over the course of a very dramatic week, which firstly saw Phillip announce he was leaving This Morning in an Instagram post, before then departing ITV altogether a week later, when he gave a statement admitting to an affair with a much younger runner on the show he'd fronted for 21 years.

Holly took an extended leave of absence as controversy surrounding, her, Phillip and This Morning itself, before returning to the studio and telling fans she felt 'troubled and let down' by what had gone on, while assuring people watching at home that she and her colleagues would work hard to bring back 'the magic;' the show was famous for.
