'Neither Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? nor Jeremy Clarkson have been cancelled”
Clarkson's future in the show came into question following his heavily criticised column in The Sun newspaper about Meghan Markle.
The column was ultimately deleted and both The Sun and the former Top Gear host apologised after widespread backlash. On Wednesday, a spokesperson for ITV said: “As we have said for several weeks, ITV is contractually committed to a further series of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? There are no further commissioning commitments beyond that currently as is typical with such shows where we make commissioning decisions on a series by series basis.“
Clarkson, who inherited the hosting gig from Chris Tarrant in 2018, later tweeted: “So many kind messages about today’s reports. But relax. Lisa and I have not split up and I have not been sacked as host of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.”
