Phillip Schofield has broken his silence on his shocking affair with an ex ITV colleague who he met when the young man was just 15.
The former This Morning presenter has been under intense media scrutiny since he came clean about his anonymous ex-lover last week, who he formed an "unwise but not illegal" sexual relationship with when the man was 20.
In the emotional interviews with BBC's Amol Rajan as well as the Sun, Schofield said he has "lost everything" but felt he had no choice but to be honest as the "the lie got too big for both of us".
