What happens next for Philip Schofield, ITV and This Morning?

Phillip Schofield continues to make headlines after stepping down from his ITV hosting duties - including This Morning - and confirming he had an affair with a younger colleague. Prior to leaving the show on May 20, following 20 years of presenting it, the 61-year-old faced a string of controversies.

It had been vastly reported that there was a feud going on between him and his long-time co-host Holly Willoughby. Meanwhile, his brother, Timothy Schofield had been put on trial for sex abuse and just September last year, he was criticised by many over his visit to the late Queen’s lying in state.

After handing in his resignation, Schofield revealed that an “unwise but not illegal” affair began while he was still with his wife. He then went on to confirm he will not be presenting this year's British Soap Awards - his last public commitment.
