British television host Holly Willoughby shared the glamorous highlights of her weekend trip to the Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday, June 7, 2026.
While she filled her social media updates with sun-drenched paddock photos, she also joked about an awkward moment on the grid when she and comedian Michael McIntyre found themselves caught in Kim Kardashian’s enormous entourage.
The star-studded racing weekend in Monte Carlo drew massive global celebrities, but none commanded a presence quite like Kim and her sister Khloé Kardashian.
The reality stars attended the event to support Kim's boyfriend, Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton.
As the sisters moved through the famously narrow and cramped start-finish straight before the race, their security team and staff created a chaotic wave that swept up several unsuspecting British stars.
Holly and Michael McIntyre were soaking up the pre-race hospitality and chatting on the grid when the Kardashian convoy moved through.
Video footage from the paddock shows Kim and Khloé surrounded by a wall of security guards holding large umbrellas and pushing through the dense crowd.
In the shuffle, security personnel brushed Holly and Michael aside to clear a path for the American reality royalty.
Rather than showing frustration, Holly and Michael appeared highly amused by the sheer scale of the operation.
Holly later joked about the incident online, giving a lighthearted seven-word response to the brief social media frenzy by noting that she simply got "swept away by the Kardashian wave."
