ITV deny Holly and Phil 'were not on official Westminster list' to see Queen
ITV have shut down reports Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield were not on official Westminster list to see Queen lying-in-state as part of the world's media.
This news comes after the presenting duo received wide-spread backlash for appearing to "queue jump" to visit Westminster Hall after their media passes granted them special access. In a latest twist in the story, The Mail on Sunday claimed a source told them that Holly and Phil created a “hoo-ha” when they arrived with two colleagues at Westminster Hall.
The source involved in the media list told The Mail on Sunday: “When they got there, their names weren't on the list so there were some discussions and – after some back and forth – Phil and Holly were given access and they were ushered through. The whole thing caused a bit of a hoo-ha.” ITV leapt to Holly and Phil's defence after they drew criticism, by posting a statement on the This Morning Instagram last weekend.
