Holly Willoughby, 45, has made a startling confession during the premiere of her new YouTube channel, Holly Willoughby Together, by stating she would 's**g' comedian Romesh Ranganathan. The former This Morning presenter made the comment while playing a game of 'S**g, Marry, Avoid' with Canadian comic Katherine Ryan, according to the Daily Mail.
Holly's Risqué Game on New Show
In the July 28 premiere, Katherine Ryan encouraged Holly to choose between comedians Rob Beckett, Josh Widdicombe, and Romesh Ranganathan. After making her selection, Katherine teased, 'I'm just sending Romesh the video of you saying you want to s**g him!' The comment comes as a surprise given the wholesome, lifestyle-focused branding of Holly's new web series, which covers health, beauty, fashion, and wellness.
A New Era for Holly Willoughby
Holly's YouTube channel marks her first major project since leaving This Morning in 2023 after 14 years. Speaking to the Press Association, she said, 'It's just a shift. It's been 14 years – you get so used to how things work.' She added that TV and YouTube are not too different, though she noted the digital team's focus on thumbnails as a new experience. 'It felt like a load of us were kind of learning the same thing,' she said. Holly also revealed that her three children inspired her to make the jump to YouTube, but she hasn't ruled out a return to television, stating, 'I love telly. Telly is in my blood.'
Background and Future Plans
Holly's career has seen significant changes, including the axing of Dancing On Ice, which she co-hosted, and the departure of her former co-star Phillip Schofield after he admitted to an affair. She also faced a terrifying kidnap plot by former security guard Gavin Plumb, who was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 16 years. Now flying solo, Holly is focusing on her company Wylde Moon and her new YouTube show, which will release two episodes per week featuring inspiring guests, including a grieving mother, a tech safety campaigner, chefs, a florist, and a makeup artist. 'I'm really looking forward to hearing the feedback because that's the good thing about YouTube,' she said. 'If people don't like anything, we can change it.' Reps for Romesh Ranganathan have been contacted for comment.
