Holly Willoughby finally addresses future amid ongoing 'feud' with Phillip Schofield

Holly Willoughby has opened up about her future as she shared some words of advice with her Wylde Moon subscribers.

The This Morning host has recently hit headlines as her relationship with pal and co-host Phillip Schofield has reportedly 'cooled off'.

The TV duo - who have worked together on the show for 14 years - are reportedly 'barely speaking' when cameras aren't rolling, reports Manchester Evening News.

On Monday, May 15 Holly and Phil were business as usual as they put on a united front to host the ITV daytime show, for the first time since Phil issued a statement on their friendship.

Phillip told The Sun: "As I have said before, Holly is my rock. We’re the best of friends – as always, she is an incredible support on screen, behind the scenes and on the phone. Holly has always been there for me, through thick and thin. And I’ve been there for her." Phillip added: "The last few weeks haven’t been easy for either of us."

However, for the first time since the drama unfolded, Holly has broke her silence, putting pen to paper to share her latest newsletter with subscribers of Wylde Moon.

The mum-of-three launched the lifestyle brand, which explores topics from "beauty and fashion to energy and healing" but also features its own boutique, back in 2021.

As part of her brand, the 42-year-old writes an online journal and sends weekly newsletters where she pens a message to subscribers.

In Monday's email, the star shared her thoughts on the passage of time as she struggled to believe we were already mid-way through May.

"The older I get, the more I appreciate how daunting the concept of time passing can be," she typed in her newsletter. "I can always remember my nan saying things like ‘wait ‘til you get to my age…then it really starts flying by’– and I now I really get it. If this resonates with you, I wanted to share some advice one of my friends gave me when we were talking about this exact thing.

"She told me that instead of worrying how quickly it’s going, we should look at things differently and appreciate that with every moment (big or small) that passes, we're creating a future filled with joy, love, and endless possibility. If we can remember to reflect on just how lucky we are to be making all these memories, the passage of time can feel really positive. It’s a bit like that old saying, 'Time is a luxury that the wise appreciate'."

Addressing her new regime, which she teased fans with last week on Instagram, Holly added: "In honour of cherishing the smaller moments, I wanted to thank everyone who’s contacted me about my ‘proper' trial of cold water exposure from last week’s newsletter. It certainly is a step up from my 30 second cold showers but with your encouragement, I’ve been in again this week…so thank you for that!"

In a video shared on her Instagram, Holly was videoed in the backyard of her London home - which she shares with her husband Dan Baldwin and their three children - and was seen stepping into a freezing ice bath.

She appeared in a floral swimsuit and bobble hat to keep herself warm, as she lifted the lid on the ice bath before stepping in.

After submerging her body in the spine-tingling water, her kids popped their hands in the water to test the temperature of the bath.

Holly breathed and grinned her way through her brief time in the ice bath before jumping back out.

Writing to her millions of followers, Holly captioned the video: "Right let’s begin this icy journey!" She then explained: "After working with Wim Hof and the whole Freeze the Fear team, it’s taken a year, but I’m finally doing it for you…"

She was referring to the fact that last year she teamed up with the Dutch motivational speaker and extreme athlete, known as The Iceman, for the BBC One show alongside co-host Lee Mack to test a group of celebrities as they undertook icy challenges with the support of Wim.
