Holly Willoughby has made a return on social media after keeping a low profile amid Philip Schofield's sensational ITV This Morning exit and affair confession. She took to her Wylde Moon Instagram page on Thursday (June 1) to share a gorgeous make-up free selfie.
However, she is yet to update her own personal Instagram account, with the last post dated three weeks ago. It comes as Philip spoke out amid the controversy last night in an interview with The Sun.
The 61-year-old opened up on feeling "broken" following his confession of being romantic with a younger, male ITV colleague. He also revealed he hasn't heard anything from his former This Morning co-star Holly.

But it would seem she is active online as she posted a straight-out-the-shower snap on her lifestyle brand account hours before Phil's interview. The 42-year-old uploaded a make-up free and damp hair look alongside the caption: “We all love the sunshine, but it can do some sneaky damage to our hair if we don't protect it.
"Holly's hair-guru @cilerpeksah_hairstylist is here with her professional tips to make sure your hair stays safe all summer long. Tap the link in bio to see how to protect yours from the sun, the sea, and the swimming pools."
She has recently been spotted enjoying some family time in Portugal, away from the chaos back home. The Wylde Moon selfie attracted plenty of attention from fans, who were quick to comment on the picture.
Chloelouisegroom replied: "Keep rising above it and continue to be professional." Katiemary65 gushed: "Gosh you are so beautiful."
Paulajm70 put: "Hope you are enjoying some quality time with your beautiful family holly." Lisltudor added: "Never thought about the sun damaging hair - this is a great post!"
Prior to the exposure of Phil's affair, reports circulated that him and Holly were 'barely speaking' amid a 'rift' between the duo. In wake of the scandal, Holly admitted she was 'hurt' Phil had 'lied' to her when he did admit the truth.
Speaking to the BBC, Phil revealed he didn't believe anyone a This Morning knew about the romance at the time. "To my knowledge, I mean, somebody has to know something for there to be a rumour later on. I didn’t believe that anybody knew." He said.
He went on the say he had not told Holly about it: "No, God, no. That’s a bigger question. Because we have, our make-up room was like a sanctuary, has always been a sanctuary.
"So you tell everything in that room. Holly knows everything about me. I know everything about Holly, Holly did not know. Nobody knew."
Phil and Holly presented This Morning together since 2009. The mum-of-three is scheduled to return to the ITV show on Monday after an extended half-term break.
