Holly Willoughby has praised fellow television presenter Myleene Klass.

In an interview with The People, Willoughby explained that young women in the television industry are working hard at the moment.

"I blame Myleene," she joked. "She set the benchmark for us to follow."

The Xtra Factor presenter continued: "She has done very well for herself, people love her and want to give her work so she is definitely someone I hold in high regard."

Willoughby also praised Klass's parenting skills, remarking: "There's no doubt that she is also a very good mum.

"She takes her little girl everywhere with her. How can you criticise that? She's not scared of a bit of hard work, like me."
