Yes, it's a definite press practice. When they can't run the real story - I'm not sure on the exact rules but I don't think they can actually just directly "out" someone - they can tap dance around it. Often, you'll see a story that appears to make no sense or have no context or they'll be a flurry of inconsequential articles and then eventually the real story will come out*Yes. 'Loose Women'. His move was covered in The Mirror in December, I think. Strange for a runner on a programme to attract an article about their job change in a national newspaper. I think the Mirror was trying to give hints.
Yes agreed. Strange is certainly the word. Whatever happens, she better get a good divorce lawyer because with all the work and adverts he has had, he must be worth a fortune.Well his wife must be the most money hungry woman on the planet to set herself up for that humiliation! that would be a PR stunt too far for me anyway....And if they do stay together they'll be nothing but a laughing stock the public sympathy card won't last long ,as they'll both be seen as "living the lie" but there is something strange about the whole thing for sure....
Called itHe’s done an interview in the sun today! (Sunday)
Definitely agree with you on all points. His entire family and group of friends will have known for years. Him and his wife probably effectively live separate lives and come together for public events.Yes, it's a definite press practice.
I think that's why PS has lost weight - not because he's struggling with his sexuality at all (he's clearly been out for YEARS) but because he knew it was all going to come out and he didn't want the public knowing

London schools are on half term holidays from 17-21 February 2020.Is it school holidays on London next week? though.
I think the whole thing is forced and staged
I sense a huge bombshell !!Lots about this on Twitter, apparently the interview video on YouTube has been taken down, a Journalist site has gone, MM Twitter account has shut down.
Don't think this is going to end well for PS, think they may be an awful lot of skeletons to come out of his closet yet!!
Same as us then, I know sometimes they differ. I also believe Eamonn and Ruth were forced into that situation. Be interesting to see what the next week brings.London schools are on half term holidays from 17-21 February 2020.
You are right on the money with it being forced and staged. Eamonn Holmes looked reluctant and uncomfortable. They must be sick of the amount of trouble PS has caused in the last year.
I think it's the beginning of the end for him tbh...See, that's my theory on this. I think that everyone around him on GM knew about this for ages and were OK with it. Kind of, "yeah, his life, up to him and not my business". But more recently, deffo within this past year, something has happened that made his colleagues no longer OK with his behaviour (in regards to his sexuality). Maybe he got too cocky(no pun intended) or messed that MM guy about too much and they couldn't stomach PS's hypocrisy. It's very messy and sure to get worse. I think he'll need to take leave.
But will she enjoy the shame ? if she did go along with this charade she deserves everything that's coming to her...In other words, he is. In Friday's programme he as much as said he wasn't interested at the moment. Doesn't half change his story does old Phil
He has told the Sun that he knew he was gay when he got married. Why get married then? To make sure his sexuality didn't hamper his career. That is all PS is interested in. Himself and his career. I wonder if his wife knew and the whole thing has been agreed between them. It would be nobody's business, except by announcing it on a national tv program, they have made it everybody's business. This has been worked out by a damage limitation team, no doubt and his wife is complicit in it. She has enjoyed the lifestyle and fame by association.
There's often a grain of truth in some blind items.Yes, it's a definite press practice. When they can't run the real story - I'm not sure on the exact rules but I don't think they can actually just directly "out" someone - they can tap dance around it.

I think this is what was happening with PS. The leakage started with Amanda Holden breaking rank and JGM have been trying to hold back the tide (unsuccessfully) ever since - the negative articles just kept coming and the press finally got what they wanted. I think that's why PS has lost weight - not because he's struggling with his sexuality at all (he's clearly been out for YEARS) but because he knew it was all going to come out and he didn't want the public knowing

THIS.Just read the Sun on Sunday interview.
Absolute stage managed PR bleeping BULLSHIT. Every word.
I really hope it's all over for you Schofield, you bleeping LIAR. Unfortunately it won't be though as the stupid masses who watch your ITV shows and vote for you at the NTA's think you are "brave" and feel sorry for you. Exactly the same as Ant. He nearly killed a kid yet still wins an NTA!! bleeping chavs.
It makes me SICK.
