Holly Willoughby defended by fans as she opens up on fresh parenting challenge during This Morning absence

Holly Willoughby appears to have been defended by fans after she opened up about her fresh parenting challenge as she looks ahead at 2023. The presenter is still currently absent from her role on This Morning having not returned to the show alongside Phillip Schofield this week.

Viewers of the ITV daytime programme were surprised to see Josie Gibson and Andi Peters at the helm of the show as it returned on Tuesday (January 3) for the first episode of the new year. While Holly and Phillip did appear for a string of pre-recorded episodes last week, the pair haven't hosted the show live since early December.

Phillip, 60, has already revealed that he has returned home from a New Year break to Copenhagen, Denmark, while Holly, 41, has remained largely quiet during her break. However, a photo did appear of the blonde TV beauty on the Instagram account of her brand, Wylde Moon.
