This Morning presenter shake-up as Dermot O'Leary welcomes new host after 18 months

THIS Morning welcomed back an old face to our screens today - Mollie King.

The Saturdays singer joined Dermot O'Leary for Tuesday's instalment of the ITV show.

After a beautiful rendition of Silent Night performed by a group of school children at the start of the episode, the camera panned back on the This Morning studio.

Dermot was over the moon to see Mollie, 35, back presenting the show.

The singer revealed that she was last on This Morning a whopping 18 months ago.

Mollie joined the cast of the ITV programme back in 2018, but had taken a break after giving birth to her daughter in November last year.
