The pair then went on to discuss their Christmas break.
Viewers were gutted to not see Holly on the programme.
One person said on Twitter: “Here we go again ‘Holly is having a few extra days off’.”
Another wrote: “Where is Holly…”
A third added: “Good morning! It’s the first show of 2021 and Holly is nowhere to be found.”
It comes weeks after Holly took a couple of days off the show after her children suffered a coronavirus scare.
In November, Holly explained she and her family followed Government guidelines and waited for test results – which came back negative.
What did Holly say?
She wrote on Instagram: “Over the last few days, two of our children were unwell and had symptoms of COVID.
“In line with Government guidelines, we were waiting for results for the tests before I could return to work.”

“I chose not to alert everyone to this because my focus was on looking after them.
“Thankfully all tests come back negative and everybody’s feeling much better.”
