I believe that he had a relationship with Matthew McGreevy who would have exposed him had Phillip not come out as gay. Back in 2020 no one really knew about what was going on behind the scenes however it does seem rather strange as Philip was married for nearly 30 years before coming out. Of course some people do realize that they were gay later on in their life but I don't think that this is the case for Phillip Schofield. Also hiding the fact that his brother was on trial from Holly Willoughby is suspicious too. I expect more will be exposed in the coming weeks and I wouldn't be surprised if Phillip is branded as a sex predator Whether he is gay or not is a big question and as a resident alphabet mafia member I don’t believe he is. I think he used it as a defence to deflect off McGreevys potential accusations. No newspaper editor in the world will seek to take down someone whilst they beloved by millions for being brave and coming out. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see the grooming story resurfacing very soon. Edit: Before anyone says otherwise it is entirely possible for a man or woman to enjoy the company of the same sex, go home to their spouse and not consider themselves gay. What does 'resident alphabet mafia' mean?

"ALLEDGEDLY" Whilst there is no smoke without fire these rumours are literally just that , there are rumours about literally anyone doesn't make them true , there are even rumours about David Jason but hating someone based on rumours is ridiculous behaviour the sort of thing that caused Caroline Flacks death, The papers for whatever reason have been gunning for him since him and Holly and "jumped the queue" all seems a bit of a storm in a teacup to be honest much more pressing issues the media should be reporting on . The rumours against David Jason were I believe stirred up by Katherine Ryan and her comments on a potential predator in the television industry. It might not be David Jason, some people are speculating it could be Cliff, there has been some evidence to suggest that it is, however others are suggesting David Walliams and Russell Brand. Difference with this however is that there is undeniable evidence of this being the case with Schofield, there have been videos of him and the tea boy alone, Schofield following the tea boy on Twitter at age 15, hiring him on This Morning as a 16 year old and Schofield meeting him when he was 10. Therefore, it is not unreasonable to believe these rumours.
As for Holly I am absolutely outraged. I have no doubt that she is well aware of what he has done and is choosing to sacrifice Phillip at the expense of her career. Anyway, Schofield's behaviour is absolutely vile and he absolutely deserves all the hate he gets, plenty of old colleagues of his such as Ruth Langsford, Fearne Cotton, Eammonn Holmes and Amanda Holden have spoken ill of him since he joined the programme in 2002 and the smugness about him I think confirms this. He is a nasty piece of work and I also believe Holly should be held to account, and questioned if this grooming scandal ends up having legal action taken against Schofield.
The irony most of this situation took place after Savile...you would have thought TV networks would have known better

I think there will be some very uncomfortable ramifications in due course.

I think the pair of them are awful. Holly used this opportunity to enhance her career. Now that Phillip has been sacked the focus is on him. Meanwhile Phillip has done some nasty things like interrupting Holly and the interview with David Cameron in 2012 about the list of paedophiles was grim. The irony is that if the rumours surrounding Schofield and McGreevy are real then Schofield has behaved in a similar manner. Schofield also tried to conceal his brother's trisl from Holly further straining relations. Whether Schofield is gay or not he doesn't represent the gay community and is an insult to them because most gay people don't groom young children. This whole grooming scandal is also disgusting because he was having an affair whilst married to his wife. Phillip is also a hypocrite because in the trial he said 'I no longer have a brother' yet he did similar things. I don't normally pay attention to Phillip Schofield but now a lot more sinister things are known about him

WTF!!!!! I was wondering the timing about him coming out, just seemed very strange, as I feel someone was going to out him, but then he said he was in no relationship with anyone, so it just seemed strange, unless a past partner threatened to out him. On recent weeks I think there was something a bit more than the issue between him and Holly, that has not came out. The stuff with his brother has been in the press for a few months and they seemed ok then. Unless an affair also happened between Holly & Philip... All in all, not good for him, bit of a shame, remember the days watching him on Children's BBC, and Gordon the Golfer. I believe that he had a relationship with Matthew McGreevy who would have exposed him had Phillip not come out as gay. Back in 2020 no one really knew about what was going on behind the scenes however it does seem rather strange as Philip was married for nearly 30 years before coming out. Of course some people do realize that they were gay later on in their life but I don't think that this is the case for Phillip Schofield. Also hiding the fact that his brother was on trial from Holly Willoughby is suspicious too. I expect more will be exposed in the coming weeks and I wouldn't be surprised if Phillip is branded as a sex predator I would not be surprised Holly knew months ago, although maybe the bad air between them could be something else that could wreck her career why she is trying to distance herself from him.

To be honest depending on where this case is taken regarding the runner especially as the NDA is running out and I cannot see Schofield obtaining any work off the back of these recent revelations, it’ll all come out soon, and Holly could be implicated. As for Schofield in court he said that he didn’t inform the police of what his brother had told him back in 2021 relating to the grooming. Is his brother in on it? His brother has nothing to gain so he could very easily spill the beans about Phillip. Either way, not my place to speculate, rather watch on from a distance and watch Phillip Schofield crumble. As I’ve said before, it’s really concerning how we are back here after Savile.

Whilst I don't like the man, Philip Schofield is nothing like Savile as one is a prolific pedophile with 450 victims whilst the other groomed a child (still wrong however is nowhere near as bad as Savile) Unless I am proven wrong and more allegations come out against Philip. It might be unfolding like the Savile case but to a lesser extent, Savile just had that evil look, and prior to his death I'm sure that rumours were going round that he was a pedo until they surfaced after he died. Mind you it runs in the Schofield family with his brother sexually abusing minors so I wouldn't be surprised if Philip gets accused of the same

It’s down to ITV probably knowing the extent of Schofields behaviour but choosing not to act upon it.

As I’ve said before, it’s really concerning how we are back here after Savile. It doesn't surprise me. Many in the media industry for years have abused people and taken advantage due to their wealth. They seem to think that they are untouchable and because they have money they literally should have people at their disposal or queuing up to get a piece of them.

To be honest even outside of the scandal surrounding Phillip Schofield, this has really highlighted how many people on TV I am genuinely bored of seeing. I like how This Morning are switching it up in regards to presenters, but still, I think plenty of other shows should take a leaf out of their book.
A prime example of this was watching Eurovision. The tall blond lady was excellent (cannot remember her name), I'm sure we all know why the Ukrainian host was there and Graham Norton is a well loved TV presenter, but why was Alesha Dixon there? There are so many people both in the media and on TV who I find have done very little but somehow stay very relevant (and would have probably slipped into oblivion had they have not been hired). Kerry Katona, Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden etc. Britain's Got Talent really needs a rethink in terms of the judging panel, an entire new panel would be nice.
Bit off-topic here, but it would be nice if across the board the same people weren't always presenting everything. Some people have had their day and that's normal - but I think generally some new people would be nice.

Funny you mention Alesha, she was trending as a national Gem on both TikTok and Twitter and was regarded as the best of the team at Eurovision.

He quite often does or says offensive things and acts weird on BGT. Glad he left.

That being said if you're going to protect a nonce you're probably one yourself
