Controversial TV host Piers Morgan has responded following rumours that he could make a dramatic return to ITV replacing Phillip Schofield as This Morning presenter. Piers previously hosted ITV's Good Morning Britain from 2015 until 2021 alongside Susanna Reid, 52, where the duo achieved the highest ratings in the programmes history.
Schofield announced last Saturday that he was leaving This Morning after 21 years on the show. His departure came following an alleged feud with co-host Holly Willoughby.
Speculation has circled around a number of big names earmarked to replace Phil on the show. This includes Piers - but he has suggested there is a big hurdle in his way.
