Holly Willoughby shares rare snap of daughter Belle as they prepare for her 9th birthday in lockdown

Holly Willoughby has been whipping up a storm in the kitchen with her daughter Belle and captured the adorable moment.

The mother and daughter duo were busy making an ice cream cake for Belle's upcoming 9th birthday, which Holly shared with a rare glimpse of her fair-haired daughter.

Looking every inch the stylish TV presenter in a summery pink floral dress by brand Pink Flamingo, Holly smiled as she gazed up at the camera which showed her middle child prepping the ice cream in the tin.

Holly, 39, shared the picture from her kitchen which showed Belle was standing on a step ladder to reach their counter top.

"Today’s project… making an ice cream cake for Belle’s birthday on Tuesday… Never done it before, will report back once we reveal it!" the This Morning star wrote.

The duo were both in pink for the baking session, with a headband wearing Belle sporting a pink checked top and denim shorts.

Holly, who often gets to dine out on plenty of celebrity chef's food during filming for This Morning, turned her hand at the cake-making for her daughter's special day which falls on Tuesday 14 April.

The TV presenter has been filming in the ITV studios with a reduced crew due to the coronavirus outbreak, but it appears she is still having her Easter break as Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford step in for the holidays.

Holly would usually take the Easter break as an opportunity to jet off on a sunshine break, along with her three children Harry, nine, Belle and Chester, four and husband Dan Baldwin.

Last year the family spent two weeks in the Maldives, with Holly documenting the luxury vacation in a series of snaps with her family.

But this year things will be different as she will be practising social distancing and staying at their stunning London home.

Holly recently admitted that she "hasn't stopped drinking" during lockdown as she chatted with her Celebrity Juice friend Keith, 46, in a video call which he filmed and posted to his YouTube channel.

During the chat Keith asks: “Have you been drinking of an evening?”

To which Holly, who is dressed in a grey sports vest top, admits: “I haven’t stopped. Like I literally clock watch and go: ‘Is it time to have an Aperol Spritz yet?’”


Holly also explained during a This Morning viewer phone-in how she and husband Dan haven't argued since going into quarantine because when they spend time apart in the house, Dan surprises her by doing little things that brightens her day.

Holly, who married her TV producer husband back in 2007, said: "I also think that doing little nice things gives you a bit of leeway in other areas as well.

"Like if I'm sort of doing something and Dan will come and make me a cup of tea or I'll come back and he would've put the washing away – and I haven't asked him. Then I sort of turn a blind eye to all these other things, so I think doing little things to help makes a big difference."
