Rochelle Humes comes dangerously close to a wardrobe malfunction

Rochelle Humes came dangerously close to suffering a wardrobe malfunction as she tried ‘toe yoga’ while wearing a front split skirt on Monday’s This Morning.

During the awkward segment the presenter, 32, –  was sat on a chair while trying the exercises which included lifting a towel up with her foot.

However as she moved her leg up to pick it up off the ground she almost revealed too much to viewers at home due to the purple leather skirt’s split.

Rochelle was presenting alongside Eammon Holmes who was brought in at the last minute to host alongside The Saturdays star after both Vernon Kay and Alison Hammond fell ill.   

Many viewers took to Twitter to comment on Rochelle’s mishap, with one writing:  ‘Rochelle….we’ve just seen your pants.’

Another commented: ‘Whoa Rochelle! Nearly saw what u had for breakfast.’

A third who was in shock posted: ‘I think we are seeing a lot more then Rochelle’s feet right now.’

A fourth wrote: ‘Well, this segment is pretty ‘revealing’ if I may say so!’ while another said: ‘I think we are seeing a lot more then Rochelle’s feet right now #ThisMorning.’ 

It came after Eamonn, 61, sent his well-wishes to Alison as he took her place on the This Morning couch after she was struck by a mystery illness.

Alison was due to appear alongside Rochelle on Monday’s show, while Vernon was due to appear with Rochelle on Tuesday’s show.

It has since been announced that Vernon had tested positive for coronavirus and Alison was unwell – so would not be making their respective planned appearances. 

Speaking on the show, the Northern Irish star said: ‘It was supposed to be Alison and Rochelle today, but Alison’s not well, so get well soon. And just when you thought you got rid of me after seven weeks, like a bad penny, I turn up again.’  

Oh dear: Many viewers took to Twitter to comment on Rochelle’s mishap, with one writing: ‘Rochelle….we’ve just seen your pants’

Saving the day, Eamonn Tweeted on Sunday: ‘But just when u thought you’d got rid of me …. sickness with @AlisonHammond and @vernonkay means I’m off the bench. Get well soon to them but I have my Boots on and I’m ready to play…  

‘Monday and Tues line up is now myself and Rochelle Humes. Hope you can join us.’ 

The star had been presenting the show with wife Ruth Langsford over summer as Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield took their annual six-week break.

It comes after Vernon said he was ‘absolutely gutted’ to be missing out on the guest presenting gig. 

He told The Sun: ‘I’m absolutely gutted that because of a positive Covid test I’m no longer able to present on This Morning next week with Rochelle.’

The I’m A Celebrity winner was also gearing up to cover Steve Wright’s Radio 2 show, a gig he has stepped down from in light of his diagnosis.

Vernon added: ‘Nor [can I] do Radio 2 guest hosting and Steve Wright’s cover, two iconic shows which I’ve been a fan of for decades.’

MailOnline has reached out to Vernon’s representatives for further comment.

Eamonn announced on last Monday’s episode of This Morning that he and Ruth, also 61, were in their final week of presenting the show for the summer break. 

Bad news: On Sunday, Eamonn announced he would act as a stand-in replacement for Vernon Kay (pictured) after the presenter tested positive for Covid. Vernon, 47, was set to front the popular morning show alongside Rochelle this week
