Three years after stepping away from ITV’s “This Morning,” Holly Willoughby is poised for a dazzling return to the spotlight. The beloved former TV host recently stirred excitement on social media, hinting at a major comeback by launching her own YouTube channel, “Holly Willoughby Together.” At 45, Holly, renowned for fronting shows like “Dancing On Ice” and “I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!,” is confirmed to unveil a new program reminiscent of her “This Morning” days by the month’s end. Holly shared an enticing snapshot on Instagram featuring a pink backdrop adorned with the show’s title in striking red letters, captioning it simply: “Coming soon…”
On the newly created Instagram page promoting this YouTube venture, the biography tantalizingly states, “We are almost ready to get together… @hollywilloughby,” complete with a direct link to her burgeoning channel. This has only amplified fan anticipation.
Offering a sneak peek into what lies ahead, one of Holly’s close friends confided to The Mail on Sunday about the emerging project. “After 25 years in television, Holly is ready to forge her own path,” the source revealed. As traditional daytime TV seems to be waning, creating fresh, engaging content has become imperative.
The insider further elaborated: “Holly is thrilled and sees this as an avant-garde endeavor. The digital landscape is rapidly evolving with platforms like TikTok taking center stage. Holly identifies this as a golden opportunity to introduce something groundbreaking, cementing a promising future beyond her previous work.”
Her exciting announcement has drawn reactions from numerous friends and colleagues. Among them, Alison Hammond chimed in on Holly’s post, exclaiming: “This is everything.” Alice Beer, a former companion from “This Morning,” also contributed her enthusiasm, writing: “Exciting Holly! Go girl!” The buzz around Holly’s new chapter continues to build, resonating deeply with fans and peers alike.
Fans also said wish her luck, with some saying: “Can’t wait to see more, have missed your laughter and happy personality.”
Her departure came months after her co-host Phillip Schofield left ITV after admitting to an “unwise, but not illegal” affair with a young male colleague on the show. She continued to present ITV’s Dancing on Ice until it was announced in March 2025 that the show would be “rested” with no further plans for another series.
Since then, she has been working behind screens with her husband Dan Baldwin’s TV production company, Hungry Bear, which included shows like Gladiators and Michael McIntyre’s Big Show. Last year, Holly also worked as a presenter for Netflix reality show, Celebrity Bear Hunt.
According to Mirror, another insider believed the YouTube show is her “pathway to getting back on actual TV”. They added: “This is her way of reminding the top TV executives how good she is, how well-connected she is, how great she is as a presenter and why ITV bosses should look at her.
“Now all three of her shows have been dropped, this is Holly’s only option and she’s got to make it work.”
