Holly Willoughby has broken her social media hiatus after days of staying off platforms amid the Phillip Schofield scandal.
The TV presenter made a return to Instagram just moments before Schofield admitted to having an affair with a younger colleague at ITV and was dropped by his agent.
But Holly, 42, failed to acknowledge the continuing drama, reports the Mirror.
Holly posted a photo to her Wylde Moon Instagram account, which showed her holding a plate to show off the kedgeree she had made.
The caption read: "Fancy joining Holly and trying @Clodagh_McKenna's Kedegree?
"Holly says 'It's simple to make and a complete crowd pleaser whether you're having it for brunch, lunch or dinner! It may have been the first time I've made a Kedgeree but it definitely won't be the last!' Tap the link in our bio for the full recipe."
Schofield quit This Morning last week after 21 years following rumours of a feud between himself and Holly. But on Friday evening he sensationally quit ITV - meaning he will no longer host the British Soap Awards or Dancing on Ice after he admitted to an affair with a younger male ITV colleague.
In a bombshell statement, Phillip admitted the affair but refused to name his former colleague, with whom he had a relationship.
He said: "I did have a consensual on-off relationship with a younger male colleague at This Morning. Contrary to speculation, whilst I met the man when he was a teenager and was asked to help him to get into television, it was only after he started to work on the show that it became more than just a friendship. That relationship was unwise, but not illegal. It is now over."
After admitting to lying about the affair, Phillip has quit ITV with immediate affect and been dropped by his talent agent YMU.
"Honesty and integrity are core values for YMU's whole business, defining everything we do. Talent management is a relationship based entirely on trust," YMU stated.
"This week, we have learned important new information about our client Phillip Schofield. These facts contradicted what Phillip had previously told YMU, as well as the external advisors we had brought in to support him.

"As a result, on Thursday we agreed to part company with Phillip, with immediate effect."
When Schofield left This Morning last week, in a statement he said: "I have always been proud to cover fascinating stories on This Morning. But recently, This Morning itself has become the story.
"Throughout my career in TV - including the very difficult last few days - I have always done my best to be honourable and kind. I understand that ITV has decided the current situation can't go on, and I want to do what I can to protect the show that I love.
"So I have agreed to step down from This Morning with immediate effect, in the hope that the show can move forward to a bright future. I'd like to thank everyone who has supported me - especially This Morning's amazing viewers - and I'll see you all for the Soap Awards next month."
