Michelle Keegan is ‘in the running’ to replace Holly Willoughby when she leaves Celebrity Juice later this month.
The former Brassic actress, who is married to TOWIE hunk Mark Wright, is a favourite on the crude ITV2 series – often taking Keith Lemon’s dirty humour in good spirits.
Opening up about the impending Celebrity Juice shake-up during an appearance on Good Morning Britain, Keith told hosts Ben Shephard and Susanna Reid: “Tonight is the last show but next week we look back at say goodbye to Holly.
“It is a shame that we have to do it digitally as I do love hugging Holly – she gives good hugs.”
When asked who will replace the blonde This Morning babe, Keith replied: “I’ve got a meeting today.

“We have got to get the right chemistry. I’ve seen a lot of names.
“I saw Michelle Keegan is in the running but no body has been in talks yet.”
Holly Willoughby has been a captain on Celebrity Juice since the show started in 2008.

At the time BBC regular Ferne Cotton headed up the rival team before she called it quits in 2018.
During tonight’s episode of Celebrity Juice, Keith is joined by Ben Shephard, Emily Atack and Matt Goss.
Explaining what went down during the socially distanced filming, the funnyman revealed he how Emily appeared to be more than a little sleepy.
Laughing, Keith said: “Emily Atack looked like she had fallen asleep.
“Matt Goss stripped off apart from a sock and I got Ben to go into his garden and throw an egg high in the air and catch it in his garden.”
