Former This Morning presenter Holly Willoughby is getting down and dirty as she gears up to host a new show with Bear Grylls that will hit screens on Netflix early next year
Holly Willoughby is getting her hands dirty in the first look for her new TV project.
Presenter and model Holly, 43, has shown off her adventurous looks as the first snaps of her upcoming Netflix show Celebrity Bear Hunt are released. The show, starring notorious explorer Bear Grylls, will see a host of famous faces making their way through the jungle in the hopes of learning survival skills.
The series was filmed earlier this year in the jungles of Costa Rica in Central America. Snaps of the star during filming are already showing, however, that Holly is willing to get stuck in, all for the sake of her new life post-This Morning.

In one snap, Holly could be seen donning beige army shorts and a khaki T-shirt akin to Lara Croft from Tomb Raider as she was lifted and carried in the air by a helicopter. Her luscious blonde locks billowing in the air, she was joined in the aircraft by a mysterious second figure, whose legs were also seen in the picture.

A second snapshot of the series sees Holly speaking to the line-up of famous faces – and it clear she got the memo of the strength needed for the challenges the celebrities will face. Sporting a host of brightly coloured beaded jewellery, the presenter bathed in the sunlight of the Central American nation as she gave instructions to the famous faces.
Sporting her khaki top once again, she paired the shirt with a tight-fit velvet skirt that perfectly hugged her curves before turning more loose at the bottom of the ensemble. Her make-up was also on point as she donned a full face of products that highlighted her dimples and her beaming smile, including a splash of bronzer and contour, while her eyes required just a touch of mascara.
A number of well-known stars have signed up for the challenge that will put them through their paces for our entertainment. Among the names already confirmed to be taking part in the tough new show are Spice Girl Mel B, tennis legend Boris Becker and Strictly Come Dancing head judge Shirley Ballas.
This will be Holly’s biggest TV project since This Morning after she left the programme in October 2023 following a kidnap and murder plot. Since then, she has slowly returned to the public eye, returning to host Dancing on Ice together with good pal and ITV favourite Stephen Mulhern.
The show is set to air across the world, and Netflix bosses are hoping that Holly’s bubbly personality and stunning looks will help make her a global sensation. Explaining the concept of the show, Netflix said: “Holly Willoughby hosts this action-packed competition show that sees a group of unlikely celebrities dropped into the Central American jungle as prey for one of the world’s most fearsome predators – Bear Grylls.
“Bear believes there’s an action hero inside us all, even the celebs,” the platform added. “But how strong is their will to survive?”
Celebrity Bear Hunt is set to hit screens on streaming platform Netflix on February 5, 2025.
