Holly Willoughby’s media company is facing a fresh court battle over an outstanding tax bill.
Roxy Media, the media production and management firm once run by the TV presenter and husband Dan Baldwin, was hit with a winding up order earlier this month, according to fresh filings.
The order means that Her Majesty’s Revenue and Custom (HMRC) could seek to shut down the business over unpaid taxes.
A hearing related to the issue was due to take place in London on Wednesday, but was adjourned.
It is understood that a new hearing is scheduled to take place on April 16.
An HMRC spokeswoman said: “We take a supportive approach to dealing with customers who have tax debts and only file winding-up petitions once we’ve exhausted all other options, in order to protect taxpayers’ money.”
The size of the tax issue is not known. However, Roxy Media’s most recent set of accounts showed that it owed £329,715 in corporation tax for the year to August 2023.
Ms Willougby and Mr Baldwin set up the company, which specialises in managing media clients, in 2020.
The Dancing On Ice presenter is represented by the firm after stepping aside from agency YMU.
A spokesperson for Holly Willoughby declined to comment.
