A former presenter of ITV's This Morning has said that Philip Schofield has "finally been caught out" but that he "is not the only guilty party" over what happened. In a lengthy statement, Phil admitted that he was involved in an affair with a younger male employee at ITV, before announcing he was quitting the network for good.
In the apology, he stated: "I did have a consensual on-off relationship with a younger male colleague at This Morning. Contrary to speculation, whilst I met the man when he was a teenager and was asked to help him to get into television, it was only after he started to work on the show that it became more than just a friendship.
"That relationship was unwise, but not illegal. It is now over". Former colleagues of the presenter have broken their silence on the matter, including Eamonn Holmes who previously hosted the morning talk show with his wife Ruth Langsford, reports The Daily Record.
