Holly Willoughby has reportedly decided to sell the black Mini Cooper she was driving when she broke the neck of a scooter rider earlier this year.
The former This morning Star, 44, was involved in the incident on August 28, 2025 and pleaded guilty to driving without due care and attention.
The man also suffered a broken toe in the collision, Lavender Hill Magistrates’ Court heard on Tuesday.
Holly was given six penalty points and fined £2,444, including court costs, payable within 14 days.
Sources said The sun that Holly hired a dealer to help her get rid of the car, saying ‘the sooner she can get it off her drive and gone for good, the better’.
“Holly was absolutely devastated that she has caused this accident. It has really shaken her, they said.
“Holly wants a fresh start and doesn’t feel right driving the car again after what happened. ‘Now she just wants to move on and get rid of the Mini.’
However, Holly did not attend the hearing on Tuesday morning. Meanwhile, Metropolitan Police prosecutors sought to have the incident treated as a Category 1A offence, the most serious offence.
After arguments from the star’s defense, the judges decided that the incident fell under category 1B and a serious offence.
