That's it's great to see a curvy women in a top tv job

It's so refreshing to see Holly Willoby on tv with all her curves. I know she is expecting right now but it's so nice to see a real women for a change. Long may it continue!!

ok i havent read her hospital medical records so i cannot conclusively say that she definitely did have such a procedure.

i just read it in the glossies 'innit?' so i am inclined to believe it!

Lequeen but I do look through the superficial fluff, if the person is presenting something interesting

I didn't even know who this young lady was until now but having looked up on the internet it seems she is another woman who has helped her career by doing bikini shots etc

I am not saying she isn't intelligent or interesting and a very nice person and all that, but lets not pretend this isn't another case of misogynist crap where a woman is valued according to her sexual attractiveness

I went off 'this morning' when I happened to notice Ruth (eamon holmes wife) wearing some lovely patent shoes that I thought would look nice with my new 'new look' jeans on checking it out on her page ......they were prada!!!!!

Isn't she pregnant?

[ChickensAreFlyingUnderTheRadar]

I like Willoughby. She's inoffensive and comes across as pleasant. Her job is daytime TV, so I don't think she has to be Paxman. She is pregnant, but has always been curvy

Wow. Returned to this post after a while away. Apologise to any natural size 6-8 ladies. My own dd isvery tall and slim. Takes after her dad not me!!! I was refering to the fact Holly is her natural size be it slim curvy or pregnant. Rather than the awful girls that eat nothing but dust to maintain an unnatural size 0

I'm also in admiration of Zoe ball Jodie Kidd etc. Tall and slim but that's the wAy god made them.

Speaking as a chap, we tend to use the term, "real woman" to the curvier body-type so as to make her feel better about herself.

Just saying.

A size 12 isn't large by anyone's standards - isn't the average size in the UK a 16? I can only think of Miranda Hart who's that size or bigger on t'telly...just shows how much TV prefers a particular shape for women.

Skinny women are still real, though. I work with some of them and I#m pretty sure I can't pass my hand through them like ghosts.

[mippy]

Oh, I'm overweight and I'm very definitely curvy. Basically, scale up your average 'curvy' wee girl until she's tall, buxom and big footed and that's me.

[GeekCool]

hasn't read all the thread and is fairly new here!

Whilst yes, it's good that there are curvier women on TV, until women become the anchors for tv entertainment programmes and not the 'reporter at trackside' type, I wouldn't applaud too much.

Also, whilst I'm on it, that show 'Take Me Out' is awful. 40 women on it all vying for the attention of one bloke.
Lovely.

It suits her frame

I am sure that's not what op was saying - slender frames such as yours are just as fab as a size 12! If women are in proportion that is great but far too many women on tv nowadays look like emaciated little boys and that is horrible !

I just dont get the fuss , she just another pretty blonde thats on tv.

ok , mabey she does actually eat food , but is it really worth a whole thread about ?
