Holly and Phil won’t be seen again until the programme returns next year on January 6 at the earlier time of 10AM until 12.30PM. 

Their final episode before Christmas came after Phillip was accused of creating a ‘toxic atmosphere’ for his This Morning co-stars, with allegations of ongoing spats with Holly and stand-in hosts Ruth and Eamonn. 

It is claimed eight different ITV presenters have broken their silence regarding Phillip’s attitude.

A report stated the situation behind the scenes had become ‘toxic’ in recent months, with employees too scared to speak out publicly for fear of backlash.
