This Morning hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby are increasingly likely to leave the show before the end of the year, according to bookies.
The presenting duo, who have shared the ITV daytime sofa for 13 years, have seen their popularity do a deep dive downwards in the wake of the 'Queensgate' queue-jump scandal.
That has seen punters place a number of bets on the pair to leave imminently.
Ladbrokes are offering odds as short as 6/4 for Holly and Phil not to be presenting This Morning at the start of 2023.
Phil has been presenting the show since 2002, while Holly replaced his former co-host Fern Britton in 2009.
"Perhaps it's time for a change on the This Morning sofas," Ladbrokes' Alex Apati said.
"With Holly and Phil far from being in the British public's good books right now, it could well be a case of New Year, new presenters, if the latest odds are anything to go by."
This comes after Phillip's £1million We Buy Any Car deal has come to an end after five years, it has been confirmed.
After We Buy Any Car removed the This Morning presenter's images from their social media profile this week, some speculated that it might have something to do with 'Queuegate'.
Phil and his co-presenter, Holly Willoughby, were accused of skipping the line to see the late Queen's funeral ahead of her September 19 funeral. The controversy led to a petition urging ITV bosses to sack the pair from the daytime show and as of Saturday morning it has clocked up over 77,000 signatures
We Buy Any Car has since confirmed Phil's contract has come to an end, concluding a five-year deal. The company also made clear it had nothing to do with recent events.
