When popular TV host Ant McPartlin announced he'd made the decision to step down from presenting I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here this year, fans were left devastated! But when Holly Willoughby was revealed as his replacement and left viewers in hysterics with her hilarious reactions on the show, this year's series turned into one of the most viewed in history.

However, now that the 2018 series of I'm A Celeb is over and done with for another year, with Harry Redknapp being crowned the King of the Jungle, fans of This Morning are keen to see Holly return to the UK to present the show alongside Phillip Schofield.
