Holly Willoughby SKIPS This Morning after partying at Glastonbury all weekend

Holly Willoughby was missing from Monday's This Morning after a wild weekend of partying at Glastonbury.

Instead, Holly was replaced by Josie Gibson who sat alongside Craig Doyle.

As they reflected on Sir Elton John's farewell performance, Craig addressed Holly's absence, saying: "Now, Holly's off today, she'll be back tomorrow – we'll be here all morning."

Holly flew into Glastonbury on Friday via a helicopter as she appeared to be putting the Phillip Schofield drama behind her.

Fans have since taken to social media to share their confusion after being snapped partying at the legendary festival, with one writing: "Where's Holly? #ThisMorning."

"Where's Holly this morning? #ThisMorning," commented a second.

While a third went on to write: "#ThisMorning oh dear, no Holly!"

"Assuming #Holly is recovering from #Glastonbury," tweeted a fourth.

Holly was snapped kicking back at the festival and was seen queuing for the bar in the swanky VIP area rather than the major queues in the main arena.

Mum-of-three Holly appeared in great spirits as she patiently waited in line to get her hands on a drink, but a source later told the Mirro that she became fed up with the queue.

She left London via a helicopter alongside her husband Dan Baldwin and other members of their party as they prepared to immerse themselves in all things Glasto.

The couple and their friends were certainly in for a treat as they bopped along to the likes of the Arctic Monkeys who headlined the famous Pyramid Stage.

Elsewhere, the Foo Fighters made a surprise appearance following weeks of speculation, while the likes of Fred Again... and WizKid headlined The Other Stage.

It comes after the BBC are reportedly hoping to poach Holly for Strictly Come Dancing following the drama which has surrounded ITV in recent months.

The BBC show is currently hosted by Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman and rakes in millions of viewers each year.

"Holly is the golden goose. BBC bosses want her and they have been plotting for some time to get her for their big shows," an insider claimed to MailOnline.

"They know how popular she is, but it also has to be the right programme. Recently there has been talk around the BBC that Strictly would be a way to lure her over."

The source went on to claim that Holly "wants to stay at Dancing On Ice" and has made that clear to those who are in charge.
