Holly Willougby in on-air 'draws' blunder - and Phillip Schofield couldn't help but mock her for it

We do love a bit of This Morning chaos and Holly Willoughby's latest on-air blunder was the giggle we didn't expect from today's show.

The telly star was left in a bit of a live TV debacle but co-host Phillip Schofiled wasn't letting her get away with it too easily when he made a cheeky joke at her expense.

Holly started Monday's edition of the ITV favourite by telling viewers what was coming up on today's show - including all the latest gossip straight from the Love Island villa.

But her mistake came as she revealed she has a connection to one of its recently dumped stars.

The 38-year-old said: "As events begin to hot up in Casa Amor, we've got all the Love Island gossip including an exclusive chat with dumped love islander Tom, who I've met before!"

Without initially revealing how she knew the former Islander, Holly then get into a bit a twist.

"My draw, jaw nearly hit the floor when I found out," she said.

However naughty pal Phil was quick to pick up on her blunder and asked: "Your draw, your drawers dropped?"

Just to reiterate, she meant jaw (ITV)

Trying to wriggle out of the situation without losing it in a fit of giggles, Holly responded: "Just my jaw."

But 57-year-old Schofe wasn't quite finished mocking his mate, continuing: "Look at that she's shocked, her knickers are down again!"

Covering her face with her hand as she laughed, Holly replied: "No that's not what I meant!"

The mum-of-three did later discuss how she knew Tom.

Holly said she had met the 29-year-old when he was only 12 because his dad was a director on kids' TV show Ministry of Mayhem.

She presented the programme alongside Stephen Mulhern up until 2006.

Holly said: "We actually met when you were 12 didn't we.

"I was doing Saturday morning Ministry of Mayhem and your dad was the director and he used to bring you in.

"I remember every week he'd bring you in and we'd have a chat."
