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.
