Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield's history - 'fear' to confidantes and secret she kept

mirror.co.uk:

As far as TV pairings go, Dancing on Ice hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby give Ant and Dec a run for their money in terms of being inseparable.

It was on the skating show that the This Morning duo first met back in 2006, and from that moment on they forged a beautiful friendship that has seen them through marriage, babies and perhaps the most earth-shattering moment of Phil's life.

When Phil came out as gay on This Morning in February last year, it was his co-host and best friend Holly who held his hand as poured his heart out to the nation.

Wrapping a comforting arm around the man who convinced show bosses to hire her back in 2009, Holly held Phil tight as he sobbed in moving scenes.
