Holly Willoughby has signalled she is “finally back to herself” after ex-colleague Phillip Schofield embroiled This Morning in a scandal.
Willoughby seems to have changed her attitude just weeks after Schofield quit ITV.
The 42-year-old was back on This Morning earlier today with Dermot O’Leary.
Willoughby appeared in high spirits and showed more energy than in previous weeks.

Schofield, 61, stepped down from ITV and would later confirm Willoughby ignored his apology text.

A number of viewers have taken to social media to comment on her spirits.
