In fairness I think Phil made sure she never would gel with anyone else. He got her that role, literally trained her and ensured that she would only feel comfortable in his presence.
The word you're looking for is 'groomed'. He 'groomed' her ... rather than 'trained' her. But I take your point.

When everything came out about the runner last year (? The year before?) she was still besties with him. They fell out when he stood up in court and said he knew his brother was a... everything grew cold. Then a huge thing came out about the runner and she publicly stopped being friends with him. I believe Holly knew about the runner and thought the affair was fine. Then she found out he knew about his brother and while knowing had allowed his brother to be around her kids on holidays, parties, BBQs etc but thought it was best not to say anything about that side of things or was advised not to and made it all about the runner. If you watch this morning after hile was in court for his brother they changed. I'm also sure she didn't wish him happy birthday on insta and that was before they publicly stopped being friends (could be wrong though!). She tries (or her management tries) to keep everything perfect and amazing and it obviously comes across as fake. I used to like her on the bits of celebrity juice I've seen but not her 'are you ok?' persona.
there was definitely a gradual distancing which started after his coming out, and her leaving YMU

She’s a try hard person which makes her difficult to like. Everything she does is with a squeaky clean imagine in mind which again just doesn’t wash.

I just couldn't warm to her after she had 2 very different personas on This Morning and then on Celeb Juice. Then Phil started going on there om Holly's team and it was just so u professional and seemed like he was trying to be young and cool and the whole thing was just odd. I wasn't a fan of that show tbh but they would be all holier than thou and super professional on TM and on juice just seemed like scraping the barrel.

See I think she happy to go along with him as he was the king of TM and she wanted to be top dog as well.

Looks odd that her legs are really tanned but her arms, neck and face are pale 😳 Definitely the other way round for me, my legs never tan but everywhere else does 😅

I’ve never liked Willoughby. I was in the studio audience for CD:UK in the early 2000s. Off-camera, she came across and very arrogant and you could tell that people working around her were not comfortable…. At this point she was still D List famous.

I am surprised that This Morning returned, this would have been a good opportunity to revamp ITV daytime (and get rid of the Loose Witches too). If this current blind item is true, ITV will find themselves in an awkward situation.

Friend of mine was at a live taping of celebrity juice years and years ago , said exactly the same thing.

Once the camera wasn’t rolling she was a stuck up cow apparently

A lot of people who work in 'da meeja' are stuck-up and entitled. It's bizarre to me because what they actually do is essentially worthless. I don't really have the same problem with, for example, consultants in hospitals who, in my experience, can be quite arrogant ... they save people's lives for crying out loud! Exceptions can me made. Reading an autocue? duck off.

On TikTok I’ve seen a blind item that she’s getting fired from TM because of another sex scandal, praying to the telly gods that it’s true 🙏

Just started watching the new series of The Morning Show and it got me thinking that if Holly channelled her inner Jennifer Aniston she might be in a different situation now. Missed opportunity when now she is the joke

100% agree. She needed to take 6 months off, go with a show completely different to TM. I think that new Davina McCall show wound have suited her. Instead she's left on a sinking ship.
On a seperate note, herself and Craig just don't gel. I'd get Ben shepherd in.

Wonderfully articulated. I agree. She just isn't suited, in my opinion, to a daytime audience. She fails to empathise with people who are at home all day and who might be unemployed or have disabilities or who are old and housebound etc. I think because she was quite mumsy before people thought she'd be a good fit but her and PS held their audience in contempt and very much looked down on them. Case in point - Spin to Win. They were actively nasty to the old dears who couldn't get the words out. The Wyld Moon shite hasn't taken off either because she is unwilling to show any vulnerability. And she's unwilling to show vulnerability because her and her husband live in a house of cards that could come crashing down at any moment
