Eamonn Holmes has launched his latest tirade against his former This Morning co-star Phillip Schofield. The presenter has been vocal about his fellow broadcaster's downfall after Phillip admitted to an affair with a much younger ITV colleague.

Philip Schofield has slammed accusations of 'toxicity' at This Morning, and strenuously denied he is a bully, following his affair revelations.The show’s former resident doctor, Dr Ranj Singh, hit out at a “toxic” culture at the flagship ITV daytime show, saying he raised concerns about “bullying and discrimination” two years ago when he worked there – and afterwards felt like he was “managed out” for whistleblowing. Former This Morning presenter Eamon Holmes also told GB News this week that "the toxicity is you", referring to Phillip, and criticising his "controlling, coercive behaviour." In a letter on Wednesday, ITV boss Dame Carolyn McCall said that an external review conducted following a complaint made by Dr Ranj found “no evidence of bullying or discrimination”.

This Morning's Holly Willoughby was on holiday in Portugal when she discovered a barrister had been appointed to investigate Phillip Schofield's affair with a young ITV co-worker.

K.J. Yossman ITV CEO Carolyn McCall has been asked to give evidence to the Parliamentary committee for Culture, Media and Sport (CMS) over an affair between former ITV anchor Phillip Schofield and a young employee. The CMS Committee requested McCall’s presence in a letter published today. Read the full letter below: Thank you for your letter of 31 May 2023 setting out ITV’s response to the reports of a relationship between Phillip Schofield and a young employee on the This Morning programme.The Committee regards the media industry’s duty of care towards its staff a matter of the highest importance. Whilst the recent coverage focuses on the Schofield case, it also raises fundamental issues about safeguarding and complaint handling both at ITV and more widely across the media. These issues should, particularly in the case of Public Service Broadcasters, be open to scrutiny.The public must have confidence in the robustness of Public Service Broadcasters’ safeguarding procedures. Whilst these are issues that we want to discuss first with ITV, we will also consider them in our regular scrutiny sessions with other Public Service Broadcasters, including the BBC later this month and Channel 4 later in the year.With this in mind, we look forward to meeting with you at 10am on Wednesday 14th June so that we can raise these issues with you directly. This will enable the session previously scheduled with ITV and other commercial Public Service Broadcasters on 6th June to focus on its intended purpose of scrutinising the Government’s draft Media Bill.It is incumbent upon all media organisations to demonstrate how seriously they take their responsibilities and your appearance before the Committee will enable ITV to do so.

Phillip Schofield is reportedly selling his lavish £1million flat, where he used to have secret trysts with the much younger man with whom he had an affair.The former This Morning star currently owns the property with his wife Stephanie, and has reportedly put it on the market for £1.2million, which is the same price they paid to purchase the penthouse in 2012.The flat is thought to be the same one referenced by Eamonn Holmes in his bombshell GB News interview in which he accused ITV of covering-up the affair. Speaking to Dan Wotton, Eamonn said that Phillip and his lover would have “playtime” on Thursdays when they “hit the town” and “stay overnight” together.

ITV bosses could be facing a grilling by MPs during a meeting where ITV will give evidence on the Culture, Media and Sport committee.The meeting, which was arranged before Phillip Schofield quit This Morning and admitted to an affair, will be about updating broadcasting rules in the new Media Bill. However, after ITV’s ongoing drama with the former This Morning presenter, it is thought MP’s will likely focus on the broadcaster's recent revelations and the work environment which has been called “toxic” by previous employees.

Rumours of a feud between Phillip Schofield and Ruth Langsford first emerged back in 2019 after claims she was "cut off" during a live segment on Loose Women.

Now during an interview with GB News's Dan Wotton, former This Morning presenter Eamonn has accused ITV of lying as he asked: "Have you seen the film?" To which Dan answered: "There was no film." Eamonn continued: "Well apparently they were there to make that, that's the official line given by the editor of the programme.They were there to make a film.
