Holly Willoughby in unguarded moment on This Morning thinking she was off camera telling Craig Doyle ‘put it down’
HOLLY Willoughby has been in hysterics all morning after getting a new co-host.
She has been fronting This Morning with Craig Doyle after returning to the programme in the wake of Phillip Schofield‘s departure.
Many fans remarked on how happy she seemed – and have called for Craig to be installed as her permanent co-host, replacing axed Phillip.
Fans even got a glimpse of the behind-the-scenes fun today after the show cut to an outside broadcast.
Josie Gibson, who fronted This Morning with Holly yesterday, began speaking from a canal boat.
However, viewers could still hear Holly and Craig, who had been discussing Spam, the processed meat, a piece of which he had in his hand.
Apparently not realising they were still on air, she was heard telling him: “Put it down” and laughing, speaking over Josie.
Cameras cut back to them briefly, with Craig – also seemingly not aware he was on camera – shown getting up on his feet.
Holly waved her hands in the air during their break from presenting, before cameras cut away from them.
Producers quickly switched back to Josie, on the Kennet and Avon canal, who had paused during the interruption.
Craig made his view on Spam clear, telling viewers: “It tastes like cat food, sorry. That’s just my opinion not yours, don’t worry about that.”
Holly is hosting This Morning with a rotating line-up of co-hosts since Phillip’s departure.
Many fans praised the latest partnership with one viewer tweeting: “Loving Craig on This Morning today with Holly. He’s definitely the No 1 choice for me to present with her.”
Another wrote: “Really couldn’t care less about This Morning or Philip or Holly… but what I will say, is that Craig Doyle was an inspired move.
“So handsome, so likeable. ITV did good for once.”
A third agreed: “Holly & Craig are just perfect together! He should definitely be given the job.”
