Holly Willoughby breaks silence on social media after Phillip's exit to send subtle message

Holly Willoughby has broken her silence on social media after speculation of a ‘rift’ between her and her former ITV co-star, Phillip Scofield.

The This Morning Host is taking a break from the show after Phillip took a step down from the show after 20 years. Phillip, 61, made a statement on May 20 confirming that he had left the daytime programme.

As reported in the Liverpool Echo, in his statement he said he had presented his final show on May 18, and since then Holly has also been missing from the show.

The mum-of-three, who is usually active on social media, seems to have also taken a break from Instagram. But, she made a return to the social media site on Wednesday (May 24) to send a subtle message to her co-star.

A post from This Morning's official account featured a number of photos of Dermot O'Leary on the show. The ITV bosses wished Dermot a happy birthday as he turned 50 on Wednesday, May 24.

Co-star Alison Hammond also wished Dermot a happy birthday with a post on her page. Holly has "liked" both posts, clearly showing her appreciation for Dermot.

Holly last updated her own social media pages on Friday, May 18, when she shared a snap of herself modelling a Marks and Spencer dress.
