Alison Hammond has missed This Morning for the third week running – just days after viewers demanded she was replaced on For The Love Of Dogs.
The 50-year-old, who presents the ITV show with Dermot O’Leary every Friday, was replaced by Josie Gibson, 40, once again.
The show is already under a huge schedule shake-up because of The Grand National Festival at Aintree coverage on the channel.
This means that This Morning it will be on for an extra half an hour, and no coverage of Loose Women will follow after.
Alison’s absence comes seven days after she was replaced by Josie last Friday with no explanation.
It left many viewers thoughts divided and they quickly took to social media with their thoughts.

This isn’t the first time that Alison has been missing from the show.
Last week the programme underwent the same presenter shake-up as Alison was replaced and Dermot O’Leary was again joined by the familiar face instead.
Cat said: ‘Dermot and Josie are going to be here on the show tomorrow, they’ll see you at 10am tomorrow morning.’

While Ben followed with, ‘See you next week, bye bye.’
Alison also presents For The Love Of Dogs with Alison Hammond – taking over as host after the late Paul O’Grady passed away aged 67 in March 2023.
The docuseries sees Alison follow in Paul’s footsteps and share the stories of pooches and cats at Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.
However, the overall reception was not initially positive with some watchers being critical of Alison.
After featuring on This Morning, viewers have shared their take on Alison’s role in the show again with many commenting that she doesn’t actually own a dog and is reportedly scared of pooches too. Others even called for her to be replaced.

Show hosts Cat Deeley, 48, and Ben Shephard, 50, present This Morning Monday to Thursday
One posted on X: ‘How come someone who DOES NOT OWN a dog present a show about dogs. At least Paul O’Grady absolutely loved dogs.’
Another commented: ‘Fancy giving show about rehoming dogs to someone who has admitted they don’t like dogs.’
Someone else penned: ‘Is this the same Alison that doesn’t like dogs?’
A fourth wrote: ‘Is it just me, or does anyone else get the feeling that Alison is only pretending to be a dog person? She doesn’t seem to show a natural love or genuine affection for them. She’s definitely no Paul O’Grady! I’d love to see Clare Balding present the show instead.’
