Why Fans Think Cat Deeley Is Leaving ITV’s This Morning

Cat Deeley became the permanent host of ITV’s This Morning earlier this year. However, there are already some speculations about her potential departure from the show. This has made fans wonder if Cat Deeley is leaving This Morning. So, is there any truth to these rumors?

Here is everything we have learned on whether Deeley is leaving the British daytime show.

Is Cat Deeley Leaving ITV’s This Morning?

No, Cat Deeley is not leaving ITV’s This Morning.

However, the popular host admitted during an interview with The Times that she was surprised by the scrutiny the gig brought. “Everyone keeps checking in with me, ‘Are you OK? Are you handling this all right,” she added.

Deeley even said she would quit “If it [the public attention because of the job] gets too much” for her. “I don’t care. I do not care. If it gets too much for me I’m going to quit. I don’t need to do it. I could stop and be a mum for most of the year, and then go and do the shows in America. There is no ulterior motive for me doing this,” she elaborated.

Cat Deeley previously served as a guest presenter on This Morning after Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby left the show. She seems to have developed a strong bond with her co-host Ben Shephard and his wife Annie and reportedly sought out their advice on parenting. In an interview with Best Magazine, Deeley and Shephard reflected on their dynamic and the part parenthood played in it.

“He’s got two boys who are obviously much older than mine, so I feel like he’s been there and done that,” Deeley said. “And, sometimes when I worry about stuff, I do have a tendency of overthinking things too much, he’s always like, ‘Deeley it’ll be fine. How about a bit of this and that? And, if all else fails, talk to Annie, she’ll set you straight,’” she explained. (via The Mirror)

Moreover, Daily Mail recently reported that Cat Deeley would be part of a rotating panel of judges on the upcoming ITV show, M&S: Dress the Nation. This probably added to the rumors about her exit from This Morning, even if that isn’t the case.
