Holly Willoughby has admitted that she did not find her husband attractive until long after she had met him.

The TV host worked on children's show Ministry of Mayhem for three months before she fell for Dan Baldwin, who was a producer on the programme.

"Neither of us thought about each other like that at all," Willoughby told New! magazine.

"We were just really good friends and then suddenly I just thought 'Oh, my God! I think I actually fancy Dan. This is weird, it's Dan. He's my friend.' It was definitely a bit of a slow burn."

Last month, Willoughby confirmed that she is expecting her first child with Baldwin.

She has now revealed: "Dan and I are both over the moon about the news and I am hugely excited about next year."
