30 Nov
Summary
- Holly Willoughby faces a court hearing for 'driving carelessly' in her Mini Cooper.
- The offense reportedly occurred on August 28 near her London home.
- She could face penalty points, a fine, or a driving ban.
Holly Willoughby is scheduled to appear at Lavender Hill Magistrates' Court following a 'driving carelessly' charge related to her Mini Cooper. The alleged offense occurred on August 28, near her multi-million-pound home in London. Sentencing guidelines indicate potential consequences ranging from up to nine penalty points and a fine to a driving ban in severe cases.
The charge, under the Road Traffic Act 1988, covers various distractions while driving. Ms. Willoughby's summons follows a tumultuous period, including public fallout with ex-co-host Phillip Schofield and her departure from This Morning due to safety concerns. Recently, a stalker who threatened her was sentenced to life in prison.
Despite recent career setbacks, including a canceled Netflix show and the 'rest' of Dancing on Ice, Willoughby remains a popular figure. She is widely tipped as a favorite to host Strictly Come Dancing. Representatives for Ms. Willoughby have been approached for comment.
