Phillip Schofield's sweet message to 'bestie' Holly Willoughby as she announces work move

Phillip Schofield has shared a sweet message to his 'bestie' Holly Wolloughby as she announced a brand new work move.

The 40-year-old revealed on Monday that the 'secret project' she had been working on was in fact her very first book.

Holly described the book, which is titled Reflections, as "thoughts and musings" from her on "inner and outer beauty."

She also said that she'll "share my truths in the hope that maybe they’ll help you too," in the book which is released later this year.

Holly was flooded with support from her celeb pals and fans - including her This Morning co-host Phil.

He shared Holly's post to his own Instagram story and shared: "[two applause emojis] to my bestie.

"If your wisdom does for everyone, what it did for me, it's a bestseller already."

The 59-year-old presenter added: "Welcome to the book club," after he released his autobiography, Life's What You Make It, back in October last year.

Holly re-shared his post and told him: "Love you."

Also among Holly's supporters was, of course, her sister Kelly who commented on her announcement: "Beyond wonderful....beyond proud of you Dolly."

Friend and Spice Girls star Emma Bunton also shared the news and wrote: "My beautiful friend inside and out, I feel so lucky to be around her and see her pure energy first hand!

!I can’t wait to read her new book. Love you to bits my special lady @hollywilloughby #reflections."

Alongside a snap of the cover of her book, Holly wrote to her millions of Instagram followers: "This is a message I’ve been looking forward to sending... I’ve been working on a very special project - a book!

"Writing is such a personal process and between these pages you will find many little pieces of me. The book is called Reflections and is essentially thoughts and musings from me on inner and outer beauty.

"We live in a world where so much is about how we present ourselves on the outside and there is fun to be had here but true beauty comes from within… there is an alignment that needs to happen and finding that balance hasn’t always felt so easy."

The mum-of-three goes on to explain how she's finally at a point in my life where I can see a little more clearly," before continuing: "And I want to share my truths in the hope that maybe they’ll help you too.

"This book is my celebration of how inner and outer beauty can work together in perfect harmony. I hope this book will start conversations, whether they’re about how to find your signature lipstick, reclaim your sexuality, or treat yourself more kindly – and, ultimately, what it means to feel beautiful, confident, complete."

She added: "I can’t wait to share it with you all and yet can’t help but feel nervous at the same time...

"I think the more important something is... the scarier it feels... deep breath... I hope you enjoy it.... #reflections."
