Alison Hammond replaces Phillip Schofield on This Morning in major show shake up
ALISON Hammond will replace Phillip Schofield on This Morning and take his place next to Holly Willoughby.
The 48-year-old confirmed she was stepping in for Monday’s This Morning with a throwback clip of her and Holly, 42, posted on Instagram.
Former Big Brother star Alison added: “See you at 10am.”
She previously revealed the change up during Friday’s show, which she co-hosts with Dermot O’Leary.
Alison told viewers: “Guess what, I’m going to be hosting. Monday, 10 o’clock, see you there!”
The news of the presenter swap-out comes not long after it was revealed Alison was being lined up as Holly’s succesor on This Morning.
A source told the Mirror: “ITV bosses are clear they want Holly to return to This Morning next year.
“But while a question mark hangs over her future, there have been conversations about who could step in if she decided to go.”
The source explained: “Top of that list is Alison. She has gone from being seen as a safe pair of hands to a real asset to the channel.”
