Holly Willoughby has sold her family home after the horrifying kidnap, rape and murder plot against her.

Last year security guard Gavin Plumb was unanimously convicted of soliciting murder and encouraging or assisting others to rape and kidnap Holly following a trial at Chelmsford Crown Court.
The 38-year-old from Harlow, in Essex, was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 16 years.
Holly and her TV executive husband Dan Baldwin, 51, had moved their children out of the South West London home as a result of the plot.
It also led to Holly quitting This Morning after more than a decade.
Now, the Edwardian property has been sold, with records confirming it changed ownership in 2024.

A source told The Sun: 'This will draw a line under a deeply uncomfortable period of Holly's life, and ensure they can make a fresh start in their new family home.
'Though it's bittersweet too as it's where Holly and Dan raised their children too, so it has many happy memories for the couple as well.'
Daily Mail has contacted representatives for Holly.

Plumb's trial heard his kidnap plans involved attempting to 'ambush' Holly at her home - and he discussed taking time off work in order to organise the attack.
He then planned to take the TV presenter to an isolated stud farm for sexual torture, kill her and dump her body in a lake.
Last October he lost a challenge against his sentence at the Court of Appeal.
Meanwhile, last month Holly was said to be in a planning row after launching a legal appeal over her £8million home, despite already having a gym and cinema approved.

The pair are looking to add to the 'heritage' property, as they reportedly want to add a 'link infill extension' between their house and an outbuilding on the land.
The couple have already completed several works at the six-bedroom house, along with adding extra security.
And they have also had plans approved to install a gym, cinema and a ground floor link to the property.

But their latest planning request is said to have been branded 'overly dominant' and 'inappropriate' - with the couple since launching an appeal.
Holly and Dan have lodged the appeal to try and get the works approved, claiming the extension would get the most out of the land.
