TV host Holly Willoughby’s ‘twin’ sister and famous EastEnders cousin
TV presenter Holly Willoughby has become a household name across the country.
The popular mum-of-three has been a host on TV for over two decades and has always been transparent when sharing life updates on social media.
However Holly, aged 40, has always been reserved when it comes to her family, as reported by Yorkshire Live.
Holly is a mum to Harry, 11, Belle, nine, and Chester, six, with her partner Dan Baldwin and she refrains from posting pictures of the kids’ faces online.
Holly has previously stated: “If you show one photograph then they’re out there”, and that images posted to social media are “consumption for everybody”.
Holly has one sister, Kelly, and earlier this year fans went into meltdown after Holly shared a photograph of the two of them together.
Posting on Instagram in May, Holly captioned the picture: “Happy birthday to my beautifully brilliant wing woman… I love you @ladywilloughby be lost without you… let’s see what this year brings shall we…. [emojis]
“(this is an old picture taken before social distancing FYI ) [emoji].”
Some who saw the rare snap were shocked by the striking family resemblance.

chaarnii_ said: “Wow you two are so alike, you actually have the same face! Could be twins”

In September of this year, Holly revealed she was related to a certain EastEnders actress.
Following a guest detective appearance on The Masked Dancer, Holly told This Morning viewers she is Tamzin Outhwaite’s cousin.
Tamzin danced as a Scarecrow on the hit competition, with Holly appearing in the same episode which saw her unmasked.
When the actress – best known for playing Mel Owen in the BBC soap – appeared on the sofa to chat to Holly and Phillip Schofield, Holly said she couldn’t believe she didn’t work out The Scarecrow was a member of her own family.
On This Morning, Holly told her: “I loved you so much in that. I clearly didn’t guess who you were, which is slightly embarrassing bearing in mind we are practically related.”
A cheery Tamzin responded: “That’s all right!”
The pair are actually related through marriage – with Holly calling Tamzin her cousin in the past.
Tamzin is a blood relative of Holly’s TV producer husband Dan Baldwin.
