Speculation is mounting over who will replace Phillip Schofield as presenter of This Morning after he sensationally quit the show. Schofield, who was born in Oldham, yesterday revealed he was leaving the ITV programme after 20 years.
He said that the long running daytime show had 'become the story', and that he wanted to 'do what I can to protect the show that I love'. The announcement came after weeks of reported feuds and trouble behind the scenes.
The 61-year-old had reportedly fallen out with his co-host, Holly Willoughby, 42. ITV announced that Holly would be joined by regular members of the 'This Morning family', but it remains unclear if someone will join her fulltime, the Mirror reports.
