Phillip Schofield’s secret is none of our business, says VANESSA FELTZ
How wonderful to see my friend and This Morning fellow family member Phillip Schofield enfolded in a universal embrace of warmth and positivity. After many years his secret is out in the open. Obviously his family continues to adore him. His wife Stephanie remains devoted.
Wish you were a journalist, as I don't know where they get the people who write in newspapers, but you relate how I feel more than they do.
Nowadays journalism seems to be more about trying to dumb down society and telling us how to think, than relating to how most readers think.
His coming out as done a great disservice to the gay community. It is perpetuating unfair myths about gay men. It was done as the least worse option for him.
He always wanted to be a presenter/on tv. He used to pretend to be one when he was young. I think he was told that if he wanted to be a mainstream tv presenter, particularly on children’s tv, he would need to get married. At that time it would have been deemed unacceptable to be a gay man, which seems shocking and plain wrong now. There were of course gay men on tv at that time, but they had this overt camp image like Grayson and Inman. If a gay guy didn’t want to be a gay caricature, he would have been forced (if he wanted to have the career he had long dreamt of) to conform. And how better to conform than taking a wife. He has admitted that he knew he was gay when he married. He said he had wrestled with this for many years. We know that’s not true, why else would the showbiz world know he was gay?
He has left others in the gay community to fight the good fight, whilst he stayed on the down low. So he isnt brave, he was self serving, and a bit of a narcissistic twit to come out in that way on Friday.

Yes it is if he's grooming underage teens Vanessa.Phillip Schofield’s secret is none of our business, says VANESSA FELTZ

Now duck off.
It's been around since thread 1They are including it in EVERY article
I’m sorry this happened to you. I had some deeply unwelcome and inappropriate contact with PE teacher in secondary school aged 14/15. It was not particularly traumatic, I found it very weird and I felt uncomfortable. It did not go ‘too’ far but it was twice weekly for more than a year. It was kind of known and other teenagers and my peers used to take the piss. They’d muck about and ask if I’d been busy warming Sir up for example. Like you, I ended up ostracised when I tried to get help. Was told I encouraged the attention and was complicit by not vocally stopping him. I blamed for being tall for my age and physically mature. My parents used to tell me to stop being dramaticI hope it doesnt seem like Im saying its OK.
I was until these revelations a fan of PS.
I also had a teacher at school openly fancy me and try out the grooming techniques. I dont condone it. I did complain and it made me an outcast with the head of my school.
BUT I do think its like its a Witch Hunt too. Not from The Public prespective but the media. Saying nothing is doing no one favours.
For sure without any noise from TM the gossips in freefall and it is becoming ugly to read.
So why is TM or ITV not at least TRYING to defend him. They havent made even a mini statement about the rumours.
It can have a damaging affect to him and ok if he is guilty fine thats his consquences. BUT he had a wife and daughters. If we are shocked what exactly are they feeling. Probably very vunerable and theyre mental health is likely at crisis point.
Thats unfair on them. This would surely be a shock to all of them. His wife and 2 kids wouldnt surely have known all this?
Now when I talk to my own children about what happened they are incredulous that no one in authority including my parents expressed any concern or made any complaint.
Im sur
Id love Fern back.
Phil picked Holly. I think I rememeber reading that once. But Holly met her man on a kids tv show she presented. Fern and Phil had better friendship chemistry with naughty banter. Phil and Holly are more like a family chemistry. Tame banter.
Id love Fern back.
100% he's a bleeping insidious coward
Here's an article I posted the link to many threads ago
The bizarre beatification of Phillip Schofield
Is Schofield brave for coming out as gay? Get a grip.

I had a teacher groom and try to touch me inappropriately at school too. When I told my mum, she didn’t believe me and said it wasn’t possible. Never ever forgiven her.I’m sorry this happened to you.

I then was groomed at 15 in my Saturday job. The dirty bastard waited until I was 16 to take advantage. He was a middle aged manager and a pastor in his community.
Sending you lots of love by the way. We fight much better for this generation than anyone ever did for us.I’m sorry this happened to you.

I enjoyed that clip. They seemed good mates, and the banter seemed natural and that they genuinely enjoyed each other. When did he become a tosser?!
truth time, my first crush was PS back in the broom cupboard days
Many thanks SLawson98 Unfortunately I suppose when you're paying someone £30,000 you expect them to produce more than the bare truth hence the melodramatic pros and hand wringing! He could have had my input for a £5.00 and saved us all a sick bucket!
Bless you you sound very kind
This 'mentoring' nonsense is so obviously a massive hint, just think about how illogical it is. PS was known to the general public as a happily married family man for 27 years, but we are supposed to believe he just outed himself to the most menial of staff (runners) in order to 'help them with their sexuality'?
Doesn't this again contradict his subsequent interview where he said he was struggling with his sexuality to the point of feeling suicidal???
Surely you only comfortable giving advice or 'mentoring' younger LGBT people if you are out and proud yourself, otherwise you are just being a hypocrite. As a lesbian myself I wouldn't be seeking the advice of someone who was in a closeted relationship for 27 years, it's ridiculous to think we should believe that.
I think we all know what mentoring is a euphemism for.
Not to me I did watch him but he gave off a sexless vibe but Gordon he was fantastically charismatic!I enjoyed that clip. They seemed good mates, and the banter seemed natural and that they genuinely enjoyed each other. When did he become a tosser?!

Thread name suggestion ' If Phil didn't do a runner who did he gopher ? '
Philip Schofield #7 Any Teen Will Do.
It's the euphemism! So she must have know, and the production crew laughed. She left TM in 2009, so thats at least 11 years old.I enjoyed that clip. They seemed good mates, and the banter seemed natural and that they genuinely enjoyed each other. When did he become a tosser?!
