It was announced that she'll be taking over from Ant McPartlin on this year's I'm A Celebrity.
And now Holly Willoughby has hinted at who might be replacing her on This Morning as she travels to Australia with Declan Donnelly.
Appearing on Good Morning Britain alongside BFF Phillip Schofield, the telly star admitted that she already knows who will be sitting on the sofa while shes away.
Holly, 37, told Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid, “We do [know who it is]… Hes in very capable hands. Whenever I leave him, I want to make sure hes looked after.”
Phil, 56, then added, “I will miss you horribly, but its telly – easy come, easy go.”
Theres already been some online speculation over who might be taking the reigns on This Morning, with the likes of Hollys Celebrity Juice pal Ferne Cotton and presenting regular Amanda Holden being thrown into the mix. How exciting!
Holly and Dec, 43, will be presenting Im a Celebrity when it returns to ITV in November as Ant takes some time out following a drink driving charge in April.
Phil also revealed that his on-screen partner had rung him up and asked his advice on whether she should take the job in Australia.
Piers, 53, asked, “You two have been joined at the televisual hip for a long time. Youre being separated in a TV separation, because youre [Holly] going to the jungle. How do you both feel about it? Is it weird?
“Because if it was Susanna, how would I feel? I would be distraught up until the moment they tell me Keeley Hawes is taking over.”
Phil explained, “Holly phoned me up. She said, Ive been offered this, what do you think? I said, you have to take it, it is amazing!
He then joked, “Holly cant handle a fly coming at her… So Australia, where everything kills you….”
“I know, its going to be a complete disaster, but Im doing it and Im excited by it,” she replied. “Leaving Phil at any point is horrible any way.”
