Devastated Holly Willoughby in 'crisis talks' with ITV bosses after queue backlash

Holly Willoughby is said to be having crisis talks with This Morning bosses after being devastated by the backlash her alleged "queue jumping" has had on viewers. The ITV presenter and her co-host Phillip Schofield were accused of getting "VIP treatment" to see Queen Elizabeth II lying-in-state at Westminster Hall last week, writes The Mirror.
The pair have vehemently denied pushing in front of mourners and said that they got through with official permission that was "strictly for reporting" as they are "accredited journalists".
On today's episode of This Morning, the presenters decided to directly address the situation where they put their loyal viewers straight on the claims. However, despite issuing a lengthy statement, it has been claimed that behind the scenes a "tearful" Holly has been devastated by the negative comments.
"Holly, in particular, has been left totally distraught by this," a source claimed. "She's been in floods of tears at some of the things she's been called and of the behaviour she's been accused of. She'd never jump a queue or behave in that way and is heartbroken that people think she would."
They added to MailOnline: "Producers and staff at This Morning are rallying round. They are a close-knit team but there is a concern at how it has impacted on Holly and has left many wondering if it's pushed her close to the exit."
ITV, Phillip's reps and Holly's reps have been contacted for comment on the situation.
During today's episode of This Morning, the duo started the show with a segment of video clips as they marked the past 10 days following the Queen's passing. They also referenced the backlash and said they went to the lying in state to show all the people who were unable to attend Westminster Hall.
