This Morning presenter Holly Willoughby has hit out at paparazzi

The Brit Awards took place earlier this week and although we're still in awe at some of the celebrities dresses from the night, Holly Willoughby has slammed paparazzi from the night after taking photos 'up women's skirts'.

On the red carpet of the music event many of the celebrities wore a white rose as a sign of solidarity for victims of harassment and abuse. Similar to the Grammy's Award lots of celebs have been publicly supporting the Times Up and Me Too campaigns.

However TV presenter Holly Willoughby pointed out photographers failed to support the movement towards the end of the night.

Reposting a photo from This Morning's Instagram account, Holly wrote on her own social media account: "At the beginning of the night we held white roses and walked down a red carpet full of the hope and pride that comes with the #timesup campaign... at the end of the night, cameras were held low to get a photo up our skirts... times apparently up on #timesup 😔 "

Thousands of people praised Holly for speaking out on the important issue, with many of her followers revealing their anger at the photos. Scarlett Moffatt wrote: "This makes me so sad and disgusted. This is never done with men!!"

Emma Bunton also said: "#equality ✌🏼 #timesup love you Holly and my girls. X"

Another of Holly's followers pointed out: "Not unlike when the boys at school used to run up behind you and lift up your skirt. These men need to bloody well grow up and have some respect"

Someone else commented: "Really sad to hear and see this. As a Mum of daughters it makes me angry that this is still happening in 2018!! 😡 "

One more added: "When will women be allowed to wear whatever the heck they want without men or other women shaming them for it? Time is definitely not up on #timesup this just proves we’ve still got a long way to go!! We will keep fighting until we don’t have to any longer."

This isn't the first time Holly has spoken out about the new movement, last year she was praised by This Morning viewers after she supported the Me Too campaign.
