Since quitting the show, she's fronted a revived version of Cilla Black's 'Surprise Surprise', and sports panel show 'Play To The Whistle' alongside Frank Lampard and Bradley Walsh. She is also the host of new ITV dating show 'Meet The Parents'. Holly is married to TV producer Dan Baldwin, and the couple have three children - Harry, Belle and Chester.
