Anthony McPartlin
The 'This Morning' star is rumoured to be the front runner for the job.
The 'Good Morning Britain' host also revealed he had 'partied with Ant in the past'.
'It’s not something anybody should be talking about.'
'This is happening to people all over the world. People, for whatever reason, they get into a rut.'
The live shows have also got a new home.
The star could face a prison sentence and an unlimited fine.
But Dec will still be presenting alone.
'I just want him to get better, because we’ve all grown up seeing those guys on telly.'
Ant is taking time out of the spotlight after returning to rehab.
Can he bounce back?
