Dancing On Ice 'hired stand in' for Holly Willoughby as she prepares to make TV comeback after leaving This Morning
The presenter, 42, will make her on-screen return after a two-month hiatus on Sunday for the ITV skating competition's launch show alongside her new co-host Stephen Mulhern.
A source told The Sun: 'Bosses don’t want to have on-screen talent waiting around in the cold any longer than strictly necessary so they have used a body double for Holly for production run-throughs and to assist with camera angles.' The Mail on Sunday revealed that she met Stephen, 46, two weeks earlier for the pictures to be taken – just days after she made her first public outing since early October, when a former Essex security guard was charged with contacting a hitman in the US to kidnap and murder her. On Sunday at 6.30pm, Holly will co-host the programme - whose stars include Love Island's Amber Davies, Eddie 'the Eagle' Edwards and former Brookside actress Claire Sweeney, from ITV's studio at the old RAF base in Bovingdon, Hertfordshire.
