She hasnt decided 😂. She had to leave.

[DougieMontana]

Wouldn’t it be lovely if we could all afford to put family first.

[MrMikepeacock]

Brave, wise & courageous? Give me a break

[salmaal-shaoily]

If Holly is going to quit showbiz & stay out of the public eye for a quiet life to protect her & her family, I can see her point. But if she is going to surface on another program, what is the point?

Brave wise and courageous 😂 these millionaires don’t live on the same planet as us normal folk 😂

[Stuboy]

It was over when Philip left, as far as you viewers you must be bored out of your minds in the morning.

[droppedbye.]

She was politely ask to leave. Too much controversy around her.

Good news…I’m not a fan + have always intensely disliked Schofield. The show’s had its day, time to move on to a new + completely different format.

However…there is something the doesn’t quite add up in the Kidnap/Life threat. How can a man of such colossal size, tie his own shoelaces, let alone conduct a Kidnap…quite perplexing! 🤔

She was not popular susanah that was the problem.
Have you seen the comments on you tube.
Also why is it that she hasn't quit TV for good just the this morning programme if she's worried about her family.

[ElemennoP]

brave.. the second most abused word in the english language after sorry.. she left to distance herself from the other fella.. she'll no doubt be presenting some mindless drivel on ITV 2 before ya know it.. 🙄😂

[gregory_grey]

Susanna right now this is most definitely not a "serious topic to discuss".

[chrislayton]

I am really glad thet Holly Willoughby has stepped down from this morning as at least she is giving other female presenters a chance to present the show who will actually take the show a lot more seriously

[thecarpetman]

She’s quitting to rebrand herself…that’s all…this morning with her on it is toxic now.

[gill]

Brave and Courageous she is not people who are fighting cancer and other illnesses are Brave and Courageous over egged it with the words there Richard!...If Holly never worked again she would be OK financially!. The atrocities that are going on in the world at this minute! Enough about this woman me thinks🙄

[Sid]

Hate how ITV are pretending like people liked Holly. She covered up for her filthy silver haired side kick 😂

[angiemf]

I love it when Judy & Richard were the presenters

[keramiroberts]

Good for Holly. She's been fantastic for all ten years I've watched since becoming disabled. This Morning keeps me company when I'm trying to do house jobs.

Hope Holly can rebrand, continue with her other cool projects and feels safer.

Hope this morning continues for a long time.... It's fab and vita for those of us at home more.

I like how Madely said she always put family first and then said shortly afterwards how she has 'decided' to put family first or words to that effect. How can any individual put family first when they are presenting practically everything on TV?

[JoanneSpencerThomas]

Pushing in to see the queen’s coffin. Covered up for Phil. Brave? 😂

[JiffyHand]

Personally I think Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby should start their own TV network it is obvious they are still communicating with one another . I am still non the wiser what Phillips Schofield has done you definitely can not put him in the same category as Jimmy Savile or Gary Glitter maybe someone knows a little bit more.
