Cat and Ben Make Major Presenter Return Announcement Live on ITV’s This Morning

Ben Shephard returned to This Morning with a fresh look, reuniting with co-host Cat Deeley after their summer hiatus. The host’s new appearance quickly caught the attention of viewers, as well as his co-star, who playfully highlighted his new beard during the show.

As Ben proudly showcased his new facial hair, he invited the audience to weigh in on whether he should shave it off live on air. However, not everyone was a fan of the change—colleague Gyles Brandreth admitted he wasn’t particularly impressed by the beard.

Despite the light-hearted banter, the conversation soon shifted to the recent Oasis ticket sale. While one of their colleagues celebrated securing tickets, others shared their disappointment at missing out. Over the weekend, Cat Deeley opened up about her approach to the show in an interview with The Sunday Times. She revealed that if the pressures of the job ever became overwhelming, she wouldn’t hesitate to step away.

“I don’t care. I do not care. If it gets too much for me I’m going to quit. I could stop and be a mum for most of the year and then go and do the shows in America. There is no ulterior motive for me doing this,” Cat shared.

Ben and Cat took on their roles at This Morning following the departures of Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby. At the time, Ben expressed his excitement and gratitude, calling it an “honor” to be entrusted with such a significant show.

Discussing his new role, Ben said, “This really feels like a very special moment for Cat and me to be part of the next chapter of This Morning. It’s an honor to be trusted with the reins, joining Alison and Dermot and all the team that works on and off the screen and does such a great job.”

He added, “For the last ten years I’ve been waking up with our ITV daytime audience on GMB and I now look forward to spending time with Cat, welcoming the viewers home after the school run or from their early morning routines, with a cup of tea and a mix of everything that makes This Morning so loved.” As Ben and Cat continue their journey on This Morning, viewers are eager to see how they will make their mark on the beloved show.
