THE worst-kept secret in showbiz is finally out and Phillip Schofield’s career appears to be over.
Well, goodbye and good riddance! As a regular contributor to This Morning, I’ve had several run-ins with the sneering star.

He was almost always rude, judgmental and looked at his guests as if they’d just fallen out of a piece of cheese.
It’s astonishing he had the nerve to look down at others given the sordid secrets he was hiding.
Phil was forced to apologise over his affair with a much younger member of staff.
But it’s not just the affair that makes him contemptible.
I’ve been told he could be ghastly to runners and researchers, usually youngsters who needed the money and were scared to speak up.
Well, I’m an 81-year-old e-presenter with a few bob, so if I don’t get another TV job it’s not the end of the world.

ITV has to shoulder its share of the blame.
It says it investigated the rumours in 2020 and Phil and the employee denied any relationship.
But it’s difficult to believe no one knew.
If so, why was the decision made to move the young man to Loose Women? And who put him there?
Senior bods must be shaking in their boots — a reckoning is coming.
