Holly Willoughby opens up about moment her son Harry had a very public temper tantrum
The presenter admitted she felt her parenting skills were being judged
HOLLY Willoughby opened up about an embarrassing moment when her son Harry had a public tempter tantrum.
During a phone-in on This Morning, the star sympathised with a mother who was asking for advice on how to control her daughter during her non-stop temper tantrums.
Mother-of-three Holly admitted: "I had to do it with Harry once in the middle of Marks and Spencer. I wanted to die."
Explaining why it was essential to stand your ground as a parent in that situation, she continued: "It was the worst thing. He just flipped.
"I thought if I take you out or if I cave or if I just give in, I know you are going to do this again and again."
The 36-year-old explained: "I wanted the ground to swallow me up because everyone was looking at me and going, 'Oh, there's that Holly Willoughby, she can't control her kid, she's not a very good mum'.
"I wanted to die but he didn't do it again after that."
Earlier in the show, Holly was seen revealing her disgust at the suggestion that picking your nose and eating the bogie is actually good for your health.
While she was also seen descending into a fit of giggles with Phil when former Big Brother star Alison Hammond launched an RNLI lifeboat launch.
Alison was seen screaming her heart out during the hilarious segment on Thursday's show.
