Holly Willoughby reveals pride over son Harry volunteering in rare parenting comments

Holly Willoughby revealed that her eldest son Harry is volunteering as part of his Duke of Edinburgh award.

Holly, 42, is mum to Harry, 13, Belle, 11, and Chester, seven with husband Dan Baldwin, who she married in 2007.

During Monday’s This Morning show, Holly and her co-host Phillip Schofield were joined by regular guests Camilla Tominey and Gyles Brandreth to chat about The Big Help Out.

The app, which has been promoted by Faye Winter and Deborah Meaden, matches volunteers with opportunities in areas like elderly care, the environment and animal welfare.

“Get out there and think about volunteering, actually make your life a bit more dynamic, become involved in helping other people,” Gyles explained.

He continued to explain that people could volunteer much like King Charles, who has been involved in philanthropy for half a century.

At this point, Holly explained: “My eldest Harry, he’s volunteering at the moment because he’s doing his bronze Duke of Edinburgh.


“It’s the first time he’s done anything like that, and I tell you what, he’s got a real spring in his step. He goes off, he takes himself there, he goes and does his volunteering, he’s always got something to talk about.”

“As much as they get his time, which is helpful and useful, he’s getting so much back himself, and I can see it in him.”

On Sunday, Holly celebrated Mother’s Day with a touching tribute to her mum, Linda, on social media.

She uploaded a picture that featured her in a brown and white polka dot blouse as her mum could be seen beside her in a blue ensemble with layered silver chains.

In the caption, Holly wrote: “Happy Mother’s Day beautiful Mumma… Always there for us in every way… Couldn’t be more blessed… Love you.”

Fans gushed over the lookalike pair in the comments section, with many arguing that they looked more like “sisters.”

One person wrote: “Happy Mother’s Day to you both gorgeous Holly you stunner! Xx.”

“Happy Mother's Day 2 U both Holly.Love the picture & U both look so happy.Hope U both have a great day,” another said, with a third adding, “Your mum is gorgeous x (you are too ) x.”
