According to a report in The Mirror today, at least one male and one female anchor will be dropped from the programme as part of a drive to slash costs by 20%.
It is thought that the hosts - who include Kate Garraway, Andrew Castle, Ben Shephard and Emma Crosby - are now "anxious beyond belief", though insiders have already tipped Shephard and Crosby to survive the cull.
A source said: "Everyone is absolutely dreading the results of the review. There will very likely be some big-name casualties."
Recent changes at GMTV have seen ITV taking full control of the breakfast slot and long-serving editor Martin Frizell announcing that he was to depart.
A spokesperson for ITV confirmed that "all areas" of GMTV are currently being reviewed.
