Bemused This Morning fans question whether Matthew Wright's 'rattail' is for a bet

This Morning viewers were left with raised eyebrows today after spotting Matthew Wright's interesting haircut.

Matthew, 55, joined hosts Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford to discuss the news headlines alongside Julia Hartley-Brewer.

But fans couldn't help but get a bit distracted by Matthew's hair, which was more visible with him appearing in the studio.

Viewers flocked to Twitter to comment, with one writing: "Oh dear @Matthew_Wright - I had a rat’s tail in 2004. It wasn’t cool then and it’s definitely not now! Get the scissors out! #ThisMorning."

While another commented: "What the hell does he look like with that Rat tail on the back of his head #MatthewWright #ThisMorning."

A third joked: "Why had no-one addressed the fact that Matthew Wright has got a rat mooching about on the back of his neck? #ThisMorning."

Meanwhile others speculated whether commentator Matthew was growing the rattail as part of a bet.

One tweeted: "@Matthew_Wright are you growing that rat tail for a bet? #ThisMorning."

It's certainly not the first time that Matthew's hair has attracted confusion, with viewers begging him to cut it off in June and branding it "ridiculous" in December.

Looks like it's here to stay...

*This Morning airs weekdays at 10am on ITV
