Holly Willoughby has dismissed claims that 'This Morning' is toxic.
Holly Willoughby speaks out about This Morning
The 42-year-old star has fronted the ITV1 daytime show since 2009 and since her regular co-host Phillip Schofield quit the series earlier this year after admitting he had an "unwise but not illegal" affair with a younger male colleague, the show has been hit with accusations of being set within a "toxic" environment.
However, Holly has now dismissed the reports and admitted that while she "cannot speak for others", she "does not recognise" such claims when she arrives at work.
She told The Daily Star newspaper: "I know there's been lots of reports and I don't want to speak on behalf of others, but it's a world I honestly don't recognise.
"So for me, I look around - I saw the team all getting ready in make-up everybody's giddy knickers. I just want to come to work and have more of that."
Holly - who now fronts the show alongside a rotation of presenters including Alison Hammond, Josie Gibson, Dermot O'Leary and Craig Doyle - enjoyed a glitzy night at the ceremony on Tuesday (05.09.23) night at London's O2, and while she loved her gown, it wasn't very practical when it came to bathroom breaks during the hours-long event.
Speaking on the ITV show the morning after the NTAs, she said: "So, I loved my dress last night, I love getting dressed up, all glammed and done. The problem with that dress was, it was a bit wiggly, so it was really tight round the old thighs.
"So, I had to go for a pee in the hotel - I'm sharing too much right now, but I'm going to tell you the truth!
"I couldn't pull it up to go for a pee, and I also was so tied in tightly so nothing fell out the top that I also couldn't pull it down. So I had to go in the hotel, and then that was it!
"That was it until I knew I was getting home from the O2 at whatever time!"
