'Uncomfortable and disconnected' Holly Willoughby 'wanted to say more' in This Morning Phillip Schofield statement

Holly Willoughby 'wanted to say more' in her opening statement on This Morning, a body language expert has claimed. The presenter made her much-awaited comeback appearance on the ITV daytime show on Monday (June 5) where she was joined by Josie Gibson.

After a brief 'Hi' to viewers watching at home, Holly turned to Josie and thanked her for being with her before launching into a statement. It comes as viewers saw her on-screen for the first time in a fortnight after she extended her planned half-term break following Phillip Schofield's shock exit.

It has since been reported that the friendship between Holly and Phil is on the rocks after he admitted to the 'unwise but not illegal' affair and also confessed to lying to his co-stars and employers. Following his bombshell statement, Holly later released her own saying that she felt 'hurt' that she had been lied to.
