This Morning host supported by co-star as he makes family health admission
This Morning star Craig Doyle received a heart-warming show of support from his co-host Rochelle Humes on Wednesday (May 28) as he shared news of his mother being in hospital.
On today's episode of the popular ITV show, Craig and Rochelle delivered the latest updates from the UK and around the world.
Following a chat with Deirdre Sanders about the upcoming phone-in segment on in-law issues, Craig took a moment to send his best to his mum in hospital.
Deirdre said: "We're here to help with any in-law problem," prompting Craig to jest: "Don't know what she's talking about. My in-laws are perfect, morning Dorothy."
Craig quickly added: "Can I say hello to my mum who's in hospital. Hello mum, how are you? Have you got the sound up? Good girl," reports Wales Online.

Rochelle chimed in with a warm message: "Hello mum! Hope you're good. Love her."
The duo were filling in for regular hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard, who are taking a break during the half-term holiday. Earlier in the week, Paddy McGuinness and Alison Hammond had taken the reins.
At the beginning of today's programme, Rochelle praised Craig for his achievement in last month's London Marathon.
"You're stuck with Craig and I today, sorry about that," she said, before turning to Craig: "How are you? I've not seen you for a little while and we've got a lot to catch up on.
"Since I've last seen you, you've taken on a big challenge and absolutely nailed it... The London Marathon."
A photo was then displayed showing Craig proudly posing with his medal, alongside EastEnders icon Adam Woodyatt and TV host Jenni Falconer.
Craig completed The London Marathon last month
"Ah fantastic! [Jenni] had to have her knee up because it was sweaty day, let's just say," Craig shared about the marathon experience.
"I haven't done one in about 20 years and I thought I was the same as I was 20 years ago, I'm definitely not. It was really, really tough, so congratulations to all of you who finished the marathon... I was slow, I enjoyed it, the crowds were unbelievable."
In other segments of today's programme, Craig and Rochelle spoke to renowned opera singer Lesley Garrett, who revealed her private struggle with cancer.
Additionally, Race Across the World contestants Fin and Sioned stopped by the studio to discuss the latest developments in the popular BBC travel show, while Sharon Marshall delivered the latest soap news directly from the set of Emmerdale.

Outlander favourite Lauren Lyle, 31, reprises her role as the title character with a riveting new crime to solve. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 1 Lauren Lyle is returning as Karen Pirie. Credit: ITV The ITV programme, based on author Val McDermid's A Darker Domain, will air in July after a two year wait. Show regulars such as Sex Education star Chris Jenks, The Curse's Emer Kenny and acting legend James Cosmo will also be back for the latest cold case. In the new instalment, Karen has been promoted to Detective Inspector and seemingly given the authority she has long been fighting for. But just as she's getting into the swing of her powerful new role, she is assigned an infamous unsolved case that will put her under intense scrutiny; from her boss, from the media, and ultimately, from sinister forces that would rather the past stayed in the past. The 1984 case of Catriona and Adam Grant has confounded investigators and intrigued the public like no other. Catriona, the charming young heiress to a vast oil fortune, and her two year old son Adam, were brutally kidnapped at gunpoint outside a fish and chip shop in Fife. The ransom notes that followed stirred up an uncontrollable press storm, but when the culprits fell silent, the police faltered, and Catriona and Adam were never seen again. Now, a man's body has been discovered, with indisputable links to the original kidnap. As Karen delves deeper into what happened in the autumn of 1984, political grudges and painful secrets start to reveal themselves. Meanwhile, Jeremy Clarkson will be back on screen for ITV after his hit quiz show landed another series. The presenter and journalist, 65, has appeared in programmes such as Top Gear, The Grand Tour and Clarkson's Farm. In 2018, Jeremy became the host of Who Wants To Be a Millionaire.

Strictly's Wynne Evans wanted to 'end his life' after BBC scandals as he breaks silence on 'lowest point'
Wynne Evans appeared on ITV This Morning on Wednesday. Wynne Evans has opened up on his Strictly Come Dancing experience saying the aftermath left him feeling suicidal. The star, who appeared on the 2024 series with professional Katya Jones, joined Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley on the This Morning sofa on Wednesday to talk about his life since leaving the BBC dancing show. Wynne admitted he didn't have the 'fabulous' Strictly experience many other celebrities had. The star hit headlines several times during and after his time on the BBC show. During filming, the TV personality was shown grabbing his Strictly Come Dancing partner Katya's waist before she pushed his hand away, in a moment that sparked widespread controversy. But the star later insisted the uncomfortable moment was a joke. He then came under fire for using the sexual term 'spit roast' to Janette Manrara during a Strictly photocall, later insisting it was directed at Jamie Borthwick and nothing to do with Janette. The graphic comment got Evans axed from the Strictly tour, before a video emerged of him sending a sex toy to his co-star Jamie, which was again met with criticism. Speaking about the aftermath of these incidents, Wynne told Cat and Ben: "I used to think there's no smoke without fire, but boy has my idea changed of that." Cat went on to say that the media storm surrounding Wynne was 'relentless' and said: "This couldn't have been good for you mentally?" He replied, getting upset: "I've had clinical depression since 2016 and I want to talk about it today because I want other people to find strength in that. It took me to the darkest spot of my life when the headlines keep coming and coming and coming, when something gets picked up and it just doesn't stop. "I was at my lowest I wanted to end my life, I would have if I wasn't surrounded by people and at one point, one of the newspapers was so relentless I remember saying to my girlfriend, I remember saying 'I have to kill myself', 'I have to because this is what they want'. It's the same people who were writing 'be kind' a few years ago are still relentlessly going after you day after day after day and that is exhausting. "You can't eat you can't sleep, you're just full of these thoughts all the time and it just takes over your life." *If you're struggling and need to talk, the Samaritans operate a free helpline open 24/7 on 116 123.

Emmerdale and Coronation Street face major changes
Peter Fincham was the former Director of Television at ITV before Kevin Lygo took over. Fincham has suggested that, due to budget concerns at ITV, Emmerdale could move filming away from Yorkshire and merge production with Coronation Street in Manchester. The ex-ITV boss has predicted that following the recent announcement of daytime changes at the broadcaster, it's likely executives are looking at similar measures for the two soaps. It's the question on everyone's minds... Is Robert back for good? Read more here: Discussing the soaps on The TV Podcast, Fincham said: "You've got Coronation Street being made in Manchester, Emmerdale in Leeds. 'Could you imagine, rather like the daytime consolidation, that ITV will decide to have them both made in the same place under one umbrella? Big savings. 'You still keep Emmerdale set in Yorkshire, but it could be made in Manchester and Salford, which is a bigger hub for ITV. 'I don't think that's inconceivable — it might be being planned as we speak." Emmerdale is currently made in north Leeds, while Coronation Street is mostly filmed in MediaCity in Salford. As the ex-ITV boss adds: "The new hub for Coronation Street in Salford, it cost many, many millions of pounds and it was better facilities for all the people who worked on it in the old place in the middle of Manchester."

"Both are uniquely set in Manchester and Leeds and that production model will continue for the long term. "It's pure speculation to say otherwise." The change follows news that ITV is making major changes to its daytime scheduling in 2026. The overhaul will see Good Morning Britain (GMB) extended by half an hour from January 2026, while Lorraine Kelly's morning talk show will be reduced to 30 minutes for 30 weeks of the year.
