Holly Willoughby won’t return to This Morning until 2019

Holly Willoughby has finished filming for I'm A Celebrity

It's been confirmed that Holly Willoughby will not return to This Morning until 2019 following her I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! stint.

Earlier this year it was confirmed that Holly would replace Ant McPartlin on I'm A Celeb after it came to light that he's take a year-long break from TV.

I'm A Celeb 2018 officially ended last night [9th] after Harry Redknapp was named King of the Jungle. This Morning fans were eager to see Holly back on This Morning's sofa but now her co-star Phillip Schofield has confirmed that viewers have to wait until next year to see the duo together again.

After a fan asked whether we'd see Holly on the ITV day time television show this month, the TV presenter wrote: "Nope, she can’t get back in time, the first time we’re on telly together is @dancingonice in the new year 😊"

It seems that lots of fans were gutted at the news, with one writing: "You are joking. I was so looking forward to seeing her for the last couple of days before Xmas."

Another tweeted: "Ohhhh nooooo 😣 I thought she was back for Christmas too .. what a shame... it won't be the same love your Xmas shows together... damn..."

Someone else said: "Oh no, I was looking forward to seeing you two together and talking about her jungle experience..she's been brilliant!!"

A fourth added: "Oh could you not do 1 this morning show before Christmas?! Can’t wait to see you both back together x"
