It will be 14 years this September since Holly Willoughby joined This Morning, but could this year be her last on the show? Bosses at ITV are thought to be worried that Holly is ready to quit her hosting role after last year’s ‘queuegate’ scandal surrounding her and her co-host Phillip Schofield visiting the late Queen Elizabeth’s lying in state. It’s rumoured that Holly, 42, is ‘frustrated’ with how ITV bosses handled the controversy – which saw a petition to have her and Phil removed from This Morning reach more than 70,000 signatures – and ‘upset’ at the fact she was left to make a statement on behalf of her and Phil on her own. While ITV did release a statement in support of the duo, Holly was said to feel let down.
The worried team are now thought to be putting together a mega deal in a desperate bid to prevent Holly from walking. But is it too little too late?
