Holly Willoughby is set to make a return to the spotlight after unveiling the logo for her new YouTube channel – nearly three years after her exit from This Morning.
The 45-year-old was previously a staple of the small screen, hosting the ITV show for over a decade alongside Phillip Schofield, as well as Dancing On Ice. She even stepped in for Ant McPartlin on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here in 2018.
However, she has kept a low profile since announcing her departure in 2023, but is eyeing up a huge comeback.
While details are thin on the ground, she has revealed the title and logo on Instagram, with “Holly Willoughby Together” written in deep pink, against a lighter background.
Alongside the upload, she simply wrote: “Coming soon… @hollywilloughbytogether.” Holly also linked to a YouTube page, with a message encouraging viewers to subscribe, adding: “Hey! Welcome to Holly Willoughby Together. We’re almost ready to get together…”
It is not clear when Together will launch but delighted fans have voiced their excitement in the comments below.
“About time @hollywilloughby whatever it is you will be successful,” a follower commented, while one wrote: “Exciting times!! Looking forward to whatever this is.”
“We’ve missed you so much Holly,” an Instagram user said, as one replied: “Oh wow its happening cant wait, fantastic @hollywilloughby.”
A commenter added: “I have no idea what you’re cooking up @hollywilloughby, but I look forward to finding out.”

Holly took a break from the limelight following her bombshell exit from This Morning – she starred on the ITV series for around 14 years before announcing her exit.
“I have let ITV know today that after 14 years, I will not be returning to This Morning,” she said in an Instagram statement at the time. “To everyone who has ever worked on the show over the years, thank you so so much. This is such a difficult goodbye, you are incredible and I forever will be proud of what we’ve done together.
“Thank you to everyone at ITV for being supportive. To every guest who has sat on our sofa, thank you. Most of all, thank you to the wonderful viewers. You’ve been loyal, so supportive and the very best company every day.
“Richard and Judy said, ‘We only look after this show, it will always belong to the viewers.’ It’s been an honour to just be part of it’s story and I know this story has many chapters left to go. Sadly, however, I now feel I have to make this decision for me and my family. I will miss you all so much. Holly.”
Although she went on to appear on Celebrity Bear Hunt on Netflix, the show was axed after just one year. Together marks her official comeback, and will reportedly see her return to screens four times a week.

“Holly can’t wait to get back into the spotlight and thinks this YouTube show is a pathway to getting back on actual TV,” an insider claimed.
“This is her way of reminding the top TV executives how good she is, how well-connected she is, how great she is as a presenter and why ITV bosses should look at her.
“Now all three of her shows have been dropped, this is Holly’s only option and she’s got to make it work.”
However, although she has been in the industry for decades – and has presented Celebrity Juice, the Xtra Factor, The Games and many more in that time, Holly is said to be nervous about her new venture.
“She’s got fears about returning to the spotlight,” the source added. “She feels she’s had a tough time and she knows there will be criticism, but this is a showcase for the world to see that Holly’s back – she’s back on our screens as our golden girl. So yes, she feels pressure, but she’s got nothing to lose.”
