ITV This Morning viewers worried for Holly Willoughby as she looks like she's been 'crying'

It looks like Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby could be on their way out of the This Morning studio next year, if predictions are correct.

Phillip Schofield has shared his gratitude as he was sent an anonymous letter and gift. The This Morning host was clearly bowled over as he took to Instagram to show off the surprise present which was sent to him without any indication who it was from.

Holly Willoughby was forced to change her outfit for presenting duties on This Morning at the last minute after a blunder. As she normally does, Holly, 41, had taken to Instagram to show off her outfit before going live on ITV, as she sported a pussy-bow blouse with a geometric pattern tucked into a black miniskirt, paired with tights and pointed court heels.

The chief executive of ITV has spoken out on the 'queue-gate' drama that has engulfed two of its biggest stars, Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, this week. The This Morning hosts came under fire from viewers earlier this month after being accused of skipping the queue to see the Queen lying in state.

K.J. Yossman ITV chief executive Carolyn McCall defended the network’s morning show anchors Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby over allegations that they skipped a five-mile long queue to see Queen Elizabeth II lying in state two weeks ago. Ever since Schofield and Willoughby, who host “This Morning” were seen on the live-feed of the lying-in-state, walking through Westminster Hall via the VIP line, the duo have been the subject of much criticism, particularly on social media. A petition titled ‘Axe Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby from TV’ has amassed over 75,000 signatures. Speaking at the Royal Television Society (RTS) annual convention in London on Tuesday afternoon, McCall defended Schofield and Willoughby and said that ITV had even contacted Domino’s Pizza U.K. to complain about a light-hearted tweet the pizza company had posted poking fun at the controversy.

Holly Willoughby has taken to Instagram to show support for her ITV colleague as she made her dancefloor debut on Strictly Come Dancing. On Friday This Morning presenter Holly broke her silence on social media, following the row over the queue to pay their respects to the late Queen Elizabeth II, to congratulate her friend Lisa Snowdon on being crowned winner of Celebrity MasterChef.

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield have been subject to a tirade of backlash since they 'skipped the queue' to visit the Queen lying in state. Following the public outrage, a petition to have the two sacked from their jobs as hosts on This Morning has received over 70,000 signatures. And amid the ongoing backlash, ITV bosses are said to have a "major concern" that the presenters will be booed at the forthcoming National Television awards ceremony.

ITV have denied claims Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield were heckled by crowds at Westminster Hall as they were filming a segment at the Queen’s lying-in-state last week. Joe Thompkins, 41, claimed he watched the This Morning presenting duo breeze past thousands of mourners who were waiting in line as queues to see her late majesty at Westminster Hall exceeded over five miles long.

Holly Willoughby has broken her social media silence following the backlash she faced after being falsely accused of skipping the queue to see the Queen lying in state.

There are said to be 'serious concerns' for the wellbeing of This Morning hosts Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield as controversy continues over their visit to Westminster Hall where the Queen lay in state.

Fans of This Morning have continued to share their feelings about Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield's 'queue jump' saga. It is almost a week since the hosting duo were seen inside Westminster Hall where the Queen was lying in state.

Viewers have expressed concern for Holly Willoughby as she returned to This Morning. The presenter was back at the helm of the ITV daytime show on Wednesday (September 21) alongside co-host Phillip Schofield.
