The 42-year-old presenter simply commented with a broken heart emoji when her elder sister Kelly, 45,- who is the managing director of Holly's Wylde Moon lifestyle brand - revealed on Instagram on Sunday (01.10.23) that their uncle had passed away and that they will "miss him" so much.
Kelly wrote on Instagram: "Sleep deep Uncle Ray. We are heartbroken to say goodbye so soon. Thank you for all the love and the laughs. The kids will forever remember you turning up, taking your hat off and watching with glee as packets of Haribo dropped to the floor. We will miss you so much ."
Holly returned to hosting duties on Monday's (02.10.2023) edition of 'This Morning', fronting the ITV daytime show alongside former 'Big Brother' winner Josie Gibson.
A slew of famlos faces were quick to send their condolences as they commented on Kelly's post.
Pop star and family friend Nicola Appleton said: "So sorry darling sending love xx" whilst Holly's 'This Morning' co-star Clodagh McKenna wrote: "Sending so much love to all your family. May he rest in peace."

She shared a cheerful snap of them raising a glass together and wrote: "Sleep well Sandra… Nonna, Mother, Sister, friend… To know her was to know strength itself… Raising four children after losing her husband, she then lost a son and more recently her sister… Thank you for your guidance, advice and bottomless Prosecco. Thank you for raising the incredible man I’m married to… I see your strength everyday in our children… Be at peace…Love you."
