Releasing that tonight he has thrown Holly under a bus, he knows precisely what he is doing
Starting to take people down, one by one
I just hope people speak up, loud & clear
Eamon and Ruth should be saluted

It's time for Holly to go now.

She can't pick and choose the heat she can stand. She knew. Crikey, most of us knew when Rylan was sacked, Ruth and Eamonn got school holidays only and Amanda Holden was blatantly saying the truth will out.

Holly - fuck off as well.

Why didn't any of the people who knew shout louder about this?

Because maybe they would lose their job?

SingleMumStruggling · 26/05/2023 21:02

Will he be overly bothered about all of this this in a couple of years? He's made his money, he'll just slither off somewhere to enjoy it in peace.

The entire team at This Morning need to be removed for covering this up.

Especially Holly and Martin Frizzell.

His "brave" coming out was anything but... and likely to be forced due to a potential outing by the media.

It's amazing it was covered up for so long

I'm so wishing that was a slow hand clap from Ruth (I bet she wanted to!)

This was almost as bad as Prince Andrew and Emily Maitis.

It makes me really angry how they patronise their public, spoon feeding them shit and taking them all for idiots. Bloody sociopaths.

He can't really deny it. There are countless pictures already online of them together along with social media posts and witness accounts.

I don't think it was a real affair as it seems they had an open marriage but if he denied the relationship was happening, I can see why ITV and Holly are fuming. Again, though, given the clear evidence one can find with a very basic google search, ITV, Holly or his family could quickly have presented that evidence to him.

ITV and HW cant be fuming about this as they have known before. If it was truly infuriating he would have been gone before now. I think with his brother in prison they are afraid questions will resurface and they are all protecting their careers, images, cash cows...

Letsallthinkofaname · 26/05/2023 21:09

Seems Ruth and Eamonn got sacked because they reported Schofes behaviour. So people were speaking up, and still are.

TrustPenguins · 26/05/2023 21:11

What a vile man.
There is more to come I'm sure.

HotAndStuffy · 26/05/2023 21:13

Yuk. The way he tacked on an apology to his poor wife too Angry

Freefall212 · 26/05/2023 21:14

I do think there is more going on and I think Simon Schofield is involved as well.
These 3 pictures are part of the story.

Philip and Simon met back when they both did theatre productions, when Simon was 12 and Philip was 34; When asked in 2020, Philip said that he and Simon had been best of friends for 20 years. 20 years pre 2020 would have been when Simon as 16 and Phil was 38. There have been a multitude of pictures of them together over the yeas and they have remained close friends. Simon and the show runner also spent a lot of time together and there are many pictures of the three of them together. When Philip came out, many assumed Simon was his boyfriend given all the picture of them together and the close relationship. Philip denied tis and insisted they were only close friends. Simon got engaged to his girlfriend in 2019 but she seems to have been scrubbed from his social media so who knows.

While I have no idea of SImon's sexual orientation, his IG profile would not be atypical for someone who is gay. https://www.instagram.com/sischofe/

I have absolutely no time for people (in my personal life and anyone in general) that are deceptive and take advantage of people, particularly those that are vulnerable.
Vile bastard he is.
I reckon this is a massive cover up and he has almost certainly sought alot of legal advice. Twat.

Freefall212 · 26/05/2023 21:15

Oh forgot the link. These are the 3 pictures I referenced above.

LetterForLettis · 26/05/2023 21:16

eww Envy

EsmaCannonball · 26/05/2023 21:18

I wonder if the last straw for Eamonn and Ruth (not a particular fan of his, but) was being forced to present that charade where the runner scandal was buried under Schofield's cynically timed coming out? He managed to twist things so people faced looking homophobic and cruel if they didn't play along.

DustyLee123 · 26/05/2023 21:19

He lied from the very beginning when he dyed his hair.

Boardname · 26/05/2023 21:19

If millions of people knew even though he hadn't confirmed it until today, of course Holly knew.

There are persistent rumours about two national 'treasures' one straight and one gay in their dotage that never seem to go away, but the press never crosses that line that Schofield seems to have crossed.

Who?

EwwSprouts · 26/05/2023 21:19

Have I got news for you is covering his resignation but it's prerecorded. Pity they would have been brilliant I suspect.

Princessbananahamock · 26/05/2023 21:20

I think he also murdered Gordon the gofer. That Gofor set him up for life and made him into a star, and Schofield buried the evidence . JUSTICE FOR GORDON.
Schofield should be forced into saying where Gordon is buried. Schofield would be a nobody without him!!!!

Have I Got News for You? Is that the programme that featured Jimmy Savile, Jonathan King, Max Clifford and Clement Freud? Ian Hislop just can't catch a break!
