After a year away from This Morning, Holly Willoughby is ready to make her return. The 34-year-old TV presenter took to Twitter on Monday to share her excitement ahead of her big comeback in September. "I am soooooo unbelievably excited to be coming home!!!!" she wrote. "@Schofe I hope you've kept the place neat and tidy! X."Alongside the post, she shared a new promo video, giving viewers a quick glimpse at her long-awaited reunion with co-host Phillip Schofield. The clip shows Phillip heading alone into a coffee shop, where he sees images of famous presenting duos – including Morecombe and Wise, Ant and Dec and Richard and Judy. He's then happily reunited with his much-missed co-host, who cheekily puts some coffee froth on his nose.

"It's lovely working with Holly because our humour works at the same speed, and it's always nice to work with a mate," Phillip said of his co-host. "It's an all-new look, Holly's back, and we've got some brilliant ideas – things that we've not done before – and that's quite hard to do for a show that's been running for such a long time… We are really looking forward to September. "Holly, who is returning from maternity leave following the birth of her third child, added: "Working with Phil is wonderful, I count myself incredibly lucky."
Holly's last appearance on This Morning was in mid-September 2014 when she bid a temporary farewell to the cast and crew and was surprised with a cake that said "Good luck Holly, we'll miss you!" on it.
Unable to keep her emotions in check, Holly shed a few tears, saying: "I won't be gone forever, just for a bit. I'm feeling quite weird about it. "A few weeks later she announced on Twitter that she and her husband Dan Baldwin had welcomed their third baby, a son Chester. The couple, who married in 2007, are already parents to six-year-old Harry and four-year-old Belle.
