Holly Willoughby's selfies usually draw in hundreds of comments from fans complimenting her on her amazing style, but her latest picture has completely divided her fans.

The presenter posted a picture of herself over Christmas, enjoying the festivities and spending time with her family.

However, some of her 2.9 million followers on Instagram were quick to pull the 36-year-old This Morning presenter up over her caption on the photo.

Sharing an image of herself with her nan and EastEnders star Tamzin Outhwaite, Holly wrote: "Me and @glamzin and our Nonna Matriarch! In true EastEnders style... faaaaamly! Xxx FYI @glamzin is my cousin."

While many were shocked to find out that Holly and Tamzin were related, others were quick question whether or not they are 'cousins'.

Tamzin is actually Holly's husband, Dan's, cousin - sparking a huge debate online about whether or not Holly should be able to say that Tamzin is her cousin, too.

Some of Holly's followers wrote about the pair having 'good genes', but others were unhappy about her use of the word cousin.

One pointed out: "Its her husbands cousin FYI."

Another wrote: "Tamzin is Dan’s (Holly’s husbands) cousin not Holly’s. Confused AF but whatever."

Someone else added: "She’s dans cousin not Holly’s."

But others were quick to defend Holly, writing: "When you marry someone they become your family!!!!She is obviously proud of the fact!!!"

As the debate rages on, what do you think - would you do this with your partner, or is it unusual to refer to your OH's family as your own?
