Dermot O’Leary has taken a subtle swipe at Carol Vorderman and her love life.
The This Morning presenter, 50, was fronting the show on Friday with Alison Hammond when he made the cheeky comment.
During a segment with astrologer Hagan Fox, viewers had been asked to get in touch with any questions they had about their future, after which he would then explain what the stars had in store.
One call came from Sara, who wanted some advice on what direction she should take in her love life, before revealing some details about her conundrum.
‘I’m in a bit of a love square…,’ she revealed as Alison interrupted: ‘Did you say love square?’
Both Sara and Dermot burst into giggles before she clarified her relationship dilemma and confirmed she had three men on the go.

‘Wow. Interesting,’ Alison quipped.
Soon after Dermot cheekily added: ‘You wouldn’t be Carol Vorderman, would you?’
While Carol, 62, usually appears on the last show of the week for the breakfast programme, she was absent today and is yet to comment on the cheeky jibe.

However earlier this year the former Countdown star spoke candidly about her love life.
After sharing that she had five ‘special friends’, Carol said she’d spent a decade fine-tuning her dating life to best suit her needs and wants.
She revealed that she had been dating some of her ‘special friends’ for many years and has been in ‘long-term relationships if you like’ with them.
Speaking with The Sun, Carol later said: ‘I don’t understand why my behaviour should change just because I’m getting older.
‘Every romcom tells women to look for love and live happily ever after. It’s all nonsense.
‘We sell every little girl the message: “Cinderella needs a prince to save her.” Yet half of marriages end in divorce.’
Explaining how she wasn’t into one-night stands, Carol said she was ‘very happy’ with her arrangement.
Metro.co.uk has contacted Carol Vorderman for comment.
This Morning airs weekdays at 9am on ITV1.
