It comes as Holly could continue her TV career in America after leaving This Morning last year when she became the subject of a terrifying kidnapping plot.
For the first time in her career, she is now a “free agent” and is eager to explore opportunities across the pond and put an end to her domestic problems.
After her ‘year from hell’, which saw her involved in Phillip Schofield’s controversial exit on This Morning and becoming the subject of the kidnapping plot, Holly could continue her television career in the US.
It’s a scenario that seemed highly unlikely just 18 months ago, when defendant Holly became embroiled in a contract battle between ITV and the BBC.
However, for the first time in her career, she is now a “free agent” and is eager to explore opportunities across the pond and put an end to her domestic problems.
It comes as Holly could continue her TV career in America after leaving This Morning last year when she became the subject of a terrifying kidnapping plot.
For the first time in her career, she is now a “free agent” and is eager to explore opportunities across the pond and put an end to her domestic problems.
It’s a prospect that “excites” her, although discussions are still at a relatively early stage.
With her three children settled at school and her husband Dan Baldwin running a highly successful television production company, a move to the United States would be a seismic move for everyone involved, of which she is well aware.
But these days, the Dancing On Ice presenter feels there’s nothing wrong with seeing what’s out there and finding out if she can follow in the footsteps of fellow Brits James Corden and Cat Deeley by landing lucrative TV jobs across the pond.
A source said: “Holly has had an incredibly difficult year, it has really worn her down.”
“She thought a lot about coming back for Dancing On Ice and it turned out to be the right decision, getting her back on the beat again.
‘Working in America has always been on her mind, but due to circumstances, it has now become a genuine reality and that excites her.
“Discussions are taking place and she is in no rush to take on any role, but if there is a presenting job she is passionate about in the US, she is now free to explore it.”
Holly quit This Morning after 14 years in October following Phillip’s sacking from the station.
The return comes after Holly quit This Morning after 14 years in October following the sacking of Phillip Schofield from the station (pictured in May).
She left the show after admitting to having an affair with a younger colleague and lying to her co-star when asked about the growing speculation.
After returning to the ITV show without him, Holly was mocked for the statement she made addressing the nation, asking if viewers were “ok” following the revelation.
She then faced a new setback when a man was arrested for an alleged plot to kidnap and murder her, leaving her terrified.
She was reportedly too afraid to leave her house after Gavin Plumb was accused of the crime, forcing her to go off the air for months.
She deliberated over whether to host Dancing On Ice with new co-host Stephen Mulhern, eventually deciding to return to work in the New Year.
But it could be the last show she presents in the UK before heading to the US and sources close to Holly say it is the first time in her career that she is a “free agent” and looking for new prospects.
A source told the Sun on Sunday that he will meet “American bigwigs”, including the bosses of streaming platform Disney+.
They explained: “Holly is a free agent and for the first time in years she is free to be courted by these huge streaming platforms.”
“Several American networks and production companies have been interested in it for some time and it has caught the attention of some major brands.”
Holly won’t be the first British star to break into the United States.
TV presenter Cat spent 14 years in Hollywood after becoming the award-winning host of So You Think You Can Dance.
Meanwhile, James hosted the American talk show The Late Late Show from 2015 to 2023, establishing himself as a top star in the United States.
