Insiders have claimed the ongoing controversy has not deterred Holly and she remains commited to the show. According to our sister site, Mirror Online, the source said: "Holly wants to stay at This Morning as long as she can, and hopes to ride out the scandal
"Other stars like Stephen Mulhern are being approached to fill in for Phil when she returns. Some are reluctant to go in and face angry viewers. Holly is determined to stay put - the only reason she would leave now is if This Morning is axed. She has absolutely no plans to leave."
Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary filled in as hosts on today's show. The hosts addressed the ongoing drama as Dermot said: "We happen to be in the news at the moment and of course we appreciate that, but just from both of us and the whole team here, the crew, the guys downstairs, we love making this show for all of you."
Alison added: "We really do and that's exactly what we're going to do. We're going to continue doing that so let's go on with our first news story."
