Sporting a rare makeup-free look, Holly looked radiant in a pastel yellow knit cardigan and a cream apron. Her signature blonde bob was worn down, complimenting her fresh-faced look.

40-year-old Holly proudly held up a handful of freshly grown radishes – an achievement after last weeks' corn on the cob saga.

Puzzled, co-host Phillip Schofield said: "But corn on the cob grows off the plant?" Falling into fits of laughter, Holly remarked: "Does it? Well I'm looking in the wrong place then. I thought it was like a carrot?"

Rushing to the comments to praise Holly for her efforts, many celebs were impressed with the star's achievements. "Yessssssss" wrote fellow This Morning presenter Rochelle Humes, whilst Kelly Brook wrote "Yum!!!! Crudites".

Teasing Holly in the comments, one fan wrote: "Doing better than the corn", whilst another joked: "Hurrary! Something that grows under the ground".

Just five days ago the stunning mum-of-three shared a photo of her radishes sprouting from the vegetable patch at her London home. "Yet somehow [I've] managed to grow a radish… that is a radish right?" Holly wrote.

We can't wait to see what homegrown creations and delicious dishes Holly whips up with her newfound love for horticulture.
