Cat Deeley will co-host ITV’s This Morning next week as the broadcaster looks to replace former presenter Holly Willoughby.
In October, Willoughby announced she would be leaving her role on the show after 14 years.
With Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby having both left This Morning, a handful of presenters are temporarily taking on the roles but who will present it next week?

Deeley, 47, will host the show with Rylan Clark on Monday and Tuesday next week.
On Wednesday, she’ll be joined by Craig Doyle on the sofa.
Doyle and Alison Hammond will host on Thursday and Hammond and Dermot O’Leary will present their Friday programme together as usual.

Announcing her departure from the show on Instagram, Willoughby wrote: “I have let ITV know today that after 14 years, I will not be returning to This Morning.”
She added: “To everyone who has ever worked on the show over the years, thank you so so much.
“This is such a difficult goodbye, you are incredible and I forever will be proud of what we’ve done together.”
In May, Willoughby’s former co-host Phillip Schofield left the show after he admitted to a relationship with a younger male former colleague.
