Ant announced he would be taking a break from all presenting duties until 2019 following a difficult year, leaving fans to speculate who would replace him alongside co-host Dec, 42, for the show’s 18th series.
While Ant was absent for the final shows of his and Dec’s series, Saturday Night Takeaway, Dec remained at the helm and hosted it by himself.
Over the summer, it was confirmed by ITV that the pair’s Australian-based reality series, I’m A Celeb… would return without Ant, as he continues to recover. And fans were left wondering whether Dec would continue to present on his own.
Meanwhile, Ant first sought rehab treatment in June 2017 after becoming addicted to prescription drugs and alcohol following a botched knee surgery in 2015.
