Holly Willoughby: I might give up Xtra Factor for baby

Holly Willoughby has said she’s tempted to cut back her work commitments after she gives birth to her first child later this year.

The baby is due in May just weeks before filming starts on The X Factor, with Holly presenting the spin-off ITV2 show The Xtra Factor, which is made up of behind the scenes action and interviews from the main show.

Holly told Closer magazine: “I don’t know if I’ll be back on The X Factor.

“It’s going to be shortly after the arrival - and I don’t know if I want to rush. It’s a decision I need to make soon.

“I absolutely love being in The X Factor, but we’ve got to see if we can work it out.”

Holly announced her pregnancy live on the show last year. She is currently presenting ITV’s celebrity ice skating dance-off Dancing on Ice.
