Holly Willoughby's return to the This Morning sofa will be delayed after the TV presenter revealed she has been struck down by shingles.
Taking to her Instagram story on Sunday, the 42-year-old wrote: “Hi, just to let you know, I may be away for the rest of the week as I have shingles. I’ll be back as soon as I’m better. Huge love."
Shingles is a painful infection affecting one in four adults in their lifetime. Also known as herpes zoster, the infection can cause a painful rash which can takes weeks to heal and disappear. Shingles is caused by the varicella-zoster virus, the virus that also causes chickenpox, with more than 90 per cent of the world's population having it.
