Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley have been replaced on This Morning in a huge hosting shake-up – and fans are divided.

The presenting duo usually appear on the ITV daytime show every week, Monday to Thursday.

However, this week viewers will see a different pair taking their place – Dermot O’Leary, 51, and Siân Welby, 38.

The shake-up was announced on Instagram over the weekend in a video posted on This Morning’s account.

In the video, Siân said: ‘We’re back together on Monday, I love this!’

‘For a whole week,’ Dermot explains. ‘Looking forward to it.’

However, fans are divided over the change of hosts and many took to social media to share their verdicts.

One posted: ‘@thismorning ugh.. why is Sian on this week… she’s so boring.’

Another said: ‘Dermot and Sian this week. Alison conspicuous by her absence lately, what jolly have ITV sent her off on…’ 

Someone else wrote: ‘Thank f*** Alison isn’t on as well #thismorning.’

While a fourth penned: ‘OK, first day, Sian’s a bit excitable, hopefully she’ll calm down a bit …’

It comes after Alison Hammond, 50, was missing for the third week in a row on Friday’s instalment of This Morning.

Alison, who presents the ITV show with Dermot O’Leary every Friday, was replaced by Josie Gibson, 40, once again. 

Her absence comes seven days after she was replaced by Josie the Friday before with no explanation.

However, some fans are split by the change of hosts and many took to social media to share their verdicts
