Holly Willoughby posts rare snap of children exploring New York as she panics fans with US trip

Holly Willoughby shared a rare snap of her three children as they went sight-seeing on a short trip to New York.

The This Morning presenter jetted off to the Big Apple for a long weekend break, making sure to introduce Harry, nine, Belle, seven and Chester, four to Times Square.

But fans were immediately concerned that the snaps meant Willoughby could be planning a move across the pond.

One commented: “What presenting job you been for?”

Another wrote: “Being poached for prime time US TV?”

“How long are you there for?” asked other panicked fans who worried about losing the Dancing on Ice queen to the other side of the Atlantic.

Willoughby quickly reassured fans as she revealed the real reason for their quick trip was a family outing to see Frozen on Broadway.

Standing alongside Anna and Elsa from the musical cast, Willoughby wrote: “The kids first Broadway experience and we all just LOVED it.

“As a huge fan it exceeded all expectations and that is saying something! Thank you @disney for the tickets... you made our weekend! #letitgo #gifted.”

The trip comes after Willoughby missed This Morning last Tuesday to say goodbye to her late nana, who died aged 90.

“Today we say goodbye for a little while to my beautiful Nan. Go and be with Grandad... he’s been waiting for you... love you... miss you...,” she wrote alongside a picture of the pair.

But some cruel trolls hit out at Willoughby for taking a trip abroad so soon after her loss. But the majority of her fans jumped to her defence as they claimed there isn't a “right away to grieve”.
