First Philip wants Myleene, then he wants Holly - for goodness keep it to yourself man - you wont get the last say anyway
He won't get Holly she will still be on maternity leave when This Morning returns in the Autumn.
Myleene Klass has confirmed that she would be willing to replace Fern Britton on This Morning.
The TV host has been tipped to join the ITV1 programme since Britton announced her decision to quit in March.
More recently, it was claimed that the show's longrunning presenter Phillip Schofield believes Klass is "perfect" for the job.
Speaking to the Daily Express, Klass explained: "I've heard about my name being in the frame and I'm a fan of Phillip Schofield, which is a bonus. I do the early mornings anyway, so it would fit in perfectly with the diary!"
However, the star added that she is being cautious over the rumours, commenting: "It is wonderful to be considered, it's a fabulous show, but I honestly haven't heard any more about it than everyone else."
Klass currently presents Channel 4 style show 10 Years Younger, as well as appearing in advertisements for Marks & Spencer and Pantene.
No thanks - sorry, don't like her
Myleene Klass seems to pop up everywhere these days.
I would not like to see her on TM either, too much of her on tv as it is.
Wish they would get on with it. Is it the end of the month that Fern leaves? Not that I'm bothered as I don't see TM but Mel Sykes is still my favourite to see on my day off. I miss the show her and Des O'Connor used to do.
Fern leaves on 17 July, her birthday
I'll tell you who would be fantastic - Denise Welsh but she has other commitments.
Yes, you are right, she would be good :)
THE Duchess of York is in talks with ITV chiefs to replace Fern Britton on This Morning, The Sun can reveal.
Fergie, 49, is keen to join Phillip Schofield on the show's sofa after doing two documentaries for the channel.
ITV sources said she was a strong contender - and could beat off competition from presenters including Fiona Phillips, Coleen Nolan, Christine Bleakley and Holly Willoughby.
The former Royal put herself forward for the job after a meeting to discuss new documentary ideas.
A channel source said: "The Duchess came in to see the team and later that evening she called back to ask if she could be kept in mind for Fern's replacement.
"She is a big fan of the show and is keen to carry on her TV work. She loves interviewing.
"As a mum, she is empathetic. The producers think she could actually be a good contender.
"Even if she doesn't end up doing the job, we would still love her to make films for us and she could definitely be a stand-in host."
A show spokeswoman said: "We are talking to a number of people at the moment, but will not be confirming who will be taking over from Fern until later in the year."
Fergie appeared on The Duchess in Hull, where she left her luxurious Manhattan lifestyle and moved in with a family on one of Britain's poorest council estates.
In Duchess and Daughters: Their Secret Mission, she visited orphanages in Romania and Turkey with Princess Eugenie, 19.
The pair donned headscarves and black wigs to get into the institutions and saw shocking scenes including disabled children tied to beds.
In the US, Fergie was special correspondent for NBC's Today Show and a substitute host on CNN's Larry King Live and ABC's The View.
Can't see that one working :nono:
This is getting out of hand they need to choose someone who is an unknown - it could work then a known face.
I wish they would just get a move on an give someone the job. How about Fiona Phillips.
they will already know who has got the job
Well let's hope it's someone who isn't annoying like Anthea Turner.
Not seen her recently but I read she is pretty broke, her hubby's business is suffering badly in the credit crunch times.
Have they not chose someone yet?
No not yet
They will have hired someone at this stage with Fern leaving in a matter of weeks. They're probably sorting out contracts, hours, pay etc. before they announce it publicly.
yeh im pretty certain it will almost have been finalised by now
It will be announced soon as Fern's last day is not too far off now.
I read about her misfortune here:

GABY Roslin has held secret talks with This Morning bosses - fuelling speculation she will replace host Fern Britton.
She is a surprise contender to join Phillip Schofield - but producers could get her involved in the ITV show even if she doesn't land the top job.
The 44 year old has had few high-profile jobs since leaving the Big Breakfast in 1996.
She hosted Eurovision: Making Your Mind Up with Terry Wogan in 2004 and has been a regular presenter of annual telethon Children In Need.
A This Morning source said: "Gaby's been in the building to meet chiefs but it's not clear whether it's for Fern's job."
Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson, Fiona Phillips, Coleen Nolan, Christine Bleakley and Holly Willoughby have all been tipped as contenders to replace Fern - who will leave the show in the middle of next month.
