Ant and Dec revisit the “queue-gate” controversy, bringing renewed attention to a dispute involving Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield in 2022. The controversy centered on accusations that the This Morning duo skipped a 13-hour public queue to see Queen Elizabeth II lying in state.
Reports say Willoughby and Schofield responded by stating they were present for professional reasons, specifically to file a report for ITV. The later fallout is described as contributing to turmoil around their careers.
Across the coverage, the core facts remain the same: the incident is tied to the Queen’s lying-in-state period, the allegation concerns bypassing a long queue, and the hosts’ stated justification relates to television work for ITV. The outlets present the renewed comments as a retrospective look at the episode rather than introducing new verified details.
