Holly Willoughby responds to This Morning co-star Phillip Schofield’s family holiday pics

This Morning host Holly Willoughby, 39, has been a great source of support to her co-star Phillip Schofield since he came out as gay.

The pair have a great relationship on and off the camera and over the years their families have grown close.

Yesterday, Holly gushed over Phillip’s holiday photos, which were posted online by his daughter Ruby, after he whisked his family to Paris for a half term break.

Phillip, 57, took his wife Stephanie Lowe and daughters Molly, 27, and Ruby, 24, to the capital of France for a short holiday this week.

Ruby took to Instagram to share some pictures from the break with her 95,300 followers.

She posted a picture of herself with her mum, dad and sister in front of a giant red heart and lots of twinkly lights.

She captioned the post with a simple heart emoji.

Mum-of-three Holly headed straight to the comments section to share her thoughts on the social media snap.

She wrote: “Gorgeous” alongside the picture followed by four red hearts.

Ruby replied with a smiling face with hearts emoji.

At the start of the month, Phillip spoke about his sexuality in a lengthy statement published on Instagram ahead of an appearance on This Morning.

He told his 3.1 million followers: “With the strength and support of my wife and my daughters, I have been coming to terms with the fact that I am gay.”
