CAROL McGiffin has revealed all about working at ITV with Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, saying it's "cut-throat, competitive and ruthless".
The outspoken Loose Women star, 63, did not hold back as she opened up about the "dysfunctional" set up behind the scenes.
Carol recently blasted Phillip Schofield, 61, as "fake" and insisted he didn't deserve a big send-off from This Morning after his fall from grace.
And now, while discussing the ongoing accusations of toxicity at ITV, Carol has slammed the channel in her column for Best magazine.
She wrote: "They go on about the 'ITV Daytime Family' being cosy best mates, all caring and kind, but in my opinion it's about as dysfunctional as they come.

"It's cut-throat, competitive and ruthless, and can be quite unpleasant, and as soon as your face doesn't fit anymore, or you disagree with their narrative, you're out the door."
The Loose Women star, who left the show earlier this year after clashing with bosses, added that she feels the people who run the channel are too arrogant to truly know who their audience is.
Phillip, 61 — who was axed from This Morning — originally left over a growing feud with pal and co-star Holly Willoughby.
His departure was also fuelled by his brother Tim being outed as a peado.
However, six days later, he made a bombshell revelation about a "consensual on-off relationship" with a toyboy lover who worked on This Morning - leaving him no choice but to quit ITV altogether.
Carol previously laid into Phil and Holly when interviewed by GB News host Dan Wootton.
When asked if Phillip and Holly Willoughby were nice to her while she was on their daytime show, Carol said: “Phillip was there but he wasn’t very nice, to be honest.
“He treated me as though it’s like ‘oh another Loose Woman with another book’ and I kind of get that but it was just like he was so not interested that it was a struggle.
“I was giggling and laughing actually because I couldn’t believe he was being so bloody rude.”

Carol continued to add that while that was her only bad experience with the star, she’d heard a lot of stories about Phillip being “unpleasant to a lot of people.”
