If the affair was consensual, then it's not a big deal IMO. ITV are full of shit to be so self righteous since they still have Jeremy Clarkson working for them, who they hired after he assaulted a BBC producer. I recall hearing they were intending on stripping back content with him after he published his Harry and Meghan hit piece, but are presently obligated to complete work on Millionaire , at least Amazon cancelled his farming show. When did they cancel if? There were rumours after his Meghan Markle dickheadery but as far as I know, they never cancelled it. |

All I see is that it says “likely to part ways” yet I don’t think it’s ever actually been confirmed that it is or isn’t happening. And yes, there was a thread as I remember discussing it a few months back. Amazon have (as far as I know) never commented on his status with them and I would have thought given the shitstorm at the time, if they were going to do it they would have confirmed it very quickly and publicly. As long as they leave James May alone, I’m fine with whatever the outcome. |

You’d wonder if he’s the only one to leave ITV, as if you believe what is on twitter it was a “open secret” within ITV. So holly Willoughby and others seemingly knew about this and seemingly did nothing.

To be fair, it's hardly Jimmy Savile levels of depravity. Still not a good look though.

I actually went and watched the opening to the show today which is a first. And the word of the day is “happy” and by saying it repeatedly it’ll make it real.

The stories about him having an affair have been around for years. The questions are: did he lie about it (he did)? Did he have a relationship with the man whilst he was underage? The rumour mill has for years been was he befriended the person whilst they were underage and got them the job on This Morning. If that's true, BIG IF, that's straight up grooming. I remember reading about this when Schofield came out and the accusation was that he was using that as a smokescreen to cover the affair. Given what we've learnt about his brother, who knows what the truth is, only Schofield and the person he had the affair with know. But yeah his career is cooked.

I feel bad for his ex wife more than anything. Not only did she have to contend with him coming out in the most public way possible, but now this.
Maybe she knew all along and it was a marriage of convenience, but having this news go public has got to hurt her some more.

It's hugely gross and the end of his TV career for sure. Whether anything criminal happened, I doubt we'll ever know. The other person in this has shown no inkling to want to blow his own life up by taking this public.

Iv never liked him even when he was with Gordon the Gopher who i loved,but for Phillip i hated him then and more so now, he is just a nasty piece of work and i can imagine he has a lot more skeletons in his closet ready to come out.

Unfortunately the tabloid press will eventually out the poor guy whether he wants it or not as they've shown there are no depths they are unwilling to plumb when it comes to celebrity gossip. If it was as much of an open secret as chancers like Wootton and Holmes claim, they're likely rifling through his bins now or sat in parked cars outside of his mums house. |

His name has been out there on social media for years, and a lot of the images in the papers over the past few days show him with his face blurred out. Everyone knows who he is, I guess he's not being named in the press as it's not entirely clear that he hasn't been the victim of child grooming. I would guess the tabloids are currently also playing nice with him while hoping he'll sell his story to them. |

Disclaimer : The following opinion is not condoning any of Schofield’s behaviour and allegations against him in any way. In fact, it’s not actually connected in any way to his speaking out against Schofield. But…..
Eamonn Holmes. What a c***.

Yeah, this would be a day's worth of news and he'd apologise and be back on TV within 6 months were he having affairs with younger women, hell the tabloids would be praising him for being a ladies man. Also certain colleagues of his who are making vague accusations on certain unpleasant news outlets, who never had any issue when they worked together and never said a word when this was happening, can go eff themselves. If you know things, say them out loud, if you have proof you will have no worries about libel cases. I've made no secret of my dislike of Schofield on here over the years, but I dislike the double standards and what people are implying. No way. Even DiCaprio gets tabloid critism for dating women in their 20s. A married 60 year old guy talks to an underage teenage girl, gets her a job, gives her special mentoring and then has sex with her and you think the media would praise him? It's grooming no matter the sexualities of those involved and I'm shocked it's being reported so charitably. No wonder Holly has been so pissed off, she very publicly supported him and it turns out he was doing this behind her back. I've never seen much criticism for DiCaprio when he's dating younger models. Usually it's just a newspaper clipping of them on a boat or something and a headline with an overbearing tone of "LOL NICE HE'S STILL GOT IT". |

If he's being dropped by charities and ITV are going to be questioned by a parliamentary committee, there could very well be more to this story than is being made public at this time.
