This Morning fans were confused as Dermot O’Leary and Alison Hammond hosted on Monday.

The presenters fronted the ITV morning show despite usually being the presenters for Friday mornings.

For the entirety of last week, previous Friday morning presenters and married couple Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford fronted the show as regular hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield took a break for the Easter holidays.

However, there was a mixture of confusion from viewers at home, with some wondering why Holly and Phil were not back to presenting duties, while others questioned why Ruth and Eamonn were not covering in their absence.

Another viewer wrote: “Where is @EamonnHolmes and @RuthieeL I won’t be watching @thismorning until they back again #thismorning “.

One fan wrote: ” #thismorning hang on, I thought Ruth and Eamon were meant to be covering the school holidays?!”

Meanwhile, a different viewer was pining for Phillip and Holly, tweeting: “where are Holly and Phil? #thismorning “.

Elsewhere, another confused viewer noted: “What are they doing on, it’s only Monday. Where’s Ruth and Eammon [sad face emoji] #thismorning “”.

Finally, one This Morning viewer questioned: “Have I missed something? Where’s Holly and Phil? Thought they were back today? #ThisMorning ”

So, the simple answer is that Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield remain on their fortnight break for Easter, while Alison and Dermot have stepped up for the second week of the Easter break.

We should expect Holly and Phil to be back next week!

Meanwhile, Alison and Dermot will be covering current topics facing the day, including the reopening of pubs and non-essential shops as Covid-19 lockdown restrictions loosen and also the death of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
