Holly Willoughby has been snapped sipping wine and enjoying a night out with fellow celebrities in a rare public outing from the presenter since leaving ITV

Holly Willoughby quit hosting This Morning in 2023, and since then has made rare appearances at public events. However, last night the 45 year old television presenter dressed to impress at a star-studded event in London.

The star joined other famous faces at the launch of ‘Krude’ olive oil, an event hosted by the oil owners, Gordon Ramsay, Ben Caring and Elle Caring.

The event took place at the Soho Mews House in London on Thursday evening, and for the event, Holly wore a sky blue pant suit, complete with a double breasted jacked, open-toed heels and a simple make up and hair style.

Also in attendance at the event was Christine Lampard, Heidi Range, Tamzin Outhwaite, Nicole Appleton and Emma Bunton, who Holly posed with with a glass of champagne and a glass of white wine at a different point of the night.

After stepping down from This Morning in 2023, the star continued to host ITV’s Dancing On Ice until 2025, but has taken time out for the past year ever since the short-lived Netflix series, Celebrity Bear Hunt, she fronted with Bear Grylls.

Now though, Holly has given fans fresh hope that she could be back sometime soon. Earlier this month, Holly wrote on Instagram : “Found a patch of sun in between the rain… good old London weather! Just had a brilliant meeting about a project I’m really excited about… things are happening at quite the pace! Can’t wait to bring it to life and share it with you.”

It all comes just months after it was reported that that the former model, could be turning to YouTube for her TV comeback as she shuns traditional broadcasting. A source told The Sun : “This is a massive game-changer for Holly and the wider industry because this show and her channel will be a threat to the main broadcasters, particularly This Morning and ITV.

“Advertisers are increasingly turning away from traditional terrestrial telly and looking for new opportunities and new ways to promote themselves online — and with a magazine show like this it’s the perfect vehicle.”

This month, her former This Morning co-host, Phillip Schofield, 64, said he was ‘content’ after leaving This Morning and ending his decades long friendship with Holly.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, he said that he is “content and happy” with life away from telly screens. He said: “Life is really calm and drama-free now. I decided a while ago that I just wanted a quiet life with family, friends I can trust and my dog.

“Therefore, I keep my head down as much as possible. The past few years were, as you know, utterly brutal on so many levels, and I came to terms with the fact that there was no way back. I’ve got used to my new life, and I’m content with that and happy.”
