Holly Willoughby the latest celeb Mum to opt for the Skate
With so many celebrity mothers, companies are on the look-out not just for what they wear, but what baby products they use. So when Holly Willoughby (the new presenter on ITV’s This Morning) was out with her son, Harry, in the Skate pushchair (£595), the company that makes it immediately took notice. Mamas & Papas, which sells the Skate, says that Gwen Stefani and Minnie Driver have been spotted using the same type. (Photograph courtesy Rex Images.)
