Fallout Phillip Schofield cover threatens engulf ITV brass
Eamonn Holmes has blasted ITV as he accuses the company of covering up Phillip Schofield’s affair – as channel staff are left bewildered by the bombshell confession.
Last night staff at the network were left stunned at Schofield’s revelation – as well as suspicious of their bosses, questioning just if and what they knew about one of their biggest stars and his much younger male friend.
ITV’s press office slammed their former star presenter’s ‘admissions of deceit’ – essentially throwing the man who was once the biggest star under the bus. The channel confirmed that they had accepted his resignation and that he would not be hosting the British Soap Awards.
But at the helm of the channel is a group of executives it would be hard to believe were not aware of the allegations.

Schofield admitted the affair, which he claimed was ‘unwise but not illegal’, in a lengthy statement released on Friday, in which he also apologised to his wife and family.
Holmes – who previously presented the show alongside wife Ruth Langsford – continued to make a string of allegations suggesting station bosses knew of claims against Schofield and ‘never once took action’.
The 63-year-old broadcaster – who formerly presented on This Morning alongside Schofield, 61 – sensationally claimed bosses knew ‘what kind of man’ the star was and did not take action. He said: ‘Schofield has finally been caught out, but he’s not the only guilty party.’
In a later tweet, the former This Morning presenter claimed he and his wife Ruth Langsford had been ‘deceived’ about the allegations and promised that: ‘One day I will tell the story.’
He said the couple had been ‘taken for fools’.
An ITV spokesman said: ‘We are deeply disappointed by the admissions of deceit made tonight by Phillip Schofield.

