The 41-year-old presenter - who has children Harry, 13, Belle, 11, and seven-year-old Chester with husband Dan Baldwin - took her brood to lay flowers at the former residence of Queen Elizabeth, following her death at the age of 96 last Thursday (08.09.22) and told how they wrote the "most beautiful words" to the late monarch.
Alongside a picture of her children looking at the flowers, Holly wrote on Instagram: "Time to reflect and pay our respects… the children wrote the most beautiful words…[black heart emoji]" (sic)
The 'This Morning' host was inundated with comments from her fellow TV stars on the post on Sunday, with fellow presenter and former 'Big Brother' contestant Alison Hammond posting two heart emojis, while commentator and radio star Vanessa Feltz added that she had also been along to pay her respects.
She wrote: "We’ve just been. So emotional [pink flower emoji]."
'This Morning' was cancelled on the day immediately following the monarch's death but Holly is set to return to screens on Monday (12.09.22) alongside regular co-host Phillip Schofield for a special edition of the programme - which will start at a later time of 11am and run until 1pm - whilst fellow ITV Daytime shows 'Lorraine' and 'Loose Women' will remain off air.
ITV soap opera 'Coronation Street' is also set to be broadcast on Monday for the first time since the Queen's death, while afternoon gameshows 'Tipping Point' and 'The Chase' are also set to air as normal.
In a statement, ITV said: "ITV’s main channel will continue to make changes to its schedule to broadcast the important state events of the coming days culminating in the historic state funeral with extensive and dedicated news coverage from our news teams.
ITV will also be showing a number of documentaries about the Queen and the new King over the coming days. No advertising will run during any of the Royal coverage. "
