This is so scary!
Holly Willougby is currently living under police protection after an alleged kidnapping plot.
Viewers of This Morning were left confused when Holly's absence from yesterday's show wasn't explained.
But last night it was confirmed that the TV presenter was pulled from hosting the show at the last minute after they arrested a 36-year-old man in connection with attempting to kidnap her.

The Times reported that the UK police found "sinister messages" on the phone of the man in the question.
"A 36-year-old man from Harlow has been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to kidnap as part of an ongoing investigation," a spokesperson for the Essex police said.
It's said that Holly was informed of the plot to kidnap her right before she went on air and that she was "distraught" at the news.
We're not surprised, what a terrifying thing to go through!
It's being reported that Holly is currently at home in London with her husband and children while under 24-hour protection from the police.