‘The relationships we have with those we work with are based on trust. Philip made assurances to us which he now acknowledges were untrue and we feel badly let down. ‘We accept his resignation from ITV and therefore can confirm that he will not be appearing on ITV as had previously been stated.’
This has been echoed by MailOnline columnist and GB News host Dan Wootton, who said the broadcaster now faces ‘huge questions’.
He continued to claim that there had been ‘widespread outrage that management allowed this to go on for so long’.
Wootton said one of the station’s biggest stars contacted him to allege a ‘cover-up’ had taken place.
In a second tweet, he went on to slam the broadcasters as ‘woke’.
He went on to urge all senior executives at the company to step down – saying that it was the reason he left ITV in 2019.
The claim has since been re-tweeted by ex-Loose Women host Carol McGiffin.
It comes after she hit out at Schofield for being ‘so b****y rude’ last week.
Broadcaster and columnist Piers Morgan simply reshared the initial article from The Mail with a short phrase to convey his shock: ‘Blimey…’
And occasional This Morning presenter Carol Voderman said on the BBC’s Have I Got News For You on Friday night that her money is on Alison Hammond to replace Schofield.
Asked by co-host Ian Hislop if the presenters will be ‘Holly n Carol’, she replied: ‘No. Probably Holly and Alison, I would have thought. That’s where I’d put my money.’
Host for the evening Steph McGovern agreed, adding: ‘I suppose it’s always going to be really difficult, isn’t it, when there’s a bit of rift between a much loved TV duo.’
Questions have been asked about whether the executives at the top of ITV knew about the relationship.
An insider told The Sun: ‘This goes right to the top. Very senior heads could roll. If there’s any suggestions of a cover-up they could be culpable.
‘It’s also possible that This Morning could end up getting the axe.’
Chief Executive Carolyn McCall and her PR sidekick Paul Moore who she brought with her from Easyjet in 2018 were running the organisation at the time, along with Director of Television Kevin Lygo.
Both Ms McCall and Lygo are understood to have been allies of Schofield and extremely supportive of him.
Also around at the time as ITV’s head of daytime Emma Gormley. She was, and still is, the overseer of the channel’s 6am until 6pm programmes, which include Good Morning Britain, Lorraine and of course, This Morning. Then there is the show’s editor Martin Frizell, who was for so many years very close to Schofield and for many years was the one who ‘cleared up his presenter’s mess.’
There have, of course, been many rumours about Schofield and his much younger colleague swirling around the television industry for a little over three years. It is thought to have all started in January 2020.
Phillip Schofield admitted on Friday to having a relationship with a much younger man who worked with him on This Morning, and later lying about it.
In a bombshell statement to the Daily Mail, the veteran TV presenter admitted that he and the man began a relationship that was more than a friendship.
The ex-TV presenter describes this as ‘unwise but not illegal’.
Schofield further confessed that he lied to his employer ITV, to his colleagues, his friends and his agents at the management firm YMU.
He also lied to The Mail on Sunday, the Daily Mail’s sister paper, which first exclusively described his relationship with the younger man earlier this month.
Schofield’s extraordinary statement concludes weeks of increasingly fevered speculation in both the TV industry and the wider country about the future of his career, following his sudden departure from the This Morning sofa earlier this month.
He is now expected to step back from public life, with a source close to the presenter admitting to The Sun: ‘There’s no coming back from this.’
‘Those who have defended him are horrified to find out it is all true – he’s been misleading ITV and even his own team for years.’
Last week Holmes tore into Phillip Schofield for claiming he was leaving of his own accord after 20 years, declaring: ‘He was sacked’, as the crisis-hit show kicked off with a short tribute to the star.
Reacting to newspaper headlines saying Schofield had stepped down, the GB News breakfast show raged: ‘Oh please just stop this. He was sacked. All this nonsense of “I’ve decided to step down”. I’m sure you did – here’s your P45 now step down’.
He also suggested Holly Willoughby was being duplicitous when she claimed to be sad that Mr Schofield was leaving the hit ITV show after two decades at the helm, adding: ‘They deserve each other’.
Holmes then went on to mimic Holly and said: ‘And she says: ‘Oh, the couch will not be the same without him being there’. Well she wanted him not there. So what is she moaning about. They deserve each other I suppose’.
He went on: ‘Holly is being as false as he is and nobody is talking about the elephant in the room.
‘She says ‘”I thank him for all his knowledge, experience and humour”. All the things that she didn’t have when she came to the show.
‘Well it’s true! I would call that stabbing in the back. ‘I could give you a list of the lack of kindness and lack of awareness from both of them. How they would socialise, and the people around them.
‘You just have to look at my phone, full of people who are glad to see the back of the two of them’.
Schofield’s exit from ITV apparently scotches plans for the ‘prime time’ show he was allegedly offered by the network as consolation for leaving This Morning after more than 20 years on the show.
He had been due to present the prestigious British Soap Awards next week – a role he had performed since 2006. His statement confirms he will no longer do so. In his groveling apology, Schofield said: ‘I am making this statement via the Daily Mail, to whom I have already apologised personally for misleading, through my lawyer who I also misled, about a story [sic] which they wanted to write about me a few days ago. ‘The first thing I want to say is: I am deeply sorry for having lied to them, and to many others about a relationship that I had with someone working on This Morning.
‘I did have a consensual on-off relationship with a younger male colleague at This Morning.
‘Contrary to speculation, whilst I met the man when he was a teenager and was asked to help him to get into television, it was only after he started to work on the show that it became more than a just a friendship.
‘That relationship was unwise, but not illegal. It is now over…
‘I am painfully conscious that I have lied to my employers at ITV, to my colleagues and friends, to my agents, to the media and therefore the public and most importantly of all to my family.
‘I am so very, very sorry, as I am for having been unfaithful to my wife…
‘I am resigning from ITV with immediate effect, expressing my immense gratitude to them for all the amazing opportunities that they have given me.
‘I will reflect on my very bad judgement in both participating in the relationship and then lying about it.’
The Mail is aware of the younger man’s identity, but has chosen not to name him.
Talent agency YMU, who represent entertainers, athletes and musicians, dropped the former This Morning presenter after 35 years following the bombshell revelation.
In a statement, Mary Bekhait, the Group CEO of YMU Group, said: ‘Honesty and integrity are core values for YMU’s whole business, defining everything we do.
‘Talent management is a relationship based entirely on trust.
‘This week, we have learned important new information about our client Phillip Schofield.
‘These facts contradicted what Phillip had previously told YMU, as well as the external advisors we had brought in to support him.
‘As a result, on Thursday we agreed to part company with Phillip, with immediate effect.’

