Eamonn Holmes, a familiar face on ITV, has recently made some bold statements about his former co-star Phillip Schofield. Holmes expressed his pride in being the one to bring Schofield's actions to light, as he returns to TV tonight on Channel 5's Cast Away after being away from the spotlight since his exit from This Morning.
Schofield, 62, left the popular morning show in 2023, amidst rumors of an affair with a younger colleague and a falling out with his co-host Holly Willoughby. Now, as he makes his comeback, he promises to speak his mind and hold nothing back. The three-part series will feature Schofield opening up about his struggles with mental health, taking a dig at Willoughby, and sharing his thoughts on his former employer, ITV.
Initially, when news of Schofield's return broke, Holmes had a harsh response. But now, he has taken it a step further, stating, "If I am one of the people who threw him under the bus, I am very proud to have done it and protected children, people who are underage." Co-host Isabel Webster clarified that Schofield's actions were not illegal, but Holmes argued that they were "ill-advised." He continued to criticize Schofield, saying, "This man is addicted to fame."
In the midst of their discussion, Holmes brought up an external review of This Morning, which found that ITV had made efforts to uncover the truth about the alleged affair, but found no evidence. Schofield, however, refused to participate in the probe due to health concerns. This is not the first time that Holmes has spoken out against his former co-star, as their alleged feud has been ongoing for years.
As for Schofield, he is looking forward to his time on Cast Away, saying, "I've recently had a lot of time to think about my life, what went right and what went wrong." He will be completely alone on a desert island, with only camera gear and some basic supplies. He will have the freedom to speak his mind, and he plans to use this opportunity to share his side of the story. Reflecting on his past actions, Schofield wonders if they were enough to completely destroy someone's career.
In the end, it seems like there is still tension between the two former colleagues, as Holmes continues to speak out against Schofield's actions. But regardless, both men have moved on to new projects. Holmes now hosts Breakfast with Eamonn and Isabel on GB News, while Schofield is back on TV with Cast Away and will soon be seen on This Morning once again. It will be interesting to see how their relationship evolves in the future.
