Holly Willoughby has shown off an edgy new look and her fans can’t get enough of it. The former This Morning star, 44, took to Instagram on Thursday to unveil her subtle transformation as she rocked a wavy hairstyle and a pair of very out-there glasses.

The mum-of-three snapped a selfie while sitting in the car as she joked about being her children’s ‘personal party driver’. Holly captioned the snap: “Any other mums/dads of 16 year old, post GCSE children suddenly find themselves with a new role of personal party driver? Mums ‘Mini’ Cabs … and yes… I’m now a Glasses wearer… game changer.”

Holly and her husband Dan Baldwin are proud parents to son Harry, 16, daughter Belle, 12, and nine-year-old son Chester. Their eldest son Harry has just completed his GCSE’s and it seems like Holly has been roped in as his personal chauffeur after completing his exams.

After unveiling her new look, fans of Holly’s flocked to the comment section to gush over her naturally wavy hair as one commented: “Gorgeous. You look so pretty and the glasses really suit you.” Another echoed: “Wow!!! Holly you have never looked better.”

It comes after Holly’s career plans for the future have reportedly been unveiled as she’s been left without an upcoming TV show. The star has been a staple on our screens for years but it seems that she hasn’t got any upcoming projects for us to look forward to.

The TV star is now at a point in her career where she hasn’t got a programme lined-up for the first time in 21 years. This comes as her usual presenting gig on Dancing On Ice has come to an end as the show has been axed.

Holly’s other job hosting Bear Hunt with Bear Grylls also won’t be happening again as that’s been axed as well. She has also chosen to leave You Bet! which means Stephen Mulhern will be hosting the show alone.

It has been reported that Holly’s husband Dan Baldwin is working on a reboot of Record Breakers which means Holly could be in with a chance of a presenting job. The Sun reported that a source said it would make “perfect sense” for Holly to be up for the role.

They said: “Record Breakers is likely to be a prime time hit and it would make perfect sense for Holly to take the reins. She has worked alongside Dan before and the pair know what it takes to make great telly.”

Holly has also been in amongst a few names that could be hosting the reboot of Cilla Black’s Blind Date. Other celebs that could be up include Claudia Winkleman and Davina McCall. Another show Holly is being looked at for is a new Channel 4 programme where new undiscovered singers are found. Holly first returned back to TV last year after taking an 18 month break.

It has also been reported that ITV are keen to keep Holly as she recently met with Katie Rawcliffe, director of entertainment and daytime about future opportunities.

An insider revealed: “Holly always intended to lock in new presenting roles for ITV, which has been her home for so long. She didn’t have anything confirmed earlier this year just due to the way the cards had fallen, but there are a string of exciting projects on the table and 2025 is looking good for Holly.

“Holly is looking to the future and this week’s meeting was a big part of that. It won’t be a return to daytime programming but new entertainment formats.” The meeting coincided with a documentary about Holly’s kidnapping airing.

Holly declined to participate in Channel 5’s documentary, The Plot To Kill Holly Willoughby, which told the story of the plot by obsessed security guard Gavin Plumb to kidnap, rape and murder her.

The traumatic experience is what led her to step down from her role on ITV1’s This Morning and take a break from television altogether.

The news comes after some viewers took issue with his quick departure from the show, writing ‘Perhaps he can only manage 30 minutes of acting per programme. One of the biggest disappointments ever was him being written out of Game of Thrones so early.’ Speculation is already swirling that the new season will feature a flashback episode delving deeper into Ronnie’s past. We have all been blown away by the incredibly positive response to This City is Ours,’ said show creator Stephen Butchard. ‘I can’t thank the audience enough for their time and emotional investment.’ Beginning to contemplate the possibility of a future and a new family with his girlfriend, Diana, (Hannah Onslow, left), Michael reevaluates his life choices Beginning to contemplate the possibility of a future and a new family with his girlfriend, Diana, (Hannah Onslow, left), Michael reevaluates his life choices Featuring scenes such as the Catholic ‘wigwam’ cathedral, where a gangster prays for guidance before betraying his fellow crooks, to the ships on the Mersey, the series is set and shot in Liverpool, with an unwavering affection for the city Featuring scenes such as the Catholic ‘wigwam’ cathedral, where a gangster prays for guidance before betraying his fellow crooks, to the ships on the Mersey, the series is set and shot in Liverpool, with an unwavering affection for the city ‘This City is Ours was one of our team’s first commissions when I joined the BBC,’ added Lindsay Salt, director of BBC Drama. ‘I could not be happier with how Stephen, Saul and the Left Bank team have brought it to the screen so classily.’ The show has garnered a whopping 92% rating from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes, with one fan on X calling last night’s finale ‘Shakespearean level drama’. But Salt suggests that the drama is only just beginning: ‘I’m delightedthat we now get to build on this fantastic first run and show that things are only just getting started for this very special series’.
