Holly Willoughby turned up the heat with her latest Instagram post on Wednesday.

The Celebrity Bear Hunt, 44, put on a leggy display in a pink and purple floral mini dress that showed off her incredible figure.

The stunning ensemble only covered one shoulder and featured a fringe hem at the bottom.

She teamed the look with a black belt that cinched her in at the waist and added inches to her slender frame with a pair of black boots.

The beauty appeared in high spirits as she struck a seductive and playful pose at the camera.

Holly captioned the snap: ‘Sink or Swim, Ep 3, Celebrity Bear Hunt.’

It comes after the star was flooded with Birthday wishes after the star turned 44 years old on Monday.

She took on her presenting duties on Sunday night for Dancing On Ice ahead of her special day.

Among the famous pals to wish Holly a happy birthday was Canadian singer and TV host Nicole Appleton.

Sharing an array of snaps of her and ‘best friend’ Holly, Nicole, 50, wrote: ‘Happy birthday my precious girl!! I love you to bits!! XXX.’

Nicole shared a snap of her and Holly with their other celebrity friends, including Spice Girl Emma Bunton and Loose Women star Christine Lampard.

Elsewhere, Holly has reportedly earned the equivalent of £40,000 for every minute that she appeared on Netflix’s Celebrity Bear Hunt.

She has only appeared on the new show for a total of 24 minutes across the seven hours of the show, surprising viewers with how little she appeared on screen.

According to The Sun, Holly was paid a total of £1million for her appearance on the show as she joined survival expert, Bear Grylls.

A TV insider told the publication: ‘Viewers will be surprised just how little she features in the final version of the programme given all the attention there’s been surrounding the show.

‘Holly is a huge talent and very popular with viewers, plus she has decades of experience of presenting big TV shows, particularly live TV which requires a level of excellence few presenters have.

‘But in the final edit of Celebrity Bear Hunt she plays second fiddle to leading man Bear, and even gets less screen time than the dozen celebrities who are competing.’

Holly may be getting paid a eye-watering amounts but she is considerable less airtime than the celebrities on the show as she appears for an average of three minutes per episode.

MailOnline contacted representatives for Holly Willoughby and Netflix for comment at the time.

Holly recently admitted she was ‘totally out of her comfort zone’ and ‘scared’ ahead of the show’s launch.

In Friday’s episode of The Graham Norton Show, the presenter spoke about her challenging new TV hosting gig, set in a Costa Rican jungle which launched this week, more than a year after she announced her departure from her safe This Morning gig.

Holly, who commanded attention in an all-black ensemble, explained adventurer Bear Grylls, 50, even got her involved in some challenges throughout filming of the programme which sees him chase 12 celebrity contestants across the wild terrain.

‘Working with Bear Grylls has taken me totally out of my comfort zone.

‘The magic of Bear is that he is really convincing and inspirational and even got me to do stuff and I am the scaredest person ever.’

As Bear puts them through their paces, those who fail to impress will face the dreaded ‘Bear Hunt’ – a brutal game of cat and mouse where they’ll be hunted down by Bear himself and, if captured, face elimination from the show.

Filming of the show was so intense that Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, 59, nearly died during a freak raft accident where he was dragged underwater for several heart-stopping moments after getting entangled in a bungee rope before being pulled to safety.

The drama continued as Lottie Moss, 27, broke down in tears while opening up on her failed rehab stint for substance abuse and depression that ‘didn’t work’.

In emotional scenes, the former OnlyFans model couldn’t keep it together as she candidly told her co-stars that her 2022 stay ‘didn’t work’ and she was about to go into rehab again before starting the show.
