Amanda Holden has ripped apart Holly Willoughby‘s This Morning speech on Phillip Schofield‘s abrupt leaving.
The Britain’s Got Talent judge, 52, famously feuded with Phillip, 61, after he reportedly barred Holly from co-hosting This Morning with him while she was in Australia shooting I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2018.
She then looked to be celebrating Schofe’s surprise departure from This Morning last month, having previously identified him as one of three things she wouldn’t want to find in her house (along with spiders and flies).
Amanda grabbed the opportunity to join so many others in criticising Holly’s strange comments when she questioned This Morning viewers ‘are you OK?’ at the start of Monday’s show before striking out at her former co-host.
Instagrammed a video of herself in a white outfit identical to Holly’s, clasping her hands and asking her followers, ‘Hello, it’s Tuesday. ‘Are you all right?’
She also had another pop at Holly during her Heart breakfast radio show with Jamie Theakston, 52.
Amanda came at her gig the next day, drunk, after the BGT final on Sunday night.
‘I arrived home, went right into bed with my dog and cat,’ she added when Jamie inquired how she was feeling. At 8, I got up, made tea, and went back to bed.
‘I did that thing where you wake up at 2 and you have to talk yourself back into going to sleep.’
‘We’re worried about your well-being,’ Jamie added to another attendee, before Amanda yelled, ‘I’m OK folks, are you OK?’
Holly told This Morning viewers that her former co-host’s actions had left her “shaken, let down, and troubled” after he admitted to lying about an affair with a younger colleague.
In an interview with the BBC last week, Phil stated that his TV career was ended and that he had considered suicide.
Holly is alleged to have promised never to speak publicly about him again.
This Morning airs weekdays at 10am on ITV.
