Dan Hatfield has been lined up to replace David Dickinson on Dickinson's Real Deal, it has been reported.
The 39-year-old is known to millions as a money saving expert on This Morning.
It's believed the legendary TV star, 81, has walked away from the ITV show in order to spend more time with his loved ones and his wife Lorne Lesley.
The antiques dealer is still thought to be filming the upcoming series of Real Deal this year, but he has decided to step down from hosting the programme after 15 seasons.
A source says he has "no intention" on giving up his career entirely but his replacement appears to be lined up.
But when he does move on, Dan - who also stars on pawnbrokers show Million Pound Pawn - could be the person to fill his boots.
According to the MailOnline, he is set to front the programme when David does call it a day.
However, a spokesperson for David told the Mirror said that moment may not be coming soon.
They said: "David has no plans to retire from Dickinson’s Real Deal, a show he still very much enjoys making, and is hugely looking forward working on the upcoming series later this month."
An ITV spokesperson said: "The current series of Dickinson’s Real Deal is in production and filming throughout spring and summer. No decisions have been made on future series beyond that."
But another showbiz insider said: "It's an open secret on Dickinson's Real Deal that David will be leaving the show after filming the upcoming series.
"He's absolutely adored fronting the show, it's been a huge success for the channel and viewers still love it 16 years after it launched.
"David's had such an incredible career in Showbiz so far and has no intention of quitting TV for good and is still open to exploring further opportunities."
David previously fronted BBC's rival antiques show Bargain Hunt from 2000 until 2004, but begin his stint on ITV hosting Dickinson's Real Deal since 2006.
The speculation surrounding David's position on the ITV show comes as it's revealed Dickinson's Real Deal expert Cheryl Hakeney has quit her job on the ITV show to work with her Love Island daughter.
Cheryl regularly appears alongside David on the ITV lunchtime show, where she parts with her cash to buy some of the public's best offerings of antique items they've found in their home.
