Holly Willoughby has shared her admiration for Joanne McNally, saying she loves the refreshing honesty the Irish comedian brings to the My Therapist Ghosted Me podcast, which she co-hosts with Vogue Williams<\/p>\n
Last month the former This Morning presenter launched her new YouTube series Holly Willoughby Together.<\/p>\n
On the latest episode her guest was comedian, podcaster, writer and presenter McNally, who was determined to convince Willoughby that tracksuits are the “ultimate wardrobe staple”.<\/p>\n
When introducing McNally, Willoughby admitted being a huge fan of the My Therapist Ghosted Me podcaster.<\/p>\n
She said: “I’m not sure I\u2019ve ever been so excited by anything in my entire life because today\u2019s guest I feel like I know her really, really well, but I think I\u2019ve met her once.<\/p>\n
“I\u2019ve stalked her on Instagram, I\u2019ve sent her messages and the reason why this is, is because of her podcast with Vogue Williams \u2026 but today Joanne McNally is in our studio, and we are going to be talking about tracksuits.<\/p>\n
“But before that I\u2019m obviously going to be asking her lots of questions I just want to know personally.”<\/p>\n
\n
After McNally joined her in the studio, Willoughby told her about her love of her podcast, which launched in 2021.<\/p>\n
“I love you. You and Vogue are the best things ever. There\u2019s not an episode I haven\u2019t listened to,” she said.<\/p>\n
“I also love that you girls are so open and honest. It\u2019s so refreshingly honest.”<\/p>\n
During their chat, Willoughby and McNally discussed other subjects including tattoos and McNally breaking the record for the most alcohol purchased by an audience during a single show at the London Palladium.<\/p>\n
The two went on to try a range of tracksuit styles during the 45-minute episode.<\/p>\n
Covering topics such as practical advice, fashion, beauty and health, Willoughby\u2019s new lifestyle channel, Together, launched on 28 July and has featured guests Stanley Tucci, Katherine Ryan and campaigner Ellen Roome, whose son Julian “Jools” Sweeney died in 2022 after what his mother believes was an online challenge went wrong.<\/p>\n
\n
Willoughby fronted ITV\u2019s This Morning for 14 years, but stepped down in 2023 months after her co-host Phillip Schofield left after admitting to an “unwise, but not illegal” affair with a young male colleague.<\/p>\n
She continued to present ITV\u2019s Dancing On Ice until it was announced in March 2025 that the show would be “rested” with no further plans for another series.<\/p>\n
The new Together episode will be available on YouTube and other digital streaming platforms from 7am on 7 August 7.<\/p>\n
