Instead, the only host nominated from This Morning is Alison Hammond, who has taken on the role alongside Dermot O’Leary for the summer.
The pair impressed viewers with smart wit and funny jokes they shared with guests and contributors.
Although she has been a regular on ITV since 2002, the 49-year-old quickly became a fan favourite as ITV bosses decided who would permanently replace Holly and Phil.
The revolving door of presenters also included Josie Gibson, Craig Doyle, Rylan Clark, Emma Willis, Davina McCall, and Rochelle Humes.
