SH0CK: This Morning viewers switch off – TikTok W1TCHES spark outrage!
This Morning fans fumed ‘I’ve had to switch off’ after TikTok w1tch3s took over the studio.
Thursday’s instalment of the ITV show saw co-hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard sit down with three women who identified as w1tch3s.
Mother and daughter duo Emma Griffin and Holly Kenyon, as well as Katy Whyte opened up about their lives as professional w1tch3s.
All three post about their magical activities on TikTok and Emma explained: ‘I think because the word ‘witch’ people are scared of it because of the movies, and I think now people are looking at it as a form of wellness and good for their emotions and inner calmness.
‘It’s really beautiful to see younger generations, especially Holly’s age stepping into witchcraft and sharing their magic.’
Holly had been brought up surrounded by witchcraft as both her mother and grandmother practised.

Emma revealed that ‘anyone can be a witch’ and Katy opened up about how she was interested in it from being young.
Katy said: ‘For me, when I was a teenager, I was drawn to it, I would end up in the witchy shops.
‘I was completely in the closet, all my books hidden from my parents because I was really embarrassed by it because back then it wasn’t on social media so this is why I think it’s so lovely now.’
She revealed she was interested in ‘the cycles of nature’ and the moon.
While Holly explained: ‘I’ve been doing it since my earliest memory is 7 years old, I used to make potions from my mums stuff in the bathroom and carried it on from there.’
As for those who are more cynical to witchcraft, Holly said: ‘I look at it as a way of it’s a lifestyle and it’s a beautiful way to connect to nature and it’s embracing slow living and going back to what our ancestors gave us.’
However, the w1tch3s were not well received by some viewers who took to social media to share their thoughts.
One posted on X: ‘FFS! …I am lost for words . ..W1tches #ThisMorning.’
