Love Island host Laura Whitmore is said to be the favourite to take over from Holly Willoughby as a Celebrity Juice team captain.

Love Island host Laura Whitmore is said to be in pole position to replace Holly Willoughby on Celebrity Juice.

The This Morning presenter announced her decision to leave the ITV2 panel show last weekend, having served as team captain for 12 years.

According to The Mirror, meetings have been held over the last few days to discuss her replacement, with Whitmore "top of the wishlist".

"Laura has been a familiar ITV face for over a decade now and she is perfect to retain the show's younger audience," a source told the newspaper.

"Laura also gets on with Keith [Lemon], which is important, and she has taken part on Celebrity Juice in the past."

Our Girl actress Michelle Keegan is also said to be in the frame, even though she has appeared to rule herself out of the running.
