Holly Willoughby was left fretting over a wardrobe malfunction on today’s instalment of This Morning when Phillip Schofield raised a red flag.
The ITV star was convinced Holly’s necklace had snapped, as he gestured to the strings of pearls embroidered across her front.
As the opening credits rolled, Phillip exclaimed: “Your necklace is broken by the way!”
Looking stunned, Holly reached up to her neck, before smiling and realising her co-star had cracked a joke.
She replied: “Ooh got my pearls on today.”
Thrilled he had managed to prank his longtime pal, Phillip erupted into giggles, before welcoming the first guest to the show.
Mum-of-three Holly shared a snap of her outfit over Instagram, letting fans know where they could shop the look for themselves.

Featuring a plunging neckline and a full skirt, the sophisticated frock was designed by French fashion house Sandro.
Blonde bombshell Holly wore her platinum locks in a classic bob, swept to one side and styled in gentle waves.
By way of accessories, pointed black stiletto heels added further elegance to the monochrome look.
