Holly Willoughby shared a sweet photo with Clodagh McKenna on her former This Morning coworker on Instagram, saying she had a “full heart” two years after leaving.
Holly Willoughby reunited with former This Morning colleague Clodagh McKenna, two years after she left her presenting duties on the ITV show following a terrifying kidnap and murder plot.
Holly, 44, spent the day with her older sister Kelly, 47, and Clodagh, 50, in a stylish country kitchen as Holly shared they had ‘full tummy’s and full hearts’ on her Instagram. Holly was snapped grinning from ear to ear as she posed in the middle of the women as they all held hands.
Holly had her glossy blonde hair in loose waves and looked stylish in a tweed coat. Kelly also matched the country-style backdrop in a khaki farmer jacket, while former This Morning culinary expert Clodagh looked cosy in a cream cable knit sweater.

Holly mentioned Clodagh’s own business Honey by Clodagh in the caption of her book Wylde Moon, which Holly also promoted. She wrote, “Full tummy’s and full hearts, lovely day with @ladywilloughby and @clodagh_mckenna… Finally introduced @wyldemoon to @honeybyclodagh… they love each other.”
The post from Holly comes two years after her departure from This Morning. She had worked as a co-presenter for 14 years alongside Phillip Schofield before she confirmed that she ‘will not be returning’.
Holly and Phillip were accused of queue jumping at the Lying-in-State of Queen Elizabeth II, and they both faced a number of blows in the months leading up to her departure.
In the months that followed, Holly reportedly learned that Phillip had been having an “unwise but not illegal” affair with a younger male coworker, something she reportedly didn’t know about.
Following a trial at Chelmsford Crown Court, a security guard was then sentenced to a year in jail for a plot to kidnap, rape, and murder Holly. With a minimum term of 16 years, Gavin Plumb was found guilty and given a life sentence.
Holly announced that she would leave the ITV daytime program in October 2023 after the events, saying it would be a “difficult goodbye.” Holly stated in a statement posted on Instagram that she had informed ITV that she would no longer be working on This Morning after 14 years. Thank you so much to everyone who has participated in the show over the years. You’re incredible, and I’m forever proud of what we’ve accomplished together, so why say goodbye?
“Thank you to ITV’s entire staff for their support. Thank you to each and every visitor to our sofa. Most of all, we want to thank the wonderful viewers. You have always been the best, most trustworthy, and most trustworthy people.
The viewers will always have ownership of this show, Richard and Judy said. I’ve had the privilege of being a part of its story, and I’m aware that there are still many chapters to go in it. Unfortunately, I now feel like I must choose between myself and my family. I’m so sorry for you all. Holly”.
