Holly Willoughby reveals she accidentally flashed while presenting 'wild' kids TV

Holly Willoughby has hilariously revealed that she accidentally flashed while presenting Ministry of Mayhem in the early days of her career.

Willoughby, an ITV favourite with hosting slots on This Morning and Dancing On Ice, made a confession about her “wild” nights out before presenting the children's show.

“There were times when we went straight from the hotel bar to going live on air,” she told the Mail’s Live magazine.

“Everyone in children’s TV drinks until 5am. If you mess up, no one cares. It got a bit too wild when my breast popped out of my dress.”

The moment Willoughby referred to involved her accidentally flashing to the audience after partying pretty hard.

In the wild moment, Willoughby jumped up and down in a camisole top and jeans but accidentally exposed herself before quickly covering herself with her hand as she danced in the studio.

Willoughby hosted the Saturday morning show alongside pal Mulhern from 2004-2006.

Originally called Ministry of Mayhem, it was later renamed Holly & Stephen's Saturday Showdown.

Earlier this week, Willoughby was left red-faced by reality star Joey Essex after getting confused over his birthday on This Morning.

Willoughby said it was “one of her favourite things to ever happen” after Essex explained that he was 28 and would be 30 next year.

Pulling the star up on his basic maths, Willoughby declared: “No you’re not, you’re 28!”

A bemused Essex then explained: “29 is this year though! Did I just trick you? How did you not realise that?”

This Morning is on ITV, weekdays at 10.30am
