Speaking at the ITV Gala on 24 November, the mum-of-three revealed that she is just as perfect at home as she is at work.

She told Best magazine that she had already done ALL of her Christmas cooking and most of her wrapping a whole month before the big day.

She said: "I have my family over on Christmas Day and my husband Dan's family on Boxing Day.

"I've done all my cooking already and I've also nearly wrapped all my presents."

Holly is arguably one of the busiest women in showbiz, with her high profile presenting gig for This Morning and plus fronting dating show Meet The Parents and sports quiz Blow The Whistle.

She also has a weekly spot as a panellist on Celebrity Juice, where she's inundated with innuendo from pervy Keith Lemon.

It's not a surprise that she has to be super-organised, but considering she also has Belle, Harry and Chester to look after.

Holly also told the mag about the year her eldest son almost caused chaos in the Willoughby-Baldwin household.

Speaking about 7-year-old Harry, she explained that when he was going through a 'blue phase', her and Dan were on tenterhooks after they presented him with a BLUE bike.

She laughed: "We were like, 'red's GREAT! It's the colour of Arsenal.... we got away with it."

Thankfully, her 'TV husband' Phillip Schofield is much easier to please.

Holly also made she got his present ready to go before the festive season - and nightly boozy parties - truly got underway.

She said: "I bought Phil's a long time ago.... and it's not drinkable."

Last month, Holly divided This Morning viewers when she revealed on the show that she had put her tree up a whole FIVE WEEKS early.

Phillip was shocked she had her tree up before the end of November but she said: "If you're going for it, you might as well go for it."

Now we know that she already had presents wrapped to go under it, it makes perfect sense.
