This Morning viewing figures surge by almost 100,000 in just a week after Phillip Schofield’s shock exit

This Morning has seen a surge in viewing figures, despite speculation swirling regarding the future of the show and the notable absence of both Holly Willoughby and long-term co-host Phillip Schofield.

Holly is on a planned break over the half-term break, whilst Phillip announced his permanent departure from the show over a week ago on May 20, after rumours emerged that he and Willoughby’s friendship was ‘under strain’.
