Vanessa Feltz, former co-star and good friend of Phillip Schofield, recently spoke about his highly anticipated return to television after a 16-month hiatus. Schofield, who had been laying low since his departure from This Morning and his confession of an unwise but not illegal affair, is now making a comeback to the limelight. He has promised to share his side of the story and to speak his mind without any restrictions, while also facing a ten-day isolation on the show Cast Away.
Vanessa, who is also 62 years old, believes that this reality TV stint could be a risky move for Schofield, but she remains supportive of his decision. In an interview with The Agency, she said, "Whatever he does to make himself feel better, I wish him all the luck in the world." She also added that she hasn't watched the show yet, so she doesn't know how he will handle the isolation and whether it will be a good or bad experience for him.
Speaking about the risks involved in reality TV, Vanessa said, "Any reality TV show is a risk, that's the whole point. You could come out brilliantly and win everyone's hearts, or things could go wrong." However, she trusts Schofield's experience and professionalism in the TV industry and hopes that the show will have a positive impact on him and the viewers.
Vanessa also revealed that she had no idea about Schofield's return to television on the show Cast Away, but she is not surprised as he had been rumored to join other shows like Celebrity Big Brother and I'm A Celebrity. She further mentioned that she hasn't reached out to him since the news broke, as she believes in giving people their space and not jumping on the bandwagon of messaging.
The TV presenter, who left This Morning in 2023, also shared her thoughts on the changes that have occurred on the show after her and Schofield's departures. She mentioned that it was sad to see her friends leave, but she is happy for them and loves working with them. Vanessa has been a part of This Morning since 1992 and has a special bond with Schofield, as she was there on his first day of broadcasting.
Despite the changes, Vanessa feels that the show is in capable hands with the new hosts, Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley. She praised their talents and shared her love for the show, which she believes is bigger than the sum of its parts. Vanessa also expressed her devastation at the thought of anything happening to the show, as she has been a part of it for so long.
In conclusion, Vanessa showed her support and love for Schofield and the new hosts of This Morning, while also sharing her insights and thoughts on their respective careers. She ended the interview by saying that she is glad the show is in good hands and she wishes everyone involved all the success in the world.
