Phillip Schofield's replacement for This Morning and to permanently co-host alongside Holly Willoughby has reportedly been decided by ITV bosses and it's a fan favourite
The former presenter of the daytime show, 61, stepped down from his role before resigning from all ITV presenting duties after admitting to having an ‘unwise but not illegal’ affair with a younger male former colleague. Since his exit earlier this year, producers have been looking for his replacement to work alongside Holly Willoughby on the sofa.
"Ben did really well and the bosses loved his partnership with Holly and there was great feedback from many avenues,"insiders told MailOnline. "Ben is known throughout ITV as being very popular with the audiences of whatever shows he hosts. It comes following news that Phillip’s affair with a younger colleague will be turned into a TV drama. The rumoured show, which is said to have a working title of The Runner and will allegedly detail the fallout of Phillip’s affair and his departure, won’t be music to Holly’s ears, an expert claimed.
