The presenter, 42, was reportedly pulled from Wednesday's programme (October 4) after discovering the alleged threat and was later given protection by police.
Sources have told the Sun that the star was watched by a 'police guard' after a 36-year-old man was arrested at a flat in Harlow, Essex on Wednesday. "Police are treating this as a credible conspiracy to kidnap Holly," said a source.

The suspect was in police custody on Wednesday night as a police car remained stationed outside his Essex apartment. One neighbour told the Sun: “I saw him being led out of his flat in handcuffs last night at about nine o’clock.” The news outlet has claimed that a 'round-the-clock police guard' had been posted outside Holly’s home, in London, where she lives with her family.
