Full list of ITV hosts KEEPING their job amid major cuts 'revealed'

Some of the most famous faces on ITV will reportedly keep their jobs at the broadcaster, despite numerous budget issues. Earlier this year, it was claimed that broadcaster's earnings have allegedly plummeted by 44 per cent to £99 million during the first six months of the year, sparking a fresh drive to curb production expenses, and it means that more than half 440 staff who work behind the scenes will lose their jobs.

However, those in front of the camera who have become familiar to ITV viewers over the years, are said to be safe amid the blood bath. According to Katie Hind at the Daily Mail, it's understood that Kate Garraway, who regularly hosts Good Morning Britain, is safe, as is her co-host Adil Ray. Richard Madeley, who presented This Morning alongside his wife Judy Finnigan in the 1990s, also hosts the early morning programme and is said to have so far only agreed to a short-term deal.

Other long-serving presenters expected to keep their jobs include Julie Etchingham and Tom Bradby, who are known for fronting ITV News programmes, as is GMB's Susanna Reid, although she is said to be 'devastated' by the chaos. Some of the stars are said to be feeling guilty at having kept their jobs whilst those behind the scenes are the ones likely to lose out. It comes after ITV makes major decision on I'm A Celebrity's future after talks with officials.

A source told the outlet: "It's awful to see, awful. These people work so hard and they've still lost their jobs. And where are they going to go? The industry is getting smaller and smaller for production staff. For people like Susanna and Kate, it has been devastating to watch their staff treated like this. Some of the stars wish they could do something to change it. Others, though, are just smug at the fact they are staying."

It emerged earlier this year that ITV's staple chat shows Lorraine and Loose Women will be slashed to just 30 weeks of output per year, and Lorraine Kelly's eponymous programme will be cut to just half an hour and added onto the end of Good Morning Britain. Christine Lampard and Ranvir Singh regularly stand in for Lorraine when she is away from her eponymous, although those appearances are now set to be 'slashed' going forward.

But it's now said to be an 'open secret' at the broadcaster that Lorraine, who started working for the network more than 40 years ago, will leave when her current contract is up. A source said: "Lorraine sees it as the end. She's got a year left on her contract which she will honour, but beyond that there are no plans for her to stay. She will be leaving."

"We don’t comment on individual contracts but we have always said that we intend to keep our daytime shows familiar to our audience," a statement to the Mirror read. "Good Morning Britain viewers can expect to see the presenting line up that they know and love on screen once the proposed changes to production and scheduling take place in 2026."

Several ITV Daytime brands have been affected by budget cuts in the last few months. In May, it was announced that from January 2026, Good Morning Britainwill be extended by 30 minutes to run from 6am to 9.30am daily. However Lorraine Kelly's show has been cut in half and will now run from 9.30am until 10am. Not only that, but the programme will only air for 30 weeks of the year. It comes amid news that ITV's soapsCoronation Street and Emmerdale will also be slashing cast members to save on the budget, whilst they will also both lose an episode per week.

During the weeks Lorraine is not on air, Good Morning Britain will run from 6am to 10am. This Morning, which is currently fronted by Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard amongst a host of others, will remain in its 10am-12.30pm slot on weekdays throughout the year, while Loose Women will be in the 12.30-1.30pm slot for a seasonal basis of 30 weeks too.

Kevin Lygo, Managing Director of ITV’s Media and Entertainment Division, explained of the huge changes: "Daytime is a really important part of what we do, and these scheduling and production changes will enable us to continue to deliver a schedule providing viewers with the news, debate and discussion they love from the presenters they know and trust as well generating savings which will allow us to reinvest across the programme budget in other genres.

"These changes also allow us to consolidate our news operations and expand our national, international and regional news output and to build upon our proud history of trusted journalism at a time when our viewers need accurate, unbiased news coverage more than ever.

"I recognise that our plans will have an impact on staff off screen in our Daytime production teams."
