The boss of ITV has hit back at accusations that the 'vast majority knew' about Phillip Schofield's affair. The presenter stepped back as host of This Morning after rumours of a 'feud' between him and co-host Holly Willoughby behind the scenes hit the headlines.
Schofield, 61, then later stepped back from ITV altogether after he admitted to lying to Holly, his employers, and others about an "unwise but not illegal" affair with a younger male colleague., confessing that he concealed the truth about the romance.
On Wednesday (June 14), the chief executive of ITV Dame Carolyn McCall appeared before a parliamentary committee to answer questions about the broadcaster’s approach to safeguarding and complaint handling after Schofield left as host of This Morning.
