Cat Deeley seems to be following in her hubby's footsteps.

She opened by saying: "Can you believe they've let two of the naughtiest people on TV on live TV together," to which Ryland replied: "Now this is officially the end. Babe it is so lovely to see you."

A clip played showing photos of Clark and Deeley displayed on a wall inside the This Morning studio.

Speaking to Cat, Rylan said: "I knew you were a massive big deal all my life but today confirmed it when I walked down the corridor of power and saw this (photo). Babe, we’re on the wall."

Rylan then reminded his co-host that she had presented This Morning years before, telling her this was not her "first rodeo".

Though for many viewers it might be their first time seeing Cat on the programme, she revealed that she had stepped up to the mark before.

The 47-year-old had previously co-presented with Paul O'Grady for a special programme to celebrate Cilla Black's 60th birthday.

Cat took her place in the hot seat as Josie Gibson jets off to Australia to take part in I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

The wife of Patrick Kielty is presenting for three days – alongside Rylan again on Tuesday before she shares the sofa with Craig Doyle on Wednesday.

It comes after Holly Willoughby left the show last month "for the sake of her family" after discovering she was the target of a foiled kidnap and murder plot and has since not been replaced permanently.
