I’m still really confused as to where the blackmail angle is coming from.
no paper was going to run a story suggesting he might be gay, not in this day and age!

a rumour is a rumour, he wasn’t held to ransom, even if he had be outed the person outing him would be the one to pay the price not him
he hasn’t murdered someone, just killed him marriage 🤷‍♀️

this will protect him from all negative press for a long time, no media outlet wants to be accused of being homophobic.

his brand is Mr nice guy, and he’s 100% secured that brand now.
Well you only have to look at Michael Barrymore to answer that question ?

I very much doubt he’s had to spend his adult life hiding. He hasn’t just ‘become’ gay overnight. He also doesn’t appear to have struggled with his life until recently either.
The point I was making that some celebrities, like Barrymore, came out as gay after having been married for years and turned into absolutely sleazy creeps. I don’t care what Phil’s sexuality is, I just hope he doesn’t become a parody of a gay man 🤷🏼‍♀️
A parody of a gay man being what?

It's a completely redundant thing to say. 😅

Him talking to camera at the start in the kitchen he’s basically a Schofield clone. He’s not got his own style at all even his hand gestures are the same as Philips


That’s the guy that’s it’s rumoured was going to out him...
Ooh I had no idea that was him 😳

so did Philip Schofield
Im saying that I have a first hand account of how much he enjoyed sex with a woman, saw them together etc-their relationship was totally under the radar so she would have nothing to gain by maintaining he loved sex with her etc. Perhaps he’s bi who knows I’m just saying that Walliams doesn’t use women as beards.

I’m so conflicted with how I feel about this. If he had made a statement saying I love my wife but I fancy other women and want to have sexual relations with other women would we be calling him brave?

he can’t live a lie, sure but I think as much yes, being gay is nothing To hide or be ashamed of, the celebration Of his bravery and coming out is perhaps disrespectful to his wife who must be questioning her whole life right now. So many angles...
[/QUOTE]
Well she was living this lie with him! who cares what his persuasion is only him? don't think anybody's gonna lose any sleep over it tbf....

Tbf I don't think the blackmail and press release thing was just here. I've seen it all over the place - some of the first comments on the DM article.
I think something forced his hand. Maybe not as dramatic as blackmail etc but there probably was a catalyst outside his control.
Thanks for that ! thought I was going mad ..something's not right It's clear to see!

Wasn't Queer as Folk on television around that time?
What happened to Toby Anstis and Otis the Aardvark?
Did Gordon the Gopher know about Schofe all along?
So many questions!
Bit later - 1999 according to IMBD.

I never watched it but my mum did. Not for very long though! She said to me "I had no idea they did stuff like THAT!" 🤣 Apparenty, it was pretty graphic.

She's still loves the gays though and is a massive (and I mean massive) Adam Lambert fan - from the minute she clapped eyes on him on American Idol 🌈

ETA - sorry, I thought you'd replied to my post 🙈 but it was someone else's.

Are people forgetting Caitlyn Jenner came out as trans with numerous children and while married? Times used to be a lot different, being gay wasn't spoken about so much or widely accepted. I am not a fan of Phillip, in fact, don't watch UK tv but I just feel it's a bit unfair to question WHY and WHEN someone comes out. I am straight so no idea how that journey would be but I am going to guess not an easy one.

I am not trying to start anything. I like that on Tattle we can have discussions and different opinions. Maybe I am just trying to be optimistic in a world that has seemed so shit recently. Haha.
Not at all times have certainly changed.

you realise this was 19/20 years ago right? And included a pool and a dead body?
He was headline news yesterday still trying to clear his name so ??
