Holly Willoughby gives fans health update after a week off This Morning battling shingles

HOLLY Willoughby says she's "feeling so much better" after being off sick from This Morning with shingles.

The presenter, 42, updated fans after being off from the daytime show all week.

She shared a snap of her a special delivery from This Morning's Friday presenter Dermot O'Leary.

Holly wrote: "Thank you @dermotoleary for the sweetest delivery of chicken soup and salt beef... just what I needed.

"Feeling so much better. Thank you all for your well wishes."

Holly sparked fears she'd quit the show after going missing all week.

But her This Morning comeback was confirmed earlier today by Alison Hammondon Friday's show.

Signing off at the end of the episode, Alison said: "Bye everyone, Holly will be back next week!"

Her absence led some fans to question her future on This Morning.

One viewer said on Twitter: "Call me cynical bit I think we have seen the last of the Phil and Holly duo."

Another penned: "Holly pulling a sicky after her 2 week easter break, something is not right there, bet she's just trying to stay away."

And a third said: "Third day off, hmmmm!"

However, others looked forward to her planned return next week, and one typed: "Sending love and positive vibes to Holly Willoughby, hope you feel better soon! We'll miss you on This Morning next week."

Another said: "Holly Willoughby has shingles. Poor love, I’ve had it three times & it’s not at all pleasant. The recovery period is around 2-4 weeks so she may not be back on This Morning for a while. Wishing her all the best."
