Holly Willoughby 'hit hard' by Queuegate reaction and 'can't look at social media'

Holly Willoughby has been 'hit hard' following the intense public backlash she and Phillip Schofield received after 'Queuegate'.

Both This Morning presenters were accused of jumping the queue to see the Queen lying in state following her death, and were met with vicious trolling after photos emerged of them at Westminster Hall. Holly, 41, can 'barely look at social media' following the backlash as a petition to get her and Phillip, 60, axed from their ITV show reaches 75,000 signatures.

However, the broadcaster issued a statement saying the presenters 'did not jump the queue, have VIP access or file past the Queen' and were there purely for work reasons. Despite their denial, Holly has faced a barrage of criticism online and is struggling to look at social media, reports the Mirror.
