The 37-year-old presenter was given a hilarious send-off from the daytime TV show before she heads to Australia to present 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!' with Declan Donnelly with her co-host Phillip Schofield setting up a scary challenge for her which required Holly to placing her hands in three covered boxes containing mystery creatures.
After handling a remote control toy spider, Holly had to delve in to rub the cute little smooth kittens who were purring in box number two.
Finally, in box number three, she unwittingly got a hold of last year's jungle queen Georgia Toffolo's head which was waiting inside.
Speaking on 'This Morning', Holly placed her hand in the first box and screamed leaving Phil in hysterics, she said: "What is it... what is it! It felt like a badger."
As Holly tentatively reached in to caress the cats, Phil said: "These are live creatures, but be gentle."
Convinced the box contained live rats, the lid was opened to reveal the cuddly creatures, whilst the final box contained Toff's head.
After exposing herself, Toff said: "I was going to bite your finger but I thought better of it!"
Before wrapping up the show, Holly said: "I'm going to miss you all so much."
After her Bushtucker ordeal, the blonde beauty received a goodbye package filled with all her favourite goodies that you can't get in Australia, including Marmite and baked beans.
After coming off air, Holly took to her Instagram account to show her 4.1 million followers the bouquet of flowers she was presented with as a gift which were arranged by the florist who catered for Princess Eugenie's wedding to Jack Brooksbank last week.
She wrote: "Well that's goodbye to @thismorning for a little bit... beautiful flowers fit for a princess from the production team curtesy of Eugene's wedding Florist @rvhfloraldesign Feel super spoilt! ... will miss you all and look after my @schofe whist I'm away... love that silver ... here are a few pictures from the show including my first and LAST bush tucker trial!!!!
