Holly Willoughby slammed by ‘posh’ neighbours for bizarre reason

The star's new addition hasn't gone down well

This Morning host Holly Willoughby has found herself in an altercation with her neighbours after flying an Union Jack flag over her £3 million home.

The mum-of-three and hubby Daniel Baldwin proudly put up the flag on a flagpole on a tower at her six-bedroom mansion.

But it seems the presenter’s neighbours were not impressed.

Speaking to the Mirror one local said: “We don’t hang the Union Jack or St George flag outside our properties, so why should she?

“It’s in one of the most desirable streets, we’re either Conservatives or Liberal Democrats in this area ­traditionally, not BNP.

“It’s not really becoming of the area. The house is one of the oldest in the neighbourhood, and has a prominent tower. It’s never had a Union Jack on it before.”

Holly, 36, and Daniel found themselves in a similar situation last year after they annoyed neighbours by planning to expand their home.

The couple wanted to build a two-storey building attached to the main house but after many complaints from other residents the plan didn’t go ahead.

Meanwhile the blonde beauty recently shared an adorable snap of herself and dad Brian.

The star posted the photo during This Morning Live last week as she wrote: “Having a fab day at @thismorning @tmliveevent in Birmingham and look whose [sic] here with me!

“Papa Willoughby is on the @everesthomeimprovements #everest stage… talk about worlds collide! #takeyourdadtoworkday #tmlive xxx.”

But fans were much more distracted by Brian’s “foxy” looks than anything else.

One fan said: “ERM HOLLY… your Dads a fox…!”

“Your dad looks fab, Holly,” another added.

Holly hosted This Morning Live in Birmingham with co-star Phillip Schofield, 55, at the end of last week.

Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford stood in for the hosts on the original ITV show.

But viewers were left outraged after they realised they would be watching the show from the This Morning London studios rather than Birmingham.

One said on Twitter: “What’s the point of this morning live if they are hardly showing it on the tv? #thismorning.”
