Emma Willis found another use for her holiday dress amid Britain’s ongoing lockdown as she wore it to scrub her toilet.

Like the rest of the country, the TV presenter’s summer plans have grounded to a halt due to the coronavirus crisis.

Taking to Instagram, Emma, 44, laughed as she donned a pair of purple gloves to scrub her toilet in the grey patterned dress which featured a v-neckline and a leg slit.

The Voice UK presenter also shared a photo of herself wearing the same outfit in the far more glamorous setting of a balcony with her hair and makeup done.  

‘Alongside the post, which was an ad, Emma wrote: ‘Never let a great dress go down the pan!! 

‘So this would have been getting packed right up in my summer suitcase but instead…✈️ #CostaDelBog #emmawilliscollection @nextofficial’.

It comes after Emma revealed the ‘stresses’ and ‘frustrations’ she faced over ‘not being good enough’ at homeschooling her three children.

The TV star told MailOnline she and husband Matt, 37, put ‘a lot of pressure’ on themselves when they first attempted to give their children Isabelle, ten, Ace, eight, and Trixie, four, lessons away from the classroom.

She said: ‘For me in the beginning we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be perfect schoolteachers and make them have the absolute school day that they would have but at home. 

‘I didn’t want my stress at having to be a schoolteacher and not being good enough having a knock on effect to them and them getting stressed because they know I’m getting stressed, or them getting worried because they know I’m getting wound up. 

‘After a couple of weeks you realise, you know what I am not a schoolteacher, they aren’t at school and we have to do what we can do. I have never loved teachers more in my whole life.

‘I mean when I can see my kids teachers again I think I will literally rugby tackle them to the ground in a purely loving way because I have never been so happy to see them.’

Emma, who’s also the host of Channel 4 reality show The Circle, said there have been moments during lockdown where she’s felt ‘scared’ and ‘down’ but focusing on the health of her family helped to banish her uncertainties.

She explained: ‘I think it was a shock to the system in the beginning.

‘Life isn’t the same anymore but with every day I felt a bit down or a bit rubbish or a bit unsure and scared, I just tried to gain perspective on the situation that was happening and think outside of my house and the bubble that I was in.

‘I remembered what was going on out there and the people on the front line.

‘It brings you back to your reality and I need to count myself very happy that I’m healthy, my family are touch wood at this point all doing OK and just remember what’s going on out there.’
