Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield will not be on This Morning

Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield have been replaced this week on This Morning.

Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford step in for the pair whilst they take a well-deserved week off.

Their replacement was confirmed by an advert for the show last week which featured on-screen moments from the programme.

The ITV voiceover said: “Hit the right note with Eamonn and Ruth next week on This Morning."

Whilst neither Holly or Phil can jet away, it is believed they will be spending time with their families at home.

Holly and Phil join Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid who are currently taking a break from Good Morning Britain.

Piers was asked by Susanna whether he was going anywhere nice during the half-term and he quipped: "I'm going upstairs."

Earlier, Piers confessed his life "hadn't changed much" since lockdown.

He said: "I can't occasionally go to restaurants or go on planes... and we can actually come to work and we've probably been working much harder than we ever had. I haven't noticed much of a change."
