Holly’s weightloss secret!
She’s been showered with compliments, but just how has Holly Willoughby achieved her svelte new look?
‘As long as I’m being healthy, that’s good enough for me...’
She’s famously tight-lipped about how she keeps in shape, but when This
Morning host Holly Willoughby stepped out at a recent awards ceremony, there was no denying she was looking slender. The TV star – known for her enviable curves – stunned in a fitted, floral floor-length dress, as her fans took to social media to inundate her with compliments, and beg her for the secret behind her trim figure! While Holly, 36, chose to keep quiet, it was later revealed that her weight loss is partly down to Pilates.
The director of Body Control Pilates, Lynne Robinson, explained Holly had signed up for a series of private sessions, following the birth of her second child Belle, six, with husband Daniel Baldwin.
Lynne said, ‘I worked with Holly for several months, teaching her privately at her home once a week.’
The fitness instructor recommends new mums to take her postnatal matwork classes, which concentrate on exercises that ‘strengthen the pelvic floor, trim the waist and flatten the stomach’.
Pilates specialist Laurel Alper from laurelalper. co.uk tells best, ‘Holly looks fantastic. In the space of seven months, it looks like she’s gradually gone from a size 14 to a size 12, and now looks like a size 8.’
However, it’s unlikely Holly herself will go into detail about her weight loss, as she has previously revealed she’s made a conscious decision not to talk about her eating habits because she doesn’t want to promote eating disorders.
The mum-of-three explained, ‘I actually avoid talking about my diet and exercise regime, because I have interviewed so many people affected by eating disorders. I know that some people can really fixate on other people’s diets.’
She went on to say, ‘As long as I’m being healthy, that’s good enough for me. I’m quite active, and I try not to let the way I look be the main focus, because it’s not the important thing.’
Well, Holly’s attitude to her weight is obviously working – she looks great!
