Holly was joined by Craig Doyle, 53 – a popular stand-in host for axed This Morning anchor Phillip, 61, as they chatted to Broadway star Idina Menzel, 52.
The mum-of-three, in a pretty floral frock, quizzed the singer on the 10th anniversary of Frozen, as well as her role as Wicked’s green witch, Elphaba.
Yet ITV viewers who were tuning in half-way through the episode – fronted live by Emma Willis, 47, and Rylan Clark, 35 – were left totally stunned by Holly’s comeback.
One took to X to muse: “Just tuned in thought Holly left #thismorning.”

Another wrote: “This shows #thismorning misses Holly,” as one commented: “Viewers just switching on will think Holly’s back!”
Another mused: “Are they begging Holly to come back or what…” as one put: “Oh they have included her…”
One then clarified the situation and put: “Calm your t**s, guys, it’s a compilation clip. Holly hasn’t actually returned.”
Earlier this year, Holly thanked her viewers as she shared an emotional statement revealing she had left the ITV show.
In an Instagram post Holly wrote: “I have let ITV know today that after 14 years, I will not be returning to This Morning. To everyone who has ever worked on the show over the years, thank you so so much.
“This is such a difficult goodbye, you are incredible and I forever will be proud of what we’ve done together.I will not be returning to This Morning.
“Thank you to everyone at ITV for being supportive. To every guest who has sat on our sofa, thank you.
“Most of all, thank you to the wonderful viewers. You’ve been so loyal so supportive and the very best company every day.
“Richard and Judy said ‘we only look after this show, it will always belong to the viewers’.
“It’s been an honour to just be part of its story and I know this story has many chapters left to go.
“Sadly, however, I now feel I have to make this decision for me and my family. I will miss you all so much. Holly.”
Back in May, Holly’s co-star Phil had had an affair with a young employee, which later saw him resign from the show – sparking chaos on the ITV daytime series.
Meanwhile, Holly’s huge career switch came after it was revealed she was the victim of an alleged foiled kidnap plot.
Having lost her sidekick of 14 years, Holly then faced a horrific alleged kidnap plot which saw Gavin Plumb, 36, of Essex, accused of contacting a “hitman” in the US and allegedly making a restraint kit as part of a plan to snatch her.
