Cat Deeley made her hosting debut on This Morning on Monday, November 13.
The 47-year-old presented the ITV programme alongside Rylan Clark.
The TV presenter stepped in as host for a week as bosses continue to find permanent replacements for Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield.
Starting Monday’s show, Cat told viewers: “Can you believe they’ve let two of the naughtiest people on TV on live TV together.”
Rylan replied: “Now this is officially the end. Babe it is so lovely to see you.”
The 47-year-old later revealed she had “forgotten” she had been a This Morning host before when she and Paul O’Grady co-presented for a special 60th birthday celebration episode for Cilla Black.
A source previously told The UK Sun: “Cat is seasoned pro and execs have been keen to get her in for a while. She takes live TV in her stride and his really witty and personable with guests.”

“She is comfortable interviewing both popstars and politicians, so if it goes well she could be a much more permanent solution to Holly leaving,” the source continued. “Cat would be safe captain to steady the ship.”
“Rylan was a resounding success too so fans can expect to see a lot more of him in the future.”
An ITV spokeswoman previously confirmed: “Cat Deeley and Rylan will host This Morning together on Monday and Tuesday, Cat will host with Craig Doyle on Wednesday, then Alison Hammond and Craig on Thursday. Alison and Dermot will host the show together as usual on Friday.”
