Holly Willoughby is said to be ‘heartbroken’ after quitting This Morning but why did she leave? Find out what insiders say was behind her decision on heat now.
After 14 years at the helm of ITV’s This Morning_,_ presenter Holly Willoughby shocked the nation last week when she sensationally quit the award-winning daytime show. Holly told fans in an emotional statement shared on her Instagram page that it was a “difficult goodbye” but she felt proud to have been a part of such an iconic show.
“Leaving a job like this after 14 years is almost like a break-up or a divorce, and it’s absolutely heartbreaking for Holly. She’s been in floods of tears and it’s been a huge decision – but it’s bittersweet, because it did feel like the right thing to do,” the insider says. “After Phil left, she had really positive ambitions for the show and wanted to create a female-driven presenting force on the sofa. But after producers brought on Ben Shephard, she felt as if she didn’t have as much power as she’d assumed, and it left a bad taste in her mouth. Suddenly, Holly was unsure if she really was going to be the leader of the pack following Phil’s departure and, if that was going to be the case, there’s no way she was going to stay and put up with it.
The source reveals that while Holly is devastated to be leaving, she’s also excited about the future.
