Melanie Sykes tipped to replace Fern Britton on This Morning

Former model said to have been offered a contract

Friday, 27 March 2009

Melanie Sykes is apparently being lined-up to take over from Fern Britton on This Morning

The 51-year-old is leaving the ITV show at the end of July.

And it's thought Mel, 38, has now been offered a contract to work alongside Phillip Schofield, 46.

'Fern's replacement is a one-horse race,' a source tells The Sun. 'This Morning is determined to sign Melanie and made a formal approach today.'

Meanwhile, Fern's rep has rubbished reports she's quit as host of the British Soap Awards and that she'll front a new BBC show.

'Neither statement is true,' John Rush tells Now Online.

Fern used to be my no 1 tele celeb, but recently she's lost the plot and seems to let the gorgeous Philip down. Melanie Sykes will make a wonderful replacement,but PLEASE NOT the deadful Ruth Langsford!!!
