An episode of ITV1's Mr & Mrs featuring Tito Jackson will be re-edited before airing.

Presenter Phillip Schofield revealed on Twitter that the programme had been tweaked following Tito's brother Michael's death last Thursday.

"Just been talking to the producer of Mr & Mrs. Having to re-edit this Saturday's show as it features Tito Jackson. There was a lot of MJ talk," wrote Schofield.

"It will go out, just with a sensitive re-edit and a statement before."

In another post, he added: "Think [Tito] would like it to go out for his charity's sake, tough call though."

Mr & Mrs, which is hosted by Schofield and Fern Britton, airs on ITV1 at 7:30pm on Saturday. Tito and his partner Sonia Galindo are among the famous couples hoping to win £30,000 for a charity of their choice.
