Dame Carolyn McCall has argued an "imbalance of power" between Phillip Schofield and a young runner made their brief affair "deeply appropriate".
The chief executive is facing questions about the broadcaster’s approach to safeguarding and complaint-handling after Phillip Schofield left as host of This Morning before subsequently parted ways with ITV and his talent agency YMU.
Carolyn was asked why she and Holy Willoughby were 'the only people' at the station not to hear about Phillip Schofield's affair at a parliamentary hearing on Wednesday.
