NDAs don't prevent someone reporting crimes.

I thought Phil had denied the existence of an NDA? Or was this signed after he said that?
Very good point
He’s a bloody liar
The BBC’s Amol Rajan asked: “Do you know if he has signed an NDA, a non-disclosure agreement, preventing him from speaking?”
Schofield said: “Did I make him sign an NDA? No, absolutely not.”
He also said there is no injunction or any NDA preventing media coverage of their relationship and that his former lover was not paid off for his silence.
Key points from Phillip Schofield interviews: ‘No NDA, no injunction’ and more
The tell-all interviews follow his exit from This Morning last week after he admitted to an ‘unwise but not illegal’ relationship.
I don't expect the deal was offered to him in a polite, non-pressured way. Philth probably personally guilt-tripped him about how his (Philth's) career would be ruined if it all came out too.
I think this seemed to have been signed after he gave those interviews to the sun and BBC. He got out there to tell his side then signed an NDA from both sides to say neither of them would discuss it in the future. That’s my understanding from what the DM says today anyway but it’s not explicitly said when it was signed
Probable has some dirt on her
A super injunction is a world apart from an NDA. That's when courts decide something must never be spoken about, even the existence of it.
Still it's nice to see philip and holly back on the front cover, been the main story for the last 6 or so hours on the mail

We all need to remember that the victim here was very young and vulnerable. It's not his fault that he was pushed into taking this because I very much doubt that anyone was able to support him over it.
Absolutely and I think it will have been sold to him, if you sign this it will all go away and no one can talk about it anymore. You’ll be set for life with the money and can keep your anonymity.
I get the feeling that MM fell deeply (as he was groomed to do), so Philth wanted sex and fun, but for MM it was much deeper. Eamon said in interviews that he had helped MM as he was not in good place. The payout fully confirms what happened, but I believe MM has struggled with the aftermath, and probably never wanted to sell his story. I Hope he goes on to better relationships and can put this all behind him. Sure the money will set him up, but probably feels like 'dirty' money
Of course Philth doesnt think he’s done anything wrong, he’s a malignant narcissist. Nothing is ever his fault and he has a desperate need to control the narrative as we saw when it was all kicking off. He’s been swanning around London with his Twinkie mates like cock of the walk, smug as anything without a care in the world. If he hasn’t done anything wrong why the need to gag MM? There has to be a reason this is all coming out now, I don’t believe he was doing CBB as ITV won’t touch him with a barge pole. Maybe there’s more scandal to come? Another victim coming out of the wood work perhaps?
I think there's more to come
I'd wager there's more than one NDA out there. When the MM story broke you can see some more victims coming forward.

I've lost a little bit of respect for MM taking the money,if I'm honest
A tad harsh I think. I'd like to think I could never be paid off but I wouldn't judge others just because I'm a stubborn, pig-headed, bite-your-nose-off-to-spite-your-face kind of person. I probably would have signed the NDA, taken the money, then sold my story to The Sun. duck it. Put me in prison then.I've lost a little bit of respect for MM taking the money,if I'm honest

He was groomed. He is the victim and an amount of money like that will set him up for his future. I have nothing but sympathy for him and hope he is happy and well.
Maybe he had no choice.I've lost a little bit of respect for MM taking the money,if I'm honest

The outcome of MM spilling the beans, might result in a more fatal consequence than a prison sentence.A tad harsh I think. I'd like to think I could never be paid off but I wouldn't judge others just because I'm a stubborn, pig-headed, bite-your-nose-off-to-spite-your-face kind of person.

He just wanted it all to go away. We know the press kept hassling him to sell his side of the story, now there’s an NDA in place they can longer approach him. Of course he could have made a fortune selling his side of the story but he genuinely wants anonymity.I've lost a little bit of respect for MM taking the money,if I'm honest
Even with an NDA, MM could still speak to the police and if they discover he was underage, groomed, subject to coercive control. In other words a victim of crime the NDA as I understand would be worthless.
A police investigation could result in other victims coming forward
Schofield probably isn't sleeping that soundly at night, and I hope never does