Cambodian civilians Seek peace as Thai invading forces attack
PHNOM PENH, Cambodia, July 28, 2025 (SBM News) – The invasion of Cambodian territory by Thailand’s military forces along the border areas has entered its fifth day. Over 130,000 Cambodian civilians have been displaced from their homes, and 600 schools have been closed.
The invasion of Cambodian territory was initiated by Lieutenant General Boonsin Padklang, Commander of the 2nd Army Area, who instigated a confrontation at Ta Muen Thom Temple. This occurred after he ordered Thai troops to lay barbed wire to encircle and seize the temple. Cambodian military forces intervened to halt the outbreak of armed conflict but Thai aggressor forces launched the first attack.
Armed conflict have spread over several days from the Ta Muen Thom area to Ta Muen Toch, Ta Krabei, Mom Bei, Phnom Khmoch, and Phnom Trob etc., in Oddar Meanchey and Preah Vihear provinces. However, the Thai military forces did not halt their invasive ambitions toward Cambodian territory; they continued their incursion into other areas of Cambodia, advancing further to Thmor Da Area of Pursat province.
Through heavy artillery attacks and airstrikes targeting Cambodian troops and innocent civilians, they used heavy weapons including bomb-dropping drones, F-16 fighter jets, Gripen JAS 39 fighter aircraft, cluster munitions, and chemical weapons. This resulted in deaths and injuries among Cambodian military forces and innocent civilians, while over 130,000 civilians fled to safe locations.
Tragedy caused by Thailand’s invasion has made Cambodian the elderly, children, pregnant women, and the disabled lose their homes, education, and food shortages. These are war crimes committed by Thailand against Cambodia, while Thailand presents itself as the victim to the world. Cambodian citizens need peace. This is a message to people worldwide and the global community: please look at Thailand’s military aggression against Cambodia and help rescue Cambodia from the Thai invasion.

Chilling moment intruder inspects naked woman with his torch as she slept next to her partner in Marbella home as brave victim who released video
Chilling moment intruder inspects naked woman with his torch as she slept next to her partner in Marbella home as brave victim who released video describes ‘recurring nightmares’
This is the chilling moment a home intruder repeatedly inspected a woman as she slept naked in her Costa del Sol home.
Homeowners Pilar and Alex found that they had been burgled after 300 euros went missing from their home in Marbella on June 2.
But while the couple reviewed their CCTV, they made an even more disturbing discovery after footage showed how a masked thief stood over their bed as they slept.
In the sinister clip, which was released by the couple, the burglar was seen returning multiple times to the couple’s room throughout a 32 minute period.
But the thief appeared to fixate on Pilar, with the video showing him repeatedly flashing his torch over Pilar’s body.
‘He entered our bedroom eight times to look at my private parts’, she told local media after deciding to release the footage in the hope of catching the ‘sick predator’.
Local police are now investigating the case and are analysing the security footage to identify the suspect, but no arrests have been made yet.
The thief is said to have taken 300 euros from the couple’s home, but did not steal any other valuables, leading Pilar to believe that his intentions were not to rob the couple’s home, but rather to prey on her as she slept.
Pilar’s 18-year-old son was also sleeping in the room next door at the time of the incident.
‘That man didn’t come to my house to steal, he came to do something to me’, she told local media.

‘I was alone the night before. What if he’d come then?’.
Her partner Alex expressed how Pilar ‘felt violated’ and called the thief a ‘sick predator’.
Pilar has also told of how the terrifying ordeal has affected her psychologically, and described how she now suffers from recurring nightmares and has to sleep with all of her doors and windows closed.
She is also undergoing psychological treatment to cope with the trauma she has suffered, she said.
It is believed he entered the house through a terrace door.
The horrifying incident in the Spanish city comes as residents have been warned to beef up their security systems after falling prey to a ‘terrifying’ burglar who remains at large.
Chilling footage shows the moment a man in a mask and a grey hoodie breaks into a series of villas between San Pedro de Alcantara in Marbella and Benahavis.
The brazen thief, dubbed the San Pedro Prowler, is seen picking locks with a sharp implement, which locals said he could use as ‘a weapon if he needs it to be’.
The menacing figure then calmly walks off with his hands filled with goods, including luxury handbags and jewellery.

