Amidst controversy surrounding his comments about Meghan Markle, Jeremy Clarkson has reportedly been given a reprieve by his employers.
Following widespread criticism for remarks made in a December 2022 newspaper column, the 63-year-old presenter issued a sincere apology. Despite the backlash, recent reports indicate that Clarkson will retain his position as the host of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
Sources from Stellify informed The Mirror that Clarkson's swift and genuine apology worked in his favor, distinguishing him from figures like Piers Morgan who remained steadfast in their controversial views.
ITV, Clarkson's employer, opted to observe public reaction to new episodes of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire airing this year. With no significant backlash, they have decided to stand by Clarkson.
In a statement, an ITV spokesperson confirmed the continuation of the show, announcing, "There are more brand new episodes of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire that will be aired on ITV later this year."
