If you ever wondered where Holly Willoughby inherited her looks from, then look no further, as the TV favourite has just posted a throwback of her mum Lynne to celebrate her 70th birthday.

Alongside a montage of black and white photographs of her mother, This Morning presenter Holly wrote, “Total and utter mega babe…then and now! My Mumma…70 today!

“Love you beyond… Happy Birthday beautiful.”

Fans could not BELIEVE that Lynne is now 70 and joked Holly must have made an error with her age!

The other photographs show Lynne from a toddler, all the way through to a teen, and to a more recent photograph of her standing beside Holly.

Fans of Holly, who is now a mum to three of her own children – Harry, eight, Belle, seven, and Chester, three  – couldn’t believe Lynne is 70!
