According to reports, long serving presenter Phil , 61, could be leaving the show after 21 years amid a major overhaul of the programme. It comes after recent reports of things being a bit sour between Phil and co-host Holly Willoughby as their friendship is said to have "cooled". It has sparked questions over whether he will continue on the ITV show, as some reports suggest that there will be big changes over the summer. Martin Frizell, who has been in charge of the show since 2016, could also be in line for being axed, according to staff.

Job as a presenter as she remains popular, writes the Mirror. A source told The Sun: “This Morning is preparing for some seismic changes this summer — and Phil is lined up as the first major name for the chop when his contract expires this summer." They claim it is "highly unlikely" Phil will return in September following the usual summer break. They added: “There is talk behind the scenes of Martin also being knifed as a bit of a fall guy, too — which might save some of the even more senior executives at the broadcaster if things spiral further."

Rumours have been circulating about who would replace Phil if he got axed with ITV already having a host of seasoned stars waiting in the wings.
