ITV has responded to Eamonn Holmes’ claims that Phillip Schofield was "sacked" from This Morning. The presenter, 61, announced that he'd quit the flagship show with immediate effect last weekend.
Eamonn slammed Phillip’s exit statement as “nonsense”. He said on GB News: “Let’s just stop this. He was sacked. All this nonsense about giving him ‘I’ve decided to step down.’ I’m sure you did, I’m sure you did. Here’s your P45, now step down.”
But the broadcaster responded to Eamonn's comments with a statement saying: "Phillip Schofield’s decision to step down from This Morning was (as his statement made clear) a decision agreed between Phillip and ITV."
