ITV issues update on Holly Willoughby's return to This Morning with show back on screen tomorrow
manchestereveningnews.co.ukITV has issued an update on the return of Holly Willoughby to This Morning after her former co-presenter Phillip Schofield quit ITV and admitted to an affair with a younger male colleague on the show.
Phillip, 61, resigned from ITV on Friday and was dropped by his talent agency after admitting to an 'unwise, but not illegal' affair.
