Holly Willoughby spotted looking 'happy' as she reunites with This Morning host
Holly Willoughby was all smiles as she was spotted partying with a former co-star recently, and people couldn't help but comment on how "happy" she looked to be having fun Telly favourite and ex-This Morning star Holly Willoughby appeared to be in high spirits at a recent event with a former colleague. Her Instagram followers couldn't help but comment on how "happy" she looked as Holly, 44, shared a clip of them dancing away together. Nostalgic for the vibes of Glastonbury Festival, Holly captioned the post: "Just found this on the camera roll.... Nothing like a bit of @glastofest crowd control @dermotoleary @andrew_chaplin_director. Impromptu limbo anyone?" In the video, Holly and Dermot O'Leary are seen engulfed in the festival spirit, creating an impromptu dance tunnel while swaying to Pulp last month. Onlookers took turns ducking under their arms in a spontaneous limbo challenge, clearly enjoying the moment. The pair, who have both presented This Morning, looked to be thoroughly enjoying themselves, beckoning other revellers to join their dance. Dermot humorously suggested they might even embark on a tour following the positive reception. The post quickly racked up more than 4,000 likes, drawing a flurry of excited comments about Holly's glowing appearance. A fan expressed: "Looks like you had a fantastic time Holly, it's so good to see you so happy and relaxed." While another added: "Oh my goodness, I would have loved to have been one of those people!" A third replied: "Love that you are partying with the general public and just having a good time. "Wish more celebs would be like this, letting their hair down and just being themselves and not worrying about private areas and stuff - just in with the general public." Another supporter expressed similar sentiment, writing: "Holly, a real gem - with people, best way to be. Top girl." A further comment encouraged the star: "Dust your boots off Holly - go girl!" Holly confirmed her departure from This Morning in October 2023 after a significant 14-year tenure, citing personal reasons, saying it was "for me and my family." She had previously stepped back from the show in 2023. Then, in July 2024, ex security guard Gavin Plumb was sentenced to a minimum of 15 years and 85 days after being found guilty of plotting to kidnap, rape and murder the star. In light of her experiences, Holly's statement read: "I have let ITV know today that after 14 years, I will not be returning to This Morning. It's been an honour to just be part of its story and I know this story has many chapters left to go. "Sadly, however, I now feel I have to make this decision for me and my family. I will miss you all so much." Her exit came following revelations that her former co-host Phillip Schofield had departed amid allegations of deceit over a workplace relationship. Holly has since extended her gratitude to those involved with the show throughout her career. Holly stated: "This is such a difficult goodbye, you are incredible and I forever will be proud of what we've done together. Thank you to everyone at ITV for being supportive. To every guest who has sat on our sofa, thank you. "Most of all, thank you to the wonderful viewers. You've been so loyal, so supportive and the very best company every day."

Eamonn Holmes unveils pricey new project as he faces off against Ruth in divorce
EXCLUSIVE As Eamonn Holmes faces steep legal fees related to his divorce from Ruth Langsford, he has decided to start flogging tickets for an evening with him on stage Eamonn Holmes is selling £65 tickets for a talk about his career on the telly as he begins a divorce battle with estranged wife Ruth Langsford. Telly's former golden couple have engaged high-powered lawyers as they seek to divide up their assets – with Eamonn having to stump a fortune for a rented flat away from his £3.6m former marital home in Surrey, where Ruth has remained. Now the 65-year-old GB host – dating marriage guidance counsellor Katie Alexander – is seeking to rake in some extra money to help cover the legal fees by taking to the stage. He'll appear before a theatre audience in Hertfordshire later this year for show called 45 Years in Showbiz – An Evening with Eamonn Holmes. Fans are told: 'From ground breaking news coverage to beloved morning television presenter, Holmes is a household name known for his wit, warmth and unmistakable charm. 'Now he takes to the stage to share personal stories, career highlights and behind-the-scenes insights. Expect laughter, nostalgia and surprises as we honour a remarkable showbiz career. 'Don't miss this unforgettable night paying tribute to a broadcasting legend who has shaped the face of British television for nearly half a century!' General admission to the event in November at The Spotlight in Hoddesdon cost £34. But £66.50 VIP audience members get: 'Early entry to the venue, a VIP lanyard on arrival, premium seating, a meet and greet with Eamonn Holmes, a professional photo with Eamonn to take home on the night, a digital copy of the photo available to download within 24 hours, and a signed poster.' The news anchor's newfound happiness with Katie, 43, comes after his ex Ruth, 65, reportedly brought in lawyers to make sure he would never get her share of their home. The divorcing Loose Women star has been granted a severance of joint tenancy of the six-bed pile they bought in 2014. The move, revealed in public documents, means that if Ruth were to die, her share of the house in Weybridge would not go to Eamonn. The couple, both 65, met in 1997. They had son, Jack, in 2002 and wed in 2010, moving into the home on a private estate four years later. But they announced they were splitting last year. Eamonn recently shared his secret to a "happy relationship" while on GB News, saying that when it comes to politics, he likes to be on the same wavelength as his partner. During a chat with Ellie Costello about her husband, he asked: "Would his politics and would his views on things have influenced you in some way?" She responded: "Not initially, no, but we do have the same politics. I think it makes life easier if you do. What about you? What do you think?" Eamonn agreed, adding that "any partners" he has ever had "think the same as me".
