Roman Kemp has responded in the best way possible after Holly Willoughby mistook Ross Kemp for him.
On Tuesday’s episode of This Morning, former EastEnders actor Ross, 58, appeared to chat about his return to acting in new thriller Blindspot.
But when introducing him, Holly made a bit of a blunder, calling him ‘Roman Kemp’.
As the camera cut to Ross, he stared down the barrel of the camera, cracking a sly smile.
Those watching on at home noticed the mistake right away, posting clips on social media poking fun at what had unfolded.
‘Did you really just call Ross Kemp, ROMAN KEMP.. Ross looked chuffed 🤣🤣,’ one person wrote on Twitter.
News of what happened made it to Roman, 30, pretty quickly, who responded by changing his Twitter profile photo to one of Ross.
‘#NewProfilePic,’ he wrote, after first retweeting a clip of the video.
While he took it in his stride, Roman had a recent gaffe of his own while appearing on the ITV breakfast progamme.
After a busy weekend at the helm of the Summertime Ball, the Capital Breakfast host attended the studio sans shoes last month.

Explaining how the weekend had been a ‘total blur’, Roman admitted he had forgotten his shoes while leaving the house early in the morning.
Lucky for him though, he did have some slides at work he could chuck on, deciding to turn up wearing them with a pair of socks, much to the delight of Holly and co-host Dermot O’Leary.
This Morning airs weekdays from 10am on ITV1.
