Brief Stint on This Morning
Cat Deeley has dealt a blow to This Morning as she returns to her hit US show, despite being tipped as a potential replacement for Holly Willoughby. The presenter had impressed show bosses during her three-day stint on the ITV show last month.
US Show Commitments
Cat, 47, currently hosts So You Think You Can Dance in America, and filming for the show is currently underway. The dance show is expected to return to TV screens in March, meaning Cat's return to This Morning seems unlikely.
Delighting Viewers
Cat's appearance on This Morning alongside Rylan Clark and Craig Doyle left viewers delighted, with many commenting on how she had "breathed new life" into the show. Her comfortable presence and wit garnered positive feedback from viewers.
Producers' Hopes Dashed
Producers had hoped to tempt Cat back to British television, but her commitment to So You Think You Can Dance in America has put an end to those plans. Cat has been presenting the hit show since season two, and it is set to return to US schedules in March.
Cat's Thoughts
In a recent interview, Cat mentioned that her appearance on This Morning was a "one-off," but she admitted that she would be open to seeing if anything more came of it. However, her current commitments make it unlikely for her to take on a permanent role on the show.
Potential Captain to Steady the Ship
According to a source, This Morning bosses saw Cat as someone who could "steady the ship" due to her experience with live TV and her ability to interview a range of guests, from pop stars to politicians. However, it seems that Cat's return to US television is where she will be staying for now.
