Why are Eamonn and Ruth presenting This Morning?

The This Morning sofa is facing a summer mix-up as Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford cover for Holly and Phil's summer break.

Starting from Monday, Eamonn and Ruth will be presenting the show for the next seven weeks as Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield are on their summer holidays until September.

Eamonn and Ruth are no strangers to presenting the breakfast show, having worked on the show for 15 years since 2005.

In December last year, the couple hosted their final Friday morning show, with Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary taking over as Friday presenters. The couple now only have presenting duties for the school holidays, when Holly and Phil are not hosting the show.

This summer is the first time Eamonn and Ruth have been on our screens for an extended period since last year.

Eamonn and Ruth will start presenting This Morning on Monday, which airs on ITV at 10 AM.
