This Morning’s Holly Willoughby has broken her silence on being compared to actress and lifestyle guru, Gwyneth Paltrow. Speaking at the launch of her lifestyle brand Wylde Moon’s new perfume, earlier in the week, the mother-of-three, 41, revealed how it felt to be compared to the Hollywood A-lister and businesswoman who launched hugely successful lifestyle brand Goop, 14 years ago.
The ITV presenter gushed over the ex-wife of Coldplay star Chris Martin, after hearing that she had been compared to the star.
Holly told The Sun: “It feels pretty amazing.
“She has been hugely successful and, in a way, she did exactly what I was talking about tonight.
“Even though she was hugely successful in one area of her life, she had other dreams and she wanted to follow them,” she added.

Their appearance comes as it’s reported that Holly has been “supporting Phillip” after he was slammed by Eamonn Holmes for “snubbing” his wife, Ruth Langsford.
In a recent interview, Eamonn hit out at the Oldham-born star for “snubbing” his wife, Loose Women host Ruth on ITV in 2019.
A source claimed: “Phil’s This Morning family are rallying around him after the comments, none more so than Holly.
“It’s no secret there is no love lost between Phil and Eamonn but Holly felt she had to defend her ‘work husband’ after all the support he’s shown her over the years, particularly on the week he celebrated 40 years in showbiz,” they added to OK! Magazine.
