The editor of This Morning says members of staff are now 'concerned for their jobs' as he calls for 'respite' from the Phillip Schofield saga. The ITV show has come under fire in recent weeks since details of an affair involving the ex-presenter and a younger colleague came to light.
Phillip quit This Morning two weeks ago amid rumours of a feud with co-presenter Holly Willoughby, before the 61-year-old left ITV entirely after admitting lying about the affair. Speaking to Sky News today, This Morning editor Martin Frizell spoke of the toll the saga was having on his workforce.
And he urged people to 'read between the lines' as other people previously associated with the show wade in on the issue, suggesting there may be 'scores to settle' from some. Martin said: "All I just want to say is I'm working with a fantastic team of mainly women, many mums, a lot of them concerned for their jobs - although we've told them not to be.
