This Morning host Holly Willoughby awkwardly laughs off remark about her age

TV host Holly Willoughby laughed off an awkward comment about her age during a discussion about school milk on This Morning.

The 41-year-old presenter was talking to consumer reporter Alice Beer, 57, about plant-based milk when she commented on Holly's age. "Phil you’re probably the same generation as me that had the little bottles of milk at school," she said.

But Holly, who was born in Brighton in 1981, said she also remembered the days of free school milk. "Did you have the little bottles, Oh, well you’re older than I thought," Alice quipped.

Holly tried to laugh off the comment as she said: "Oh no" but Alice quickly added 'Love you,' reports The Mirror. Earlier this week, the ITV This Morning studio turned tense as Holly was spotted looking unimpressed by Phillip Schofield after he cut her off.

Holly pulled an unimpressed face when her co-host Phil, 60, butted in on Tuesday's show. The pair were interviewing Polly Brooks MBE in the studio to mark the 20th anniversary of the Bali bombings. The awkward moment occurred as the hosts were listening to Polly’s emotional story about losing her husband in the bombings.

As she opened up about having to "rebuild her life", Holly responded: "Wow, gosh, and even at…" But before she could go on any further, Holly was cut off by Phil saying: "43% of your body was burnt I think," as he went on to ask Polly another question.

Holly fell silent after being brutally cut-off mid-sentence, but her face said it all as she looked frustrated and appeared to roll her eyes. One viewer shared the clip to TikTok and captioned it: "Holly's eye roll when Phil cuts her off."
