Shock for Phillip Schofield as Brother’s Sex Abuse Conviction Threatens TV Career

Friends of ITV’s Phillip Schofield fear the presenter could quit the small screen after his brother was convicted of sex abuse.

Brother Found Guilty

Timothy Schofield was found guilty on Monday following a trial that rocked the family. Phillip had already taken “pre-planned leave” from ITV’s This Morning amid the court case.

TV Future in Doubt

Close pals worry the scandal could end Phillip’s TV career. Meanwhile, ITV has promised a misconduct hearing “as soon as possible” regarding the related workplace issues. The ITV employee connected to the case was suspended back in December 2021.

Friends add: “We hope their privacy will now be respected.”
