Holly Willoughby has admitted that she’s not looking to take on any more work at this time, because she wants her focus to be on her children instead.

The 36-year-old mum-of-three made the revelation in an interview with The Sun, where she confessed that being a parent is the, 'greatest job I'll ever do' and therefore being a mum to her kids is going to be her, 'main focus over the next few years.'

to The Sun, Holly revealed, 'I don't really want to do more [work], I just want to pause everything and keep everything as is. Work is in a really lovely place and I'm really happy with This Morning.'

'My main focus over the next few years is churning out three very grounded, normal, happy, content children, teenagers and adults, eventually.' she added.

Holly Willoughby is mum to three children with her husband Dan, Harry, 8, Belle, 6, and her youngest son Chester who is 3. She recently posted a rare snap of Chester playing by the pool with her on holiday.

Holly joked before the start of Dancing On Ice this year that she may well fall pregnant during the filming of the show, as she has been expecting every time she has filmed it previously.

However, proving that this really was just a joke, Holly confirmed in September last year in a Facebook Live interview that she won’t be having any more children, despite the fact that she 'loved being pregnant.'

'No more babies' she stated. 'But I don't want to say that because it really upsets me. You know, I already miss all of that, I loved being pregnant, I loved giving birth.’
