It’s been three months since Holly Willoughby stepped down from This Morning, after 14 years at the helm. She’d been holding the fort since Phillip Schofield’s dramatic departure last May, following the scandal surrounding his ‘unwise but not illegal’ affair with a younger colleague.

The programme, until the recently reported appointments of Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard, has seen a rotation of presenters – including Friday host Alison Hammond, Josie Gibson, and Craig Doyle – step in over the past few months. But with fans tiring of Alison and instead appearing to favour Emma Willis and Rylan Clark, have ITV bosses found their new Friday This Morning duo, leaving Alison out in the cold?
