They all knew. And the reason why no one properly took it any further is because Phil quite clearly has dirt on EVERYONE. The way they’re all bending over backwards for him is so obvious he has info he could dish out himself
Yeah, I rather think Schofield’s debauchery is the rule rather than the exception in media and entertainment circles. If it were not for his brother, I don’t think any fuss would’ve been made about the young runner. It’s only when THAT broke did focus shift to MM to bury it. Phil had come out as gay to the usual accolades and celebrations until that point.
