Holly Willoughby makes rare public appearance with husband of 16 years Dan Baldwin

Holly Willoughby made a rare public appearance with her TV producer husband Dan Baldwin last night.

The Dancing On Ice presenter went to KSI's boxing match on Saturday night at London's Wembley Arena.

KSI, 29, whose real name is Olajide Olayinka Williams, was fighting against Faze Temperrr and among the famous faces in attendance were This Morning star Holly, who cosied up to her husband Dan as they sat ringside.

Holly and Dan met in 2004 on ITV children's show Ministry of Mayhem, where she was a presenter and he was a producer.

They got married in 2007 and have three children together - Harry, 13, Belle, 11, and Chester, eight.

Holly looked chic in a navy blazer and pearl necklace while her husband was dapper in a grey jacket.

The TV star previously said her husband is her "solid ground" and has a "good moral fibre" that she leans on.

"Support is everything in mine and Dan’s relationship," she told Red magazine in 2020.

"He’s very solid ground; he is where I fall. And he knows when something is wrong – it makes me feel emotional even thinking about it. But of course he has weaknesses; we both do. The key is holding up each other’s strengths and not poking at each other’s weaknesses."

Meanwhile, Holly called out one of her best friends, Emma Bunton, during the boxing match last night.

Naturally, social media fans were quite surprised to see the ITV star watching the fight, but they were even more surprised to see her calling out former Spice Girl singer Emma Bunton during a bizarre interview.

Holly used the opportunity to slam Emma for staying at home with her kids and passing up the chance to attend KSI's fight with close pal Holly.

When asked who she would like to 'call out' during the candid interview, Holly responded: "Do you know what? I know one of my very good friends, who is normally on stage in here - Spice Girl Emma Bunton - is watching this at home with her son Beau.

"So I'm calling her out you, Emma Bunton."

After being left in disbelief by Holly's attendance at the boxing match, Twitter users are now calling for a fight between the This Morning star and her close pal, Emma, after they jokingly claimed there's 'beef' between the two stars.

"Never thought I'd see the day where Holly Willoughby would be ringside!!!!! What is going on!! Fight between her and Emma Bunton," one Twitter user joked.

"FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT! Holly and Emma are next," another echoed.

"Ummm I had to switch off the telly and back on again because I thought I was seeing things! Holly Willoughby at a KSI match. Ain't no way hahaha," someone else quipped.

While a fourth tweeted: "Holly W needs to be a ring girl. She's looking fine as hell."

"Ooooooh I bet Emma will be happy with that! Who knew all these women liked boxing so much," shared someone else on Twitter.
