The telly favourite is mum to Harry, seven, Belle, five, and two-year-old Chester.

She captioned the gorgeous snap: "Everything I could possibly ever want on my birthday!!!!"

Holly will get to maximise her birthday celebrations as Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes host the ITV show on Fridays.

It comes after her This Morning family got Holly her very own unicorn and a tequila chocolate cake on Thursday.

At the end of the show, co-host Phillip Schofield presented her with her very own unicorn - which is actually Celebrity Big Brother's Tony the Pony in disguise.

Clad in a colourful blanket reading Happy Birthday Holly, pink sparkly top hat and other colourful attire, the unicorn was lead out by Gino D'Acampo.

Holly was clearly delighted with her gift, despite the fact little Tony sneezed on her pink velvet shoes at one point.

She gushed: "Oh my gosh it's my very own unicorn!"

While Phillip told her she didn't get to keep him, Holly was still thrilled to have him by her side.

The surprises didn't end there though, as Gino then wheeled on a birthday cake for the star, complete with chocolate cups filled with tequila, one of her favourite tipples.

Holly clocked them straightaway, and when Gino explained what they were, she asked: "Are you joking?"

Delighted to find out her cake featured all of her favourite things, Holly quickly handed out the little cups and necked her tequila.

Popping the chocolate in her mouth afterwards, she looked delighted, saying: "This is the stuff of dreams!"

Earlier in the day before the show went on air, Phillip surprised Holly again with another cake, documenting the whole thing on Snapchat.

His clip, taken in what looked to be the show's dressing room, captured Holly's expression of sheer shock as he led the celebratory song and an assistant placed a yellow-iced cake on the table next to Holly.

She opened her mouth in a delighted surprise before making numerous attempts to blow out the five candles as Phil completed the lines: "Happy Birthday dear Holly, Happy Birthday to you."

As she put out the last of the flames Brighton-born Holly squealed: "I've always wanted to do this!"

She then added: "I'm thirty six again," followed by a fist pump before thanking Phil and the team.
