This Morning viewers appeared distracted from the latest edition of the show as they focused on claims made by an MP during a grilling of ITV bosses. Dame Carolyn McCall faced questions from MPs on Wednesday (June 14) about Phillip Schofield's shock exit from the network.
The chief executive of ITV faced questioning about the broadcaster’s approach to safeguarding and complaint handling alongside ITV managing director Kevin Lygo and general counsel and company secretary Kyla Mullins during the Culture, Media and Sport Committee session in Parliament.
The meeting saw Dame Carolyn start by telling MPs the "imbalance of power, the imbalance of dynamics" made the relationship between Schofield and 'person X' "deeply inappropriate", and ITV would have taken action, but no evidence of the relationship appeared during ongoing reviews.
