This Morning presenter Holly Willoughby is being called out as a hypocrite as she is under fire again after her Glasto trip.
She apologised to subscribers of her wellness brand in an e-mail and she also didn’t make it to This Morning couch on Monday, one assumes she was partied out.
Willoughby returned to the couch on Tuesday and her co-host Craig Doyle asked: “What’s going on here then? The cold? A bit of hay fever?”
xplaining her croaky voice, she said: “I’ve been officially Glasto’d. This is what this voice is.
“It’s always my first thing to go and actually I blame Elton John for this.”
Email apology
But that is not the main reason people are not happy, we will get to that in a minute but here is here message.
She wrote:”I went to Glastonbury for the first time in years and made the most of every minute. What a weekend! Did you go? Or did you see any of it from the comfort of your own sofa to avoid having to share a loo with 200,000 other people?!”
Holly continued: “Thanks to the amazing weather, Glastonbury also gave great moon…beginning the weekend as a sliver of a moon that built to almost a half-moon by the end. I kept looking up at the night sky during the headline acts to see Mama Moon in all her glory, presiding over all of us. It’s so rare in the UK to have clear skies on consecutive evenings to watch her move through her phases. What a treat. This week brings us the Waxing Gibbous Moon, the lunar phase of reflection. I should think I’ll be doing a lot of reflecting and reminiscing this week given all the memories we’ve just made.
“When I think back, the feeling of being part of the crowd who witnessed Elton John perform his farewell show, is so humbling. ‘I Guess That’s Why They Call it the Blues’ is such a special song for Dan and I and I’m filled with nostalgic warmth when I remember all the moments we’ve listened to it together.
“Pure magic. Ok, I’ll stop with the Glastonbury gushing now…it’s time to get on to the important part!”
‘Hypocrite’ Holly Willoughby
But it was the fact she took a chopper to Glastonbury that has angered many.
The Sun reported back in 2020 she said: “We desperately want to do something, but we often feel powerless and I know for me, I also have two kids who are also really concerned for the environment so a lot of my fear really stems from worrying about their future.
“Worrying about other kids like them who are already experiencing the effects of climate change.”
It seems those concerns were put on the back burner as she took off in her helicopter.
