Andi Peters has come under fire on his first day back at the helm of This Morning. The TV star, who is often seen hosting the competition segments on Good Morning Britain and Lorraine, was co-hosting the show alongside Rochelle Humes on Monday (August 15).
The pair last hosted the show together back in September but Rochelle, 33, has been seen in recent weeks alongside Vernon Kay and Craig Doyle as the summer hosting line-up continues to change in Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield's absence.
The show got off to an energetic start with the two presenters whooping and cheering their way into a new week with the This Morning crew behind the cameras. But things got slightly more chaotic with their first guests as viewers flocked to social media to comment on the 'carnage' that unfolded.

Things did, however, settle down and Rochelle and Andi, 52, were joined on the show by 17-year-old TikTok star Kyle Thomas. The teen, from Kent, has amassed millions of online followers - 32.9 MILLION to be exact - and has gained more than 1.5 BILLION likes on the video-sharing platform.
After releasing his first graphic novel, Guardian Of The Realm, last month, Kyle appeared on the ITV daytime show to chat about his online fame and career as a young TikTok creator. But This Morning viewers were left unimpressed by the line of questioning.
During the chat Andi asked: "I need to just get a gauge, I don't want you to tell me your bank balance but could you buy a new toaster? Could you buy a new car? Could you buy a house wherever you wanted to?"
Kyle confirmed he could buy a new car or house and "live comfortably" after his TikTok earnings. But Andi then enquired about the price of the teen's jacket which lead to many viewers heading to social media to complain.
