Senior members of the ruling Conservative party had reportedly made the departure of Nick Timothy and Fiona Hill a condition of allowing May to stay on after losing her parliamentary majority in Thursday's vote.
In the meantime, I want to place on record my sorrow for the Conservative Members of Parliament who lost their seats, several of whom are close friends.
Several Conservative lawmakers have warned that May can not carry on indefinitely, after throwing away a 17-seat majority in the 650-seat House of Commons.
31% of voters said that Boris as leader would make them less likely to vote Conservative as opposed to just 23% who said it would make them more likely to vote Conservative.
The statement came five hours after another in which the government welcomed a commitment from the DUP on "the principles of an outline agreement to support the Conservative Government on a Confidence and Supply basis". Former Conservative cabinet minister Owen Paterson, asked about her future, said: "Let's see how it pans out".
Joining forces with the hardline unionist Protestant party also threatens London's neutrality in Northern Ireland, which is key to the delicate balance of power in a province once plagued by violence.
But with May's personal authority in tatters, there were reports that moves were under way within her Conservative Party to dislodge her, while opposition Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn was insisting she could be ousted and he could replace her.
"The mandate she's got is lost Conservative seats, lost votes, lost support and lost confidence", Corbyn told supporters in his Islington North constituency in north London.
"We had 10 percent more voters than in 2015, and those voters were mainly younger voters - and they were really attracted by Labour's promise to abolish tuition fees", said Edward Morgan-Jones, a politics lecturer at the University of Kent in Canterbury.

Dhawan was the first of the pair to reach his half-century with his eighth four, with Kohli reaching the same landmark soon after. Chasing 192 to win, India lost opener Rohit Sharma for 12 runs when he was caught behind off the bowling of Morne Morkel.
Mrs. May is due to meet with the 1922 Committee on Tuesday evening after meeting with DUP leader Arlene Foster. Never mind that she herself has offered few details about Brexit and what it will mean: May called this a Brexit election, declared herself the strong and stable candidate, promised tough negotiations with Europe and clearly expected to win a larger majority. But the ballot-box humiliation has seriously - and possibly mortally - wounded her leadership just as Britain is about to begin complex exit talks with the European Union.
"I sought, and to be fair to the prime minister, received a categoric assurance that in talking to the DUP that there would be no suggestion of any rollback on LGBTI rights in the rest of the United Kingdom", she told the BBC.
John McDonnell, Labour's shadow Chancellor, also said the party would put forward a Queen's Speech and urge other parties to support it.
It risks upsetting Northern Ireland by aligning London closely with the pro-British side in the divided province, and increases the chance that Britain will fall out of the European Union in 2019 without a deal.
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, riding a wave of acclaim for his party's unexpectedly strong showing, called on May to resign.
She seems secure for the immediate future, because senior Conservatives don't want to plunge the party into a damaging leadership contest.
Britain's typically pro-Conservative press savaged May on Saturday and questioned whether she could remain in power.
"May stares into the abyss", said The Times' Saturday edition while the Daily Mail led with "Tories Turn On Theresa".
