This Morning for presenter shake-up as Rylan Clark and Ruth Langsford to host in summer

This Morning fans will see a shake-up to the presenting schedule this summer.

Rylan Clark and Ruth Langsford have been confirmed as hosts for upcoming episodes, as they both make their return to the ITV daytime show.

It's been a while since either of them have presented the daytime series, but now both are back and together to replace hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield.

Fans of the show will know that over school holidays and over the summer break, Phil and Holly don't host the show.

Ruth and her husband Eamonn Holmes took over the summer episodes last year, after they were axed from their regular Friday role - but Eamonn later left the show, and moved to GB News.

There's normally a mixture of hosts taking the wheel during Holly and Phil's absence, and this summer will likely be the same.

Speaking on the show on Friday to Dermot O'Leary and Alison Hammond, Rylan confirmed he and Ruth would be doing the show.

He explained: "I am coming back for one week only, one week only with my lovely telly mum Ruth. Me and Ruthie are gonna do the show in the summer for a week. I can't say no to Ruth can I."

Whether Ruth will host more shows with another co-host is yet to be confirmed, and any other hosts will also be revealed at a later date.

Eamonn and Ruth were replaced by Alison and Dermot for the Friday episodes, and they often stand in for Holly and Phil in the week too.

Meanwhile, Rylan will make his return to Channel 4's Celebrity Gogglebox on Friday, alongside his mother Linda.

The fan favourites missed the last series as Rylan "wasn't too well", while at the time it was put down to Linda's own health issues.

After taking a break from TV and other work last year, Rylan is back and said he's in a good place.

He also joked that there were moments from filming that the pair asked Gogglebox to leave out of the final show, calling the goings on "career ending".

Rylan called his mum "the star" of the show, with Linda revealing her antics on the series have shot her to fame in her favourite pie and mash shop and elsewhere.

This Morning airs weekdays at 10am on ITV and ITV Hub.
