Holly Willoughby breaks social media silence to thank sister for flowers

The beautiful bouquet was accompanied by a touching note

Holly Willoughby has shared a photo of a super-sweet gift she received from her sister Kelly.

The blonde beauty uploaded a snap showing a gorgeous bunch of white and lilac flowers alongside a heartwarming message from her big sister.

The two share an extremely close bond and previously admitted they “talk to each other every day”.

In the photo, the mum-of-three gave fans a glimpse at the beautiful bouquet but made Kelly’s sweet message the main focus.

It read: “In a hundred lifetimes in a hundred worlds, I’d find you and I’d choose you to be my sister. Thank you xxx.”

The This Morning host captioned the post: “When your sister floors you with a bunch of flowers… love you Kelly… xxxx 💕👯👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩.”

Fans rushed to comment on the pic as one gushed: “How wonderful. I wish I had a sister.”

Another said: “This has me crying. How lovely!”

“Such beautiful words ❤,” a third said.

Holly and Kelly share an incredibly close bond but admitted they are “like chalk and cheese”.

Kelly previously opened up about their differences but revealed that’s why they share such a great relationship.

She told Celebsnow: “Holly and I are like chalk and cheese – even down to our hair colour.

“Despite this, we’re still incredibly close. She was a quiet child at school, but I remember watching her suddenly find herself once she’d done bits of modelling and started college.

“She just became stronger, confident. It was amazing to watch.”

Meanwhile Holly will soon be returning to the This Morning sofa with co-star Phillip Schofield on September 5.

It was reported last week that the star will be getting a HUGE pay rise to match her presenting partner’s salary.

It’s been said that Holly, who is married to Daniel Baldwin, has been awarded £200K and will now earn the exact same as Phil, 55, for hosting the lunchtime show.

The pair have worked together for 11 years and will soon host the brand new series of Dancing On Ice – where they will be receiving the same fee also.

It’s believed that TV bosses decided to increase Holly’s salary after realising the duo were receiving the same £200K fee for the skating show but not for This Morning.

A source told the Mirror: “It seemed ridiculous they were going to get paid the same fee for Dancing on Ice but Holly was lagging behind on This Morning.

“Quite rightly, that has now been rectified and they both earn exactly the same.”

It was previously said that the presenter was earning £400,000 for her role on the daytime show while Phil was getting a whopping £600K.

The pair have been enjoying a well-deserved summer break since handing over presenting duties to Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford at the end of July.

Despite not having to work together for six weeks the duo still enjoyed each other’s company away from work as they soaked up the sun on a holiday to Portugal.

Along with their partners and TV pal Bradley Walsh the group shared a very boozy evening.

Phil shared a series of hilarious videos of himself, Holly and Bradley enjoying glasses of wine and of course, shots!

From what we could see, the stars of daytime were seated around the table with their mates and partners with big glasses of wine to hand as a tray of shots was passed around between them.

In the background someone could be heard shouting out something about the “whole bottle” to which Bradley replies, “That’s for me. That’s great, that is sensational.”

We just love these guys!
