This Morning viewers spot Holly’s frustration at Phil cutting her off mid-sentence

Viewers are in hot debate over the state of Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby's friendship after an awkward moment on This Morning. 

Italian chef Gino D'Acampo may often leave viewers speechless with crude innuendos about his nan or suggesting a viewer gets into a compromising situation with their own father, but now host Phillip Schofield has seemingly become known for cutting his co-host Holly Willoughby off mid-speech.

A TikToker shared a clip from yesterday's (Monday, 3 October) episode of This Morning which has led viewers to speculate over whether relations may have grown slightly frosty between the television presenters.

Judge for yourself if Willoughby was throwing some shade:

The TikTok - shared by user Jenna Tuddenham - shows Schofield and Willoughby chatting with Polly Brooks MBE, who lost her husband, Dan, in the Bali bombings 20 years ago.

Seconds after Willoughby begins to reply to Brooks, Schofield jumps in, leaving Willoughby clutching her notes and lowering her hand back into her lap.

The TikToker then claims that Willoughby gives a quick 'eye roll' in Schofield's direction, however, it could also be described as a bit of side eye.

The clip has amassed over 400,000 views, with many This Morning viewers having flooded to the post to weigh in on what the eye roll could mean for the presenters and whether it actually indicates trouble brewing beneath the surface.

One user speculated that it's not the first time Schofield has interrupted Willoughby on television. They said: "Her face and body language says this is not the first time."

"This isn’t the first time I’ve noticed her do this. There’s definitely been tension between them both for a long time!!" another chimed.

A third said: "Ha that look says it all they will not be working together much longer 100% i think philip has just got abit to big headed now."

One user theorised that there's been a shift in the presenters' relationship ever since they were accused of queue jumping to see Queen Elizabeth II lying in state.

They said: "Since 'que gate' this morning has felt icky, like holly doesn’t seem like she’s enjoying working with Philip as much? I’m not sure."

There was even a petition which reached over 55,000 signatures to have the pair axed from This Morning.

However, another argued: "Holly 'distancing' herself from Phil. none of these things are us catching them eye rolling we see what they want us to see..."
