Piers Morgan says Phillip Schofield was entitled to a better This Morning send-off from 'ruthless' ITV and says he has 'sympathy' with for the presenter.
The 61-year-old announced over the weekend that he was stepping down from presenting the ITV show with “immediate effect” after more than 20 years on the programme.
His departure came amid reports of a rift between Schofield and co-presenter Holly Willoughby and after his brother, Timothy Schofield, was sentenced to 12 years in jail after being convicted of child sex offences.
