This Morning presenters Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley have signed off for the summer as they look forward to several weeks of (hopefully!) sunshine.
On Thursday (July 11), the hosts – who made their debut as main presenters in March – announced it was their final show until September.
But fans have a lot to get excited for as Ben and Cat’s replacements over the next few weeks have been revealed.

Signing off the show today, Cat said: “That’s all from us for a few weeks. We’ll be back in September.”
Ben added: “You’re going to be in good hands. Thank you for looking after me and Cat for this first term. We’ve loved it haven’t we?”
Cat gushed: “We’ve had the best time ever! Thanks for watching, we’ll see you in September.”
It was then revealed which members of the This Morning family will be standing in for Ben and Cat.
