Holly Willoughby: I'm pregnant
XTRA Factor host Holly Willoughby's secret pregnancy was revealed last night when Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh blurted it out on the live show.
Her jaw dropped as Simon said: "Congratulations to you." Cheeky Louis added: "On the pregnancy."
Holly, 27, married to Dan Baldwin, a boss of the company that makes X Factor, stuttered: "I'm feeling emotional already tonight, let's move on."
But later she calmed down and joked with pop star Will Young on ITV2: "I can't have a beer, I'm pregnant!"
An X Factor source said "She wanted to decide when to go public and was probably going to do it with a magazine who would have paid good money for such a big story."
Holly's low-cut dresses made national news while presenting Dancing on Ice this year.
She will now be pregnant while filming the next series, expected to begin in February.

Who's the dumb ass who stated that Holly is so fake... fake boobs etc??
What a numb nut - couldnt be further from the truth!
Holly is the most down to earth and sincere person around!
I suspect Mark Bowles has a touch of the green eyed monster in him, maybe he can't get a girlfriend, or the one he has got is a troll??

I can't bear this woman, her voice is like nails down a blackboard.
She is so fake and insincere, I can't take her irritating, patronising twaddle, she sounds like a rodent, she has runied xtrafactor for me, but I guess she is not Fearne Cotton, she is more annoying

I think Holly has a fantastic sense of humour, she's not plastic, ust down to earth, get a life and be happy for her-maybe you need to start mixing with some real people.

I find it funny that you write your comments to Holly, like she is actually going to read them or care about what you say.

I didnt see the bit where simon and louis broke the news. But I did see her say to Will that she couldnt drink cos she was pregnant.
I thought it was a slip of the tongue cos I hadnt seen it anywhere in the press.
But congrats Holly.

SO SHE BECAME QUITE EMOTIONAL ON THE TELLY, MAYBE IF SHE WAS GOING TO SELL HER STORY FOR A LOT OF MONEY ( AS AN X FACTOR SOURCE STATED) THATS WHY SHE WAS CRYING......!!!!!!! BECAUSE SIMON AND LOUIS BROKE THE NEWS LIVE ON AIR!!!!!! WHATEVER THE TRUTH, GOOD LUCK WITH THE BABY, SHE IS GORGEOUS AND COMES ACROSS AS A LOVELY PERSON.
