Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield respond to Piers Morgan's savage rant

This Morning hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield couldn't help take a swipe at fellow ITV star Piers Morgan on the show on Tuesday morning.

Good Morning Britain presenter Piers took aim at the show and its presenters on Monday evening, as they picked up the award for Best Daytime Show at the TV Choice Awards 2019.

Piers claimed that Phil and Holly were "snivelling b*****ds", admitting he thought it would finally be GMB's time to win the award.

Playing the clip on air on Tuesday's This Morning, Phillip and Holly were in hysterics before joking they were dedicating their award to him.

Showing it off to viewers and thanking them once again for their support, they couldn't help take a swipe at Piers.

Holly said: "I mean that was just fantastic wasn't it? It's a speech you wanna give when you don’t win isn’t it."

Phillip added: "So Piers Morgan, whose middle names are spittle and bile, if you want to pop in Piers to hold it, then we'll leave it here for you and you can maybe come and have your picture taken with it."

The duo then repeated: "We love you Piers" before laughing again.

It comes after Pier's hilarious rant aimed at them, after they won the award for the fourth year in a row.

The furious GMB host sent the shocked audience into fits of giggles by shouting "f*** you and f*** your awards".

On claims that the ITV daytime team are all "part of one big happy family", he naughtily added: "Are we f***".

And Piers' anger wasn't just in the heat of the moment as he labelled Phil and Holly's acceptance speech "sickening" on Tuesday morning's GMB.

The livid presenter said: "I just want to say how thrilled I am for everybody at This Morning. If anyone loves you guys more than you love each other it's me."

This Morning airs weekdays and Sundays at 10:30am on ITV.
