This Morning viewers complain over Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard’s outfits as they return

They're back from their two-week break

Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard made their return to This Morning today following their two-week Easter break.

The pair have been away from the daytime show for a couple of weeks as Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary filled in for them.

But on Monday (April 15), Ben and Cat were back and viewers quickly shared their thoughts – and it seems they had a similar complaint to make.

Returning to the programme, Cat looked casual but chic in a yellow t-shirt and shiny looking trousers. She finished off the look with platform gold heels.

Meanwhile, Ben wore a bright blue polo t-shirt and trousers.

However, Ben and Cat‘s casual outfits sparked some complaints from viewers today as some joked whether they were still in holiday mode!

One person said on X: “First time watching #ThisMorning with Cat and Ben. Is it dress down Monday?”

Another wrote: “Cat and Ben right pair of scruffs, reckon they still on holiday.”

Sorry, but Cat and Ben are just too casually dressed and not looking professional.

Someone else added: “Ben and Cat look like they just grabbed the nearest [bleep] out of their closet.”

Meanwhile, a fourth complained: “Sorry, but Cat and Ben are just too casually dressed and not looking professional. T-shirts are for home, or dropping kids at school, not presenting a TV programme. Come on This Morning, smarten them up a bit please.”

Others were delighted to have Ben and Cat back on the This Morning sofa. One gushed on Instagram: “Love these two and love their choice of clothes casual and smart mixing it up! Instead of the same old same.”

Another wrote: “So happy to see Cat & Ben back.”

Someone else defended their casual outfits, writing on Instagram: “Nice to be so relaxed and not dressed to the nines.”

Meanwhile, a bookies recently predicted Ben and Cat’s future on This Morning. According InstantCasino, odds are at 4/1 on Ben and Cat remaining on This Morning in 2025.

Odds are at 5/1 for them to be presenting in 2026 and at 6/4 on them hosting in 2027 and later.
