Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield are said to have pulled the plug on their annual holidays together as their rumoured feud continues.
The This Morning presenters, who are reportedly embroiled in an off-air fallout, used to enjoy soaking up the sun on a getaway with both their families.
However, fresh claims made by the Daily Mail and Mirror allege that the tradition has now been called off and that a trip won’t take place this year.
The update comes hours after sources claimed that bosses at ITV are in crisis talks over Phil’s future on This Morning.
‘Chiefs at ITV have now called meetings to discuss what to do next amid the duo’s row,’ an insider told the Daily Mail.

Holly, 42, and Phil, 61, usually host the popular daytime programme together Monday to Thursday, but it remains to be seen whether they will be on air together next week.
On Friday, Phil released a statement to address the circulating rumours, which is said to have ‘blindsided’ Holly who didn’t know ahead of time his plans to speak publicly.
Phil said: ‘As I have said before, Holly is my rock.
‘We’re the best of friends — as always, she is an incredible support on screen, behind the scenes and on the phone.’
He continued to The Sun: ‘Holly has always been there for me, through thick and thin. And I’ve been there for her.
‘The last few weeks haven’t been easy for either of us.’
In April, Phil’s younger brother Timothy Schofield, 54, was convicted of 11 sexual offences involving a child between October 2016 and October 2019, including two of sexual activity with a child.
At the time, Holly, was also ill and took time off This Morning.
Phil added: ‘My family went through a real ordeal, and Holly’s support throughout meant the world to me – as did the support of my bosses at ITV, my editor Martin Frizell and the whole This Morning family, including our amazing viewers.
‘And of course Holly has herself been ill with shingles. Whatever happens, we still have each other to count on.’
Following the guilty verdict, Phil issued a statement and said he ‘no longer’ has a brother.

At the time, a source told Mail Online: ‘Holly is loyal to Phil and she will always be there for him.’
‘And she will always be there for This Morning too. She sees it as her role to keep things going.’
