It was recently alleged that the host’s time on the ITV programme had come to an end after the controversy that his hateful column about Meghan Markle sparked earlier this year.
This came in contrast to a report that the series would continue with the host, with head of ITV Carolyn McCall saying that Clarkson’s comments about the Duchess of Sussex – which he apologised for – were ‘in now way endorsed’ by the firm.
In a new post shared on Twitter, the 62-year-old assured his followers that he would be continuing in the role on WWTBAM?
‘So many kind messages about today’s reports. But relax. Lisa and I have not split up and I have not been sacked as host of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire,’ he wrote.
Clarkson was also referring to the apparent rumour that he and his partner Lisa Hogan, who he’s been in a relationship with since 2017, had gone their separate ways.
Clarkson has been at the helm of the gameshow since 2018, having been cast on a revamped version of the programme.
WWTBAM? was previously hosted by Chris Tarrant, between 1998 and 2014.

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire airs on ITV and is available to watch on ITVX.
