It comes after co-star Phillip Schofield issued a similarly affectionate message to Holly over social media, amid rumours that the two were at odds.
“The last few weeks haven’t been easy for either of us. As I have said before, Holly is my rock.
“We’re the best of friends – as always, she is an incredible support on screen, behind the scenes and on the phone.”
It’s a statement that many fans took as acknowledging that something had indeed happened between the paid that had ruined their friendship.
Sources have claimed that the pair are no longer as close as they once were and are “barely speaking” off-camera.
A source also claimed that Holly had been “distancing herself” from Phil, after his brother recently appeared in court accused of sexually assaulting a minor.
In recent weeks Holly has also reportedly unfollowed her long time pal from Twitter.
Phil and Holly have been presenting ITV’s This Morning together for 14 years, but a string of negative headlines have led many to speculate that could still end.
However, in a new statement ITV confirmed today that the pair would remain hosting tomorrow’s show.
This Morning airs 10am on weekdays on ITV.
