Just seen on Instagram that PS is stepping down with immediate effect from This morning!
I mean, I'm not that bothered but there's been lots of speculation recently re his brother's conviction and the rumoured spat with Holly but I thought it would probably all blow over.
I'm sure he's got a bob or two is loaded but I'm still a bit surprised if I'm honest.

The 'public' message is that she only found out in 2020, or rather, in the months leading up to his announcement in Feb of that year. We can choose to believe that or laugh at it, secure in the 'knowledge' that it's been an open secret for years. But regardless of whether or not she knew all along, it's the fact that she's being so supportive that puzzles me. She could continue her 'lovely' life just by keeping her head down, but she's doing more than just going along with it. Family hols to Paris, partnering him for events even after he came out. In fact, she wouldn't even have to go along with it at all - she would be able to get an enormous divorce settlement, enough to finance a lovely enough life.

I wonder what his children think of it all?

I wonder what this children think too

How can PS a wife enjoy knowing he is spending most his free time with younger guys.
She's beeb happy single for the last 20 odd years then.

I always remember thinking she looked older than him and more like a mother figure.

"Phillip Schofield’s ex-lover now works in a ‘remote’ pub as TV career in ruins
‘Big downfall’ for former This Morning runner as dreams of becoming a famous small-screen star are in tatters"

Poor guy
I hope he takes ITV to the cleaners

Anyone who worked in underwriting can tell you the risk working in a pub is.

For what, though?

For chewing him up and spitting him out?? Crikey, such a lack of empathy from some people on this thread. How would you feel if he were your son? Your apologist posts in support of abusive sex pests have permeated this thread.

This runner guy came from a theatre group for deprived children. It is not ok for any television company to let the lead anchors abuse others to keep money rolling in for them.

Nothing has been learned from Jimmy Savile.

Aquarius1234 · 31/05/2023 20:08

He got the Runner job through Philip Schofield being creepy.

Aquarius1234 · 31/05/2023 20:09

You sometimes notice those people dressed up in a background or modelling, but you don't ever think they are only there cos some older pervert fancies them!

Actually, I was just thinking he was treating her in the same way he treats his mother. The two women he relies on for support. He's apparently consulted both of them as to how to deal with this recent development.

You have Love Island? How can you have LI? Eastenders shouldn't be categorised with a lot of the junk television we get these days. I haven't watched it in years but when it started in 1985 or 86, it was a soap of reasonable quality. Not high art but good light entertainment. Yes, there's a lot we're not being told about the PS stuff.

Twonewcats · 01/06/2023 20:27

Ive read today that his wife is apparently furious that they were having a relationship and he was lying to her too, and his daughter only found out about the affair immediately before PS admitted it last week. 😳

Hmm 😒
Not sure if I believe that

TheTERFnextDoor · 01/06/2023 20:39

I'm pretty sure PS's wife checked out if the relationship years ago...

Really? He’s 61yo. She looks like a woman in her late 50s. I think we’re just not used to seeing celebs with age appropriate women. Just because she’s not a stick thin woman in her 30s does not mean she looks old enough to be his mum. She does not look like she’s in her 80s!

OrbandSpectacle · 01/06/2023 21:09

She looks like an ordinary, mumsy, middle class middle aged woman, not the showbiz type at all, although apparently they met through showbiz.

A very good woman to have in the background.

I think she was at the NTAs when MM allegedly declared his love for Philip in front of everyone.
