In tonight's episode of Celebrity Big Brother, Fern Britton opened up about her time on the popular ITV show This Morning. The 66-year-old former TV star sat down with Gary Goldsmith, the uncle of Kate Middleton, to discuss the show's tumultuous year.
As many fans may know, the past 12 months have seen some major changes on This Morning. Long-time hosts Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield both left the show, leaving their coveted seats up for grabs. And just recently, it was announced that Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley will be taking over as the new hosts.
But what really caught Gary's attention was the news that Schofield, who sensationally quit the show after admitting to having an affair with a younger colleague, was rumored to be entering the Big Brother house. This prompted Fern to make a bold statement, saying she would "leave out the other door" if he were to enter.
Fern, who presented This Morning with Schofield for seven years, admitted that she couldn't comment on the recent changes to the show. When asked about her thoughts, she simply replied, "I got off the train and it's way over the horizon now, so I honestly don't know."
Despite the tension between her and Schofield, Fern did mention that she sees the new presenting line-up as a "new era" for the show. She also reflected on her time on This Morning, admitting that it was "tricky at times" but that she still considers it an institution that "rocks but gets back together again."
Before entering the Big Brother house, Fern had been open about wanting to show the public a different side of herself, one that is unscripted and unapologetic. A source close to her also revealed that she has a lot of stories to tell, and she won't hold back when it comes to her relationships with people like Schofield, with whom she no longer speaks.
The tension between Fern and Schofield has been a topic of interest since her sudden departure from the show in 2009. At the time, she failed to mention her co-host in her farewell speech, and it was later revealed that there had been some tension between the two for a while. Schofield even mentioned in his autobiography that their relationship had turned sour.
