Bradley Walsh fans thank Holly Willoughby for best gift ever

Get your follow finger ready!

Bradley Walsh just posted another hilarious video to Instagram – and fans have never been more grateful that Holly Willoughby forced him to sign up.

It’s only Bradley’s sixth post on the social media site, after his fellow presenter set up an account for him during the National Television Awards on Tuesday.

In the new video, the 57-year-old The Chase presenter – who is on the website under @bradderswalsh – dances for the camera in his car.

He then says: “Here I am on my way to work, listening to Stormzy. Keep it real Stormzy, you the man!”

In the caption, Bradley – who has already gained 250,000 followers – tagged the musician, writing: “@stormzyofficial when’s the collab ?! It’s about to get #merky”.

Holly, 36, added to the 2.5k comments, calling him the best thing on Instagram.

And fans piled in to thank her for forcing him to join, writing: “Yes! Well done @hollywilloughby. Bradley is what was missing from Instagram.”

Another added: “He’s already one of my favourite Instagrammers @hollywilloughby.” While a third commented: “@hollywilloughby What a breath of fresh air.”

Even Holly herself told Bradley he was becoming her favourite part of Instagram!

Everyone has loved his pictures so far, which included a hungover selfie the day after the NTAs.

Bradley wrote: “Oh dear… woke up this morning with a headache and an Instagram account. @hollywilloughby bad girl!!!”

Delighted fans welcomed the newcomer, writing: “Welcome to Instagram! I have a feeling your account is going to be brilliant!!”

Another wrote: “Every time I see your face it makes me smile”. A third added: “His Insta account is the best thing to happen ever.”

Bradley’s second picture showed that good genes run in the Walsh family, as he posed on the red carpet with his son, Barney. Followers wrote: “Chip off the old block”, and: “What a handsome lad, just like his dad.”

And proving he’s still a novice, Bradley also posted two of the same selfie while eating porridge. Oops!

He wrote under the first version: “Morning gang ! Thanks for all your welcome messages ! Well, it’s a new day and having seen some photos of me at the NTAs I’ve decided I might shed a few pounds instead of actually looking like a shed!

“So I’m starting the day with a black coffee and porridge made the Scottish way with salt and some honey also cos of yesterday’s hangover I’m having a few days off ! I know a lot of people do dry January, well mine was very, very wet !

“Although I’m not sure whether that was the drink or my age. Catch you later loves . Brad x”.

If his first few days are any indication, this celeb account is set to be our runaway favourite.
