Phillip Schofield made his debut on This Morning in 2002, and he has been the staple face of ITV's schedule ever since.
The father-of-two fronted the show with Fern Britton before helping Holly Willoughby secure a spot to pave the way for the duo to become a well-known and popular partnership, and at the time he was known as the king of daytime TV.
Now, his career is said to be in ruins after admitting to an affair with a younger colleague on This Morning, which he described as not 'illegal, but unwise' soon after he resigned from ITV at the weekend, reports the Mirror.
