Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby attending the launch of Dancing On Ice 2020
(Picture: PA)Holly Willoughby has to skip Dancing on Ice on Sunday after she tested positive for Covid.
She had to take a step back from her hosting duties this weekend as she self-isolates at home.
It seems Phillip Schofield will present the show by himself as Willoughby tested positive just hours before the semi final begins.
Unfortunately, Holly Willoughby is unable to host tonight's show after testing positive for Covid-19. Tonight's #DancingOnIce Semi-Final will be hosted by Phillip Schofield and we look forward to Holly returning for our Live Final ❤️ @hollywills @Schofe pic.twitter.com/8a9HPPJtbv

However, the This Morning star will return to the ice rink for her hosting duties for the Dancing on Ice Live Final.
A Dancing On Ice spokesperson said in a statement: “Unfortunately, Holly Willoughby is unable to host Sunday’s show after testing positive for Covid-19. We look forward to Holly returning for the Dancing on Ice Live Final.”
Schofield was forced to miss an earlier episode of Dancing on Ice when he was struck down with Covid.
At the time, Stephen Mulhern stepped up as a replacement.
Willoughby will miss this week’s This Morning and a rotation of celebs are expected to fill in for her while she is off.
It comes after Willoughby revealed her dog had eaten her hoover.
She wrote on Instagram, “Dyson update… my dog ate my hoover…”
She has yet to break her silence on testing positive for Covid.
