Sorry behind catwalk but has anyone seen Molly's new show on you tibe?.It really is quite sure and has all the makings of a career in freefall (she even had to get her husband to produce it). Was it always going to be this way after the Schofiled scandal or is she like Tess Daly simply not to enter enough to make a career on her own?

JAN MOIR: Holly's new show is so banal it makes Meghan's look good

Caring, sharing Holly Willoughby blessed us with a return to the broadcast world this week, floating back down the airwaves like a blonde cherub on a candy-floss cloud of crud.

I am not blaming her for anything Phillip Schofield did.

To me, she just isn’t good at her job. She isn’t natural or genuine when she talks to people and she doesn’t make people feel at ease.
That ‘are you OK statement that she made after Schofield was an encapsulation of that. She didn’t know how to behave.

this really.

holly does not possess much talent and there are thousands of blond good looking women that could fill her shoes of that is what the public wants. I don't think it what the public wanr.....they don't want fatalities shoved down their throat by an obviously privileged woman. People don't mind talented people getting fams.....it's the lack of talent that is part of the problem.

I don't know if her famous friends dropped her or not they just seemed to publicly dissapear. Which i thought was strange,

That's showbiz!

I think it's interesting that she doesn't seem to have a girl gang around her anymore especially after the ordeal she went through in the courts. I can't think of anyone else in that situation as modt female celebs are very much into women supporting women

She does though, her Instagram is still showing recent pics of her and Appleton, Emma bunton, Christine lampard and the gang

Have you met her?

No but I have a friend whose niece is a TV producer

And…..

Pjsaremyfaveoutfit · 30/07/2026 08:58

....and, yeah, she's mean and ignores those who she deems are beneath her. She's far from the lovely, fluffy personality that she portrays on screen.

ProfessorofDarkArts · 30/07/2026 09:22

If lack of talent was the only issue half the presenters on TV, radio DJs etc would be going the same way. To me she comes across as really unlikeable and smug and there are enough rumours about her 'mean girl' behaviour for me to think they must have some basis.

Her unlikability is part of her lack of talent. You can't interview people when you are not likeable and insincere. She seems patronising.

Denim4ever · 30/07/2026 22:29

I can't say I rate Holly, but Jan Moir is nasty and this is a hatchet job of a piece.

The Together chat segment will be co hosted by Sara Cox. Also a bit of a marmite presenter. Nevertheless, Cox is not a C list figure.

Being on YouTube but not anywhere else for a while is likely to be an indicator of failure/career stall fir Holly.

‘Mean girl’ is misogynistic. Just describe what you mean, don’t use a playground
label.

Zero skills and talent? You’ve got to have something to pull off fronting live television every day.

How is it misogynistic? Genuine question, I’d like to know if I’m missing something.

I’m not one of the PP who used the phrase “mean girls” but isn’t the point of it that it IS playground language because the behaviour is juvenile ie/spiteful and bullying?
