Phillip Schofield's 'gift to ex-boyfriend was key to undoing' amid ITV exit

Phillip Schofield sensationally parted ways with This Moring after two decades after he admitted lying to ITV bosses and colleagues about an affair with a 'younger male colleague'.

The former ITV star parted ways with This Morning after reports speculated over a feud between himself and Holly Willoughby, who claims she was also lied to. Phillip, 62, has now come clean about the affair he had with a younger colleague on This Morning.

The Mirror reports that a move Phillip initially made to help his ex has come back to bite him following the recent media scrutiny surrounding the relationship. Phil reportedly hired top law firm Mishcon de Reya to represent his former partner, who is now in his mid-20s.
