HOLLY Willoughby has been tipped to present the reboot of Gladiators when it returns next year. It's been confirmed that the sports game show will launch on the BBC in 2023 and is being produced by Holly's husband Dan Baldwin and his Hungry Bear production company.

It's been confirmed by ITV that the Olympics-style show, presented by Holly and Freddie Flintoff, will not be returning. Holly currently hosts This Morning and Dancing on Ice, both on ITV alongside Phillip Schofield, and is thought to earn more than £700k a year from the channel alone.
