Holly Willoughby has revealed the toll being a busy mum-of-three has taken on her social life by saying: "It's just not worth it."

Oh, Holly, how right you are!

The 34-year-old TV presenter gave birth to baby Chester last September and she and husband Dan Baldwin also have five-year-old son Harry and daughter Belle, four.

And in an interview with the Belfast Telegraph, Holly said she doesn't get out much because of the toll of the aftermath of a late night when there are children's needs to take care of the next morning.

She said: "It's just not worth it. It's fun at the time and then the next day you go, 'Oh I can't do it'. It makes it all so much harder."

However, she isn't lamenting the loss of her social life and said she's happier than ever with her growing family.

The This Morning star said: "Since Chester has come along the family feels in a good place. Three just feels like a good number - we're very happy with what we have.

She also said she's incredibly happy to have a family at a relatively young age.

"I was so lucky to meet Dan when I did. I was quite young but it just means you get longer with him. We had time before we had our first child, but we were ready to have children quite early."

Holly took time off after the birth of her youngest last autumn, but was back at work after three months on ITV show Surprise, Surprise.

She's still on maternity leave from her presenting role on This Morning but is said to be returning shortly, taking back her place on the TV couch from her stand-ins Christine Bleakley and Amanda Holden.
