Talking to Philip Schofield on Friday, Holly Willoughby joked that if her baby comes earlier than her September due date she may go into labour on air.

33-year-old Holly said: 'Belle was five weeks early, and Harry was two weeks early so I'm planning on coming back for a bit [from September].'

'But there's a huge possibility that I could go into labour in September on screen.'

Schofield remained unruffled by Holly's suggestion, saying: 'Don't you worry, I've been here long enough to know what to do - I'm fully trained.'

However Holly said she'd be the first one to run away from the cameras if she did start having contractions, adding that you 'won't even see my dust as I whizz out.'

Co-presenter Philip seemed somewhat disappointed at Holly backing out, joking that a live birth would make a 'fantastic feature' for their viewers.
