Holly Willoughby has made an admission about underwear as she shared some unknown details about her wedding day. The This Morning star has shared that she'll be celebrating her 16th wedding anniversary this month with her husband Dan Baldwin.

While she may be away from the small screen as she enjoys an eight-week break off of the ITV daytime show, Holly is still doing a bit of work as she keeps up to date with the goings on at her wellness brand Wylde Moon.

The 42-year-old launched the business venture after being inspired by 'sound baths' during her time in Australia in 2018 when she stepped in for Ant McPartlin to host hit reality show I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! alongside Dec Donnelly.

The lifestyle website explores topics from 'beauty and fashion to energy and healing' and features its own boutique, where Holly has launched her own perfumes, candles, wax melts and reed diffusers.

But as well as all of that, the TV star sends out a weekly newsletter and in her latest message, Holly posted a picture of herself and her husband Dan Baldwin sharing a kiss as they sat on the beach during sunset, seemingly during their current break in Portugal.

Holly went on to share her love of August and she then went on to share why this month may be her favourite as the mum-of-three continued to type: "August also happens to be the month I got married, so it’s always a nostalgic time for Dan and I. It will be 16 years this year, which feels crazy in so many ways."

As well as chatting about her husband and her marriage in her newsletter, Holly has also done a whole Q&A on her wedding day which took place in 2007 at St Michael's Church on the South Downs in West Sussex before hosting their wedding reception at Amberley Castle.

"Amberley is a beautiful, fairy-tale castle I used to visit when I was little for very special family occasions. I always dreamt that one day I’d get married there," Holly said in her new journal on Wylde Moon. "So, when Dan proposed, I took him to see it and he fell in love with it too."

She shared how her mum's wedding dress from decades earlier inspired her own design before sharing that she walked down the aisle to a string quartet playing ‘Suddenly it Happens’ from her favourite film growing up, Slipper & The Rose, while Holly and Dan's first dance was to English Rose by Paul Weller.

"When Dan and I first got together I went on a girls’ holiday to LA with Fearne Cotton and Dan made me a mix tape, because that’s how old I am." she revealed. "The first song, which he told me not to play until I was taxiing down the runway, was English Rose."

When asked to divulge something people don't know about her wedding, it is then when Holly confessed: "It’s obviously very important to get your underwear right under your wedding dress, and even more so with a backless dress.

"My amazing dressmaker had a vintage pattern for a bunny girl outfit. She adapted a 1960’s original bunny girl corset by cutting the back so low, it didn’t show. She even made me a fluffy tail – but I’m not sure that ever saw the light of day!"

Holly met Dan when she hosted Ministry of Mayhem with fellow ITV star Stephen Mulhern back in 2004. Dan was one of the show's producers and he has also been behind many other top show's, using his production company Hungry Bear Media which he co-founded in 2014 with Juliet Denison.

Three years after meeting, Holly and Dan tied the knot and now share their three children together - Harry, Belle and Chester.
