Since her dramatic exit from This Morning after 14 years at the helm, Holly Willoughby has been lying low.
But fresh comments from her close friend Leigh Francis have sparked concern for the presenter, after he said she "isn't in a good place" two months on from leaving the show.
And speaking to new, a source has reinforced Leigh's remarks and claimed the mum-of-three is "struggling" and doesn't plan to return to her TV roots any time soon.
"Holly's taken a huge knock," the source said. "She was the golden girl of ITV, but she's had a horrible drop.
"She's at rock bottom at the minute. She's really not good, she's struggling - she feels people are judging her and she's scared."
