Holly, 42, broke her silence on the red carpet at The O2 in London and told The Sun: "If I am really honest, it has been up and down.
"It has been a difficult year for everybody but what’s lovely is you find that people rally around you and the goodwill is there.
"People want things to move on. It feels different."
The mum-of-three also posted a telling comment about "releasing negativity" and "new beginnings" shortly after Phil's social media snub was revealed.

Tonight Holly was supported by her This Morning co-star Alison Hammond, 48, at the NTA's.
Speaking about Alison, Holly shared: "She is so natural and wonderful, she is exactly as you see on the telly.
"She came into work today and she had brought me a belly chain – that sums her up.
"We have been close for a very long time, she has been on This Morning for longer than I have.

"When I first started she had been there since Big Brother days, it’s funny when people say, ‘You’re giving her advice,’ because she’s been in broadcasting longer than I have. It’s only because I have been sat on the sofa for longer.
"I think it’s a natural home for her and I think her and Dermot (O'Leary) are incredible."
Later in the night Alison lost out to Ant and Dec in the TV presenter category while This Morning was beaten by The Repair Shop for the Daytime gong.
Holly admitted that she would like a permanent co-host, telling The Sun: "Obviously one that that would be ideal."
When asked who she would like to team-up with, Holly continued: "That's the question, everyone keeps asking me and I guess I ask myself and the truth of it is, is that it's not really down to me.
"It's a bit like the NTA thing really, it's a viewer vote - we listen to what people say and think and the decision will be on who people like, rather than what I have to say.
"People think I have a lot to say and a lot of say in it."
