Holly Willoughby 'moves on' from 'toxic' This Morning claims with playful BTS snaps

Holly Willoughby tried to make peace on This Morning on Wednesday as two of the ITV show's regular guests came head to head in a debate.

It's been all change on the This Morning sofa since Phillip Schofield's exit, and now viewers have been left wondering what has happened to Holly Willoughby when she was absent from today's show. Holly has stuck around as the main host of the ITV daytime show after former co-star Phil left and has been joined by a succession of guest presenters over the last few weeks with no permanent replacement announced.

This Morning viewers were left asking 'where's Holly' after Holly Willoughby went 'missing' from the programme. The ITV daytime show returned to screens on Monday morning (June 26) but fans were in for a surprise as it wasn't the show's usual main host at the helm.

Holly Willoughby appeared to hit back at Eamonn Holmes' jibe that she "doesn't know people's names" on the set of This Morning, referring to production staff. During presenting duties on This Morning on Tuesday, Holly, 42, directly referenced one of the cameramen, named Steve, after he was almost hit in the face with a Prosecco cork by chef, Gino D'Acampo. Holly said: "Oh my god you almost got Steve in the eye! Jeez, Louise.

Holly Willoughby appeared to hit back at a claim made by Eamonn Holmes during This Morning's latest live broadcast. She has been back fronting the programme this week alongside Dermot O'Leary.

This Morning's planned programme on Tuesday (June 13) was unexpectedly delayed after viewers tuning in instead watched a breaking news announcement.

Holly Willoughby has shared a playful clip of one of her This Morning co-hosts, Dermot O'Leary as she moves on from the recent drama surrounding the show.The 42 year old mum of three took to Instagram to share a video of a very tired Dermot, 50, dunking his face into a bowl of ice and water, in a bid to wake himself up after a late night. It had previously been shown on Monday's This Morning, which the pair presented together.

Dermot O'Leary has made an unusual early appearance on This Morning as he became Holly Willoughby's latest co-host. The latter presenter has so far had Josie Gibson and Craig Doyle by her side as she started to navigate life on the programme without Phillip Schofield.

While Holly has been away on leave, Phillip Schofield quit the show “with immediate effect”, before confessing to an “unwise but not illegal” relationship with a younger staffer.

The bubbly mum-of-three's return to presenting duties was confirmed at the end of Friday's episode of This Morning, which was hosted by Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary, with Josie confirmed to fill in as co-host.

This Morning fans have heaped praise on "bubbly" Josie Gibson after she supported Holly Willoughby 's return to the hit daytime programme today.

Holly, 42, made her much-anticipated return today, 5 June, with an emotional speech that saw her fight back tears as she addressed her one time close friend Phil's shock exit.

Holly Willoughby's return to This Morning was "highly strategised" following the scandal surrounding her former co-presenter Phillip Schofield and his affair with a much younger colleague.
