Holly Willoughby has pleaded guilty to knocking a scooter rider off their bike in an August driving incident, it is reported.

The former This Morning host, 44, was accused of careless driving while at the wheel of her Mini Cooper near her west London home on August 28, when she knocked a scooter driver to the ground.

The Daily Mail reports Willoughby did not appear for the short Lavender Hill Magistrates Court hearing on Tuesday morning, but pleaded guilty to driving without due care and attention via post.

According to the publication, the court was shown footage of the TV star turning right into a side street without indicating, while the reider attempted to overtake her.

The rider, on a white Piaggio scooter, was knocked to the ground in the collision.

According to sentencing guidelines, she could face up to nine penalty points, a fine and in the most severe cases a driving ban, though her sentence is yet to be confirmed.

The former ITV presenter is said to be preparing for a TV comeback after keeping a low profile for months.

Representatives for Holly Willoughby have been contacted for comment.
