First look at Holly Willoughby on Dancing On Ice as she makes TV return three months after quitting This Morning

ITV has given the first glimpse of Holly Willoughby's return to TV as she is set to front the new series of Dancing On Ice alongside a brand new co-host. The presenter, 42, hasn't been seen on screen since October when she shocked fans by announcing she had quit This Morning.

It came after a turbulent few months on the ITV daytime programme following the sudden exit of her former friend and co-star of 14 years Phillip Schofield, who left the show after admitting to an 'unwise but not illegal' affair. Holly continued presenting the programme after the 61-year-old's exit in May, but just months later decided to step down from the role.

On October 10, 2023, Holly shared a statement to Instagram to announce that she was leaving the show after 14 years. She said it had been an 'honour to just be part of its story', but said it was a call she had to make for herself and her family.