Among the recent stolen items include €10,000 in cash and a €30,000 watch.
The robber appears to be wearing no shoes and just have socks on during his raids, seemingly to avoid alerting anyone inside the house to his presence.
Neighbourhoods he has targeted include Guadalmina, and La Quinta, in upmarket Benahavis.

Cosby Show Star’s Shocking Drowning Leaves Fans Heartbroken
The Cosby Show alum Malcolm-Jamal Warner has tragically passed away at the age of 54, the Daily Mail can confirm.
The actor died in Costa Rica on Sunday after drowning while swimming off the coast, according to local authorities who spoke with ABC News.
The Costa Rican National Police reported that Warner’s body was discovered near Cocles, a beach in the Limon province.
He was reportedly caught by a strong current, and his official cause of death has been listed as asphyxia.
Daily Mail has reached out to Warner’s representatives for comment, but they have not yet responded.

While the exact circumstances surrounding the incident remain unclear, experts note that some beaches in Costa Rica can pose serious risks depending on conditions.
Though many areas are safe for swimming, others are known for powerful currents and rip tides that demand caution.
Warner was best known for his iconic role as Theodore Huxtable, the only son of Cliff Huxtable, on the beloved NBC sitcom The Cosby Show. He appeared in all eight seasons from 1984 to 1992, earning widespread acclaim and becoming a household name.
According to WedMD, Asphyxia ‘happens when your body doesn’t get enough oxygen to keep you from passing.’
Breathing impairment, due to water inhalation, can cause the condition, which can result in unconsciousness or death.
Although it is unknown what caused him to drown, the waters in Costa Rica can be dangerous, depending on the specific beach and conditions.
While many beaches offer safe swimming, some have strong currents and rip tides that require caution.
The actor, best known for his role as Theodore Huxtable on the beloved NBC sitcom, appeared in all eight seasons from 1984 to 1992.

At the time, Warner was just a teenager, but his performance earned widespread acclaim, including a nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series at the 1986 Primetime Emmy Awards.
Warner is survived by his wife and young daughter, born in 2017.
While he occasionally shared glimpses of his family life on social media, he chose to keep their identities private, opting not to publicly reveal their names.
His character, Theo, was based on Bill Cosby’s real-life son, Ennis Cosby, and was portrayed with depth and sensitivity.
In the show, Theo is diagnosed with dyslexia after struggling academically during his freshman year at New York University—an arc that resonated with many viewers.
Beyond The Cosby Show, Warner carved out a successful and diverse career in both comedy and drama.
He starred as Malcolm McGee in the UPN sitcom Malcolm & Eddie (1996–2000) opposite Eddie Griffin, and later headlined BET’s Reed Between the Lines from 2011 to 2015 as Dr. Alex Reed.
His television credits also included recurring roles and guest appearances on shows like Sons of Anarchy, Jeremiah, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, and Community. Warner also voiced the Producer character on the educational children’s series The Magic School Bus.
Prior to his breakout role, Warner, who was born in New Jersey, he attended a performing arts school in New York City.
Cosby personally selected Warner to play his son.
In 2023, Warner insisted he and the rest of the cast of The Cosby Show ‘still very proud of’ their hit series.
‘We share a unique experience that keeps us lovingly bonded no matter how much time goes between seeing or hearing from each other,’ he told People.
‘Regardless of how some people may feel about the show now, I’m still proud of the legacy and having been a part of such an iconic show that had such a profound impact on — first and foremost, Black culture — but also American culture,’ Warner explained, nodding to the rape, sexual assault and sexual harassment claims against his former onscreen dad.
News of Warner’s sudden death has left fans and colleagues in shock.
‘That man gave us one of the greatest scenes in the history of television. I cannot even believe this. I am over here SOBBING! Rest in poetry, Malcolm Jamal Warner,’ one fan wrote on X.
Another tweeted: ‘Rest in power to Malcolm-Jamal Warner (1970–2025), who passed away on July 21, 2025, at age 54 from an accidental drowning. Forever our Theo Huxtable, a symbol of Black excellence, grace, and artistry. Your legacy shines on.’
Jamie Foxx was among the first Hollywood stars to pay tribute to Warner.
‘Speechless on this one rest in power, my brother,’ he wrote on Instagram, almost immediately after the news broke.
