Phillip Schofield has laughed off suggestions that he could be leaving This Morning in the near future.

A report last week indicated that the BBC is preparing a "multi-million pound offer" in order to tempt the seasoned presenter away from ITV.

The boss of the daytime show has also revealed that he is looking to hire a new black main presenter, fuelling speculation that Schofield or his long-term on-screen partner Holly Willoughby could quit.

Asked by a fan on Twitter whether the duo would be going their separate ways, Schofield replied "course not", followed by a 'crying with laughter' emoji.

Schofield has also seemingly confirmed that he will be returning as host of ITV gameshow The Cube for its new run this autumn.
