Holly Willoughby ignores This Morning backlash as she cuddles up to husband in rare PDA

Holly Willoughby has ignored backlash to her This Morning absence as she took to social media with a new snap of herself and her husband. The presenter was 'missing' from the ITV daytime show on Monday (June 26) with Josie Gibson and Craig Doyle both filling in for the star.

While there was no explanation for her day off, which irked some viewers, Craig did confirm that the 42-year-old blonde beauty would be back on screens as normal from Tuesday (June 27). However, it did come after she was spotted sporting a festival-ready look as she boarded a helicopter alongside her husband Dan Baldwin and some pals and jetted to Glastonbury.

Holly was snapped heading to the huge festival in Somerset wearing a pair of denim shorts and a chic, colourful jacket said to cost £1,000, which she paired with some chunky black boots.

She topped off her look with a large hat and a pair of oversized sunglasses as she headed to the three-day festival, which was headlined this year Arctic Monkeys, Guns ‘n’ Roses and Sir Elton John. TV producer Dan, who has been married to the presenter since 2007, opted for a more casual look, wearing a simple pair of shorts and a T-shirt as he joined his wife on the helicopter ride.

Holly and Dan were later reportedly spotted enjoying the weekend's festivities with former footballer Peter Crouch and his wife and model Abbey Clancy.

And now Holly has confirmed herself that she spent her weekend enjoy the musical extravaganza by posting a rare photo of herself and Dan, with whom she shares her three children Harry, Belle and Chester, packing on a small but rara PDA.

"Glasto 2023," she simply captioned the photo as she shared it with her 8.3 million followers with a heart emoji. It showed the sun having already gone down on Worthy Farm as one of the trio of headliners took to the stage. Dan stood with his arm around his wife, who was still sporting her festival attire.

With her back to the camera, she could be seen wearing a white crocheted cover-up that had been tied with a black belt to show off her sensational curves which she appeared to be wearing over a black dress before completing her look with a black fedora.

And her fans and followers were quick to respond to her post. @debsnbilly1982 said: "Woo hoo I hope you had a blast Holly." @scoops028 wrote: "Aww brilliant hope you enjoyed yourself." @colleen.cunningham.18 commented: "Look's amazing glad you had the best time glad to see a Scotland flag in the picture lol.2 @itsuptocesca replied: "Beautiful moment captured!" @sacha4d added: "Ahhh such a cute pic."
